The Discovery of the Higgs Boson

The Discovery of the Higgs Boson

From the University of Edinburgh School of Physics and Astronomy with Christos Leonidopoulos and Luigi Del Debbio

The discovery of a new fundamental particle at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), CERN is the latest step in a long quest seeking to answer one of physics’ most enduring questions: why do particles have mass? The experiments’ much anticipated success confirms predictions made decades earlier by Peter Higgs and others, and offers a glimpse into a universe of physics beyond the Standard Model.
