IIRC most of mass comes from quantum electrodynamical interactions. About 5 per cent is due to Higgs field interactions.
Google: "youtube susskind higgs" for some lectures on higgs interactions and some implications of them. One of them is my source for this.
They throw out hundreds or thousands of collisions for each datum they keep. So they have billions of events stored as data out of many trillions of mostly-boring collisions so far. This cherry-picked data may have something to do with it.
640 kg in, say, 640 1kg dirty bombs wouldn't need to be nuclear, only radioactive. Might be enough to "dirty-up" a whole lot of china's land.
Wolfram puts mars escape velocity at about 5000m/s, just under half that of earth.

Hawking thought this when he discovered/derived Hawking radiation from black holes. "Virtual" particles popping into existance exactly at the event horizon. Rather than annihilating as such particles typically do, one falls in and the other is released from the black hole.
This is a somewhat simplified account but the realization of virtual particles has been "known" for a few decades. Search youtube for "Susskind Black Hole" for a lecture series, about 16ish hours of material on this phenomenon.
This is an interesting development. Thanks for the links.
We could call it whatever we like but "higgsoid object"
www.google.com/search?q=higgsoid+object&client=ms-opera-mini-iphone&channel=new&gws_rd=cr&hl=en&sa=X&&as_q&nfpr=1&spell
has no search results whereas "higgs-like object"
www.google.com/m?q=higgs-like+object&client=ms-opera-mini-iphone&channel=new
returns useful results. That's close to the term the popular media ascribed to the phenomenon when it was discovered and is close enough to the terminology in the journals to find the scientific papers involved without much extra effort.
Your call as to what you would like to call it though.
Undergrad so take this with a grain of salt.
They found something that looks like a higgs, smells like a higgs, and even quacks like a higgs while looking in the higgs-pond. They, afaict, have not yet measured its quantum-spin as being zero which would confirm it's indeed a higgs.
If the higgs-like object that was discovered is truly A higgs, it may or may not be THE higgs of the standard model. The newly discovered decay channel of the higgs-like object seems to point toward the standard model and a few other frameworks which others here know in far greater detail than I.
Now they need to measure the spin...
There was a link to a paper in phys.org's coverage yesterday. I read the coverage but I haven't had time to check the paper out.

Most microwaves have a power control. 90 seconds at power 2 or 3, wait 1 minute. Flip, 1 minute at full power. Wait 3 minutes. Serve.
There exist websites and books devoted to this appliance and how to use it correctly. This is a non-story.
Caveat: there are some nice physics going on in the explanation but only for the layman. Look elsewhere for the gritty detail we
Undergrad here. So the base case is taken care of and you call your translation function recursively. What's the difficulty here?
