The Higgs Boson weight issue
"A recalculation of the mass of an elementary particle, the W boson, has increased the tension between measurements from competing particle collider experiments."
- W boson mass of about 80,360 MeV - CERN Alice
- W boson mass 80,434 MeV - US Fermilab

I suppose everyone is looking for a constant in a chaos universe that fits into the standard model. The speed of light seems to be a Constant that we most identify, E=MC squared it works for everything that we have observed so far, but is it that in all the Universe or Universes.
With the Fermi Lab being shutdown now its hard to perform the measurement again. However as the article stipulates that all of the documentation of how this measurement at Femi was completed and at the CERN Alice this has not been published to compare procedures. I am sure that we are going to discover new and conflicting data that does not always fit into the standard model.
Look just happened with the James Webb telescope, galaxies appearing where there should not belong in time/space according to the Big Bang theory or at least we think they are galaxies.
I am just a fan sitting on the sidelines amazed at all of it.
