Hi there, I need to make this quick, so I can't really flesh my question out. It's about Higgs Singlets and CTCs, closed time-like curves. Two friends of mine are convinced they saw an article confirming Higgs Singlets were created by the LHC and detected before they could have been emitted. All I found were some essays in which Thomas J. Weiler (you might know him from "neutrinos are faster than light! wait they aren't...") et al. constructed a model which would allow them to exist. These theses were way over my level of understanding both the english language and particle physics, so I need you folks to figure out if this is mad physicist science fiction or actually probable. Did anyone see the article my friend mentioned? If yes, was it in a believable context or April's fool day or just some amateur scientist/journalist who misunderstood that "construct a model... time-traveling Higgs singlets... may well be observable" doesn't equal "HEUREKA!" If they are possible and could be created, how could they possibly be detected by the detector which is not yet at the place where they'll be created in the future?! "we don't serve your kind here" the barkeeper says, a time-traveller walks into a bar.
