gollark: Wikipedia, source of all knowledge, says that "On 4 July 2012, the discovery of a new particle with a mass between 125 and 127 GeV/c2 was announced; physicists suspected that it was the Higgs boson.[21][22][23] Since then, the particle has been shown to behave, interact, and decay in many of the ways predicted for Higgs particles by the Standard Model, as well as having even parity and zero spin,[6][7] two fundamental attributes of a Higgs boson."
gollark: You can prove that that follows from axioms, yes, I forgot that.
gollark: You can just say that your theory is consistent with current information.
gollark: You can't 100% *prove* anything.
gollark: At least, observations suggest that it is a particle which exists and does things.
