Brian Cox gave a very strong hint about it last week at a non-public meeting, but scientists' protocol prevented him from saying more. I suspect it'll be less than the 5 sigma they're looking for, but combined with the Tevatron data it'll be over 5 sigma.

Quote from CERN's Chief Scientist, "if we are looking for a dog and we find one that meows, that’s not one discovery but two".

Can't argue with that.

I hadn't seen the Tevatron announcement when I posted it .. I'd love CERN to announce they have created a miaowing dog tomorrow.
