Sometimes I get the basic gist of it. This is one of those times when I don't. I don't understand exactly what's being calculated and why it takes a super-computer to calculate it. Just because a large size-difference is spanned, so what? They give the example of the difference in size between a bacterium and the solar system. Ok, we can state the difference in size between a bacterium and our solar system, and we don't need a computer at all to do that.
One hydrogen atom is much smaller than a bacterium... and a galaxy is much larger than our solar system, and yet here it is: 5x10^68 hydrogen atoms in a galaxy. Viola! No super-computer needed.
(Ok, ok, I already admitted I don't understand the posted article.)

If the balance had started out the other way, anti-matter would be more common and would be “matter” while what we call matter, would be the “anti-matter”. Electrons would have a positive charge while protons would be negatively charged.

Example of Zen Buddhist kaons:
“What is the sound of one hand clapping?”
Unfortunately, this does not form matter, only nothingness.

...decay described in the paper took place in a kaon, a particle far smaller than an atom. The scientists followed the decay process as the kaon split into two pions, even smaller particles. The length of the decay process spanned nearly 18 orders of magnitude, a range they compared to the difference between the size of a single bacterium and the size of our entire solar system.Whoa! Great post - thanks.

I didn’t see “Higgs boson” anywhere in the article.
