The recent discovery of the Higgs boson, a previously only-theorized particle whose existence would validate the currently accepted model of why things have mass, has had enormous implications for ...

Imagine a particle so elusive, so rare, that it’s difficult even to catch a glimpse of it. That’s the challenge researchers face when they try to study the Higgs boson, a fundamental particle—also ...

The Higgs boson self-coupling is a phenomenon where the Higgs interacts with itself, which can manifest in particle ...

Physicists involved in experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have presented evidence of a new particle that may prove to be the long-sought Higgs boson. It remains to be seen, however, ...

As the finding are announced, physicists shed tears reflecting on the decades of work that brought them to the momentous occasion Scientists at the world's biggest atom smasher hailed the discovery of ...
