I could nit pick about some of the science
but I won't as it's such a good story!
(Just one thing though, to be pedantic - it's not called the Higgs-Boson particle. It's just the Higgs boson. A boson is a type of particle which obeys Bose-Einstein statistics, and this particular one was proposed by a man named Peter Higgs. It's the major missing part of the Standard Model of particle physics, and it's expected that the LHC may find evidence for its existence, as in the story)
