Physicists at CERN in Geneva believe that they have discovered the Higgs
Particle --the probable explanation for electrons and quarks etc. having mass.

I have a question regarding this: could the Higgs Particle be the
explanation for why we have a matter-based universe as opposed to an
anti-matter based universe? Have there been any experiments showing the
prescence of the Higgs Particle in anti-matter? Please tell me if I'm way
off on this one --particle physics isn't exactly my forte.
