One sometimes wonder if news outlets have done away completely with copy editors, who should catch obvious mistakes and typos such as this.
This morning, while browsing through the news, I stumbled upon the Economist page reporting the Nobel Prizes, and had a chuckle with the title line read "Higgs's Bosuns". Maybe this is on purpose, I don't know, because the rest of the article had the correct spelling. Still, there's nothing in the article to imply anything about Higgs's "bosuns".
Zz.

I think it's a pun based on the way that many English people (including those who work for the BBC) pronounce boson.
