Higgs boson - Wikipedia Both the field and the boson are named after physicist Peter Higgs, who in 1964, along with five other scientists in three teams, proposed the Higgs mechanism, a way for some particles to acquire mass
Higgs boson: The God Particle explained - Space The Higgs boson is a fundamental particle discovered on July 4, 2012, by researchers at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) located at CERN, Switzerland
The Higgs boson - CERN Discovering the Higgs boson was just the beginning In the ten years since, physicists have examined how strongly it interacts with other particles, to see if this matches theoretical predictions
Higgs boson | Physics, Particle Physics Standard Model | Britannica The Higgs field is different from other fundamental fields—such as the electromagnetic field —that underlie the basic forces between particles First, it is a scalar field; i e , it has magnitude but no direction
Peter Higgs - Wikipedia In 1964, Higgs was the single author of one of the three milestone papers published in Physical Review Letters (PRL) that proposed that spontaneous symmetry breaking in electroweak theory could explain the origin of mass of elementary particles in general and of the W and Z bosons in particular
Whats so special about the Higgs boson? - CERN The particle that we now call the Higgs boson first appeared in a scientific paper written by Peter Higgs in 1964 At that time, physicists were working on describing the weak force – one of the four fundamental forces of Nature – using a framework called quantum field theory
How did we discover the Higgs boson? - CERN The Higgs boson was discovered, almost 50 years after first being proposed, by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations at CERN in 2012 But why did it take so long to find it? With a mass of more than 120 times that of the proton, the Higgs boson is the second-heaviest particle known today
