Hi,

I want to see if that Higgs Field exists. If so, then there may be a particle which feels this field in the manner of an anti-graviton - anti-gravity!

There may be more than one anti-graviton as there are more than one of other sorts of bosons, eg those for the electro-weak force.

Then we could have a force which is weak over short distances but stronger over long distances, and more effective over the sorts of huge distances from us to the observational horizon.

So, when the universe was young, this force was not so effective, but later, became observable. It is a bit like my waistline really.

Cheers
