Ten years ago, jubilant physicists working on the world's most powerful science experiment, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, announced the discovery of the Higgs boson — a particle that ...

The Higgs boson discovery dominated headlines around the globe. About half a million people tuned in to watch the livestreamed announcement, and footage from the event appeared on more than 5,000 ...

Ten years ago, on July 4 2012, the ATLAS and CMS collaborations at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) announced the discovery of a new particle with features consistent with those of the Higgs boson ...

So studying the Higgs boson is vital to working out whether there is physics to be discovered beyond the standard model. Eventually, the LHC will run into the same problem as the Tevatron did.

Cern announces discovery of Higgs boson 'God particle' It has taken nearly 50 years and cost £2.6bn. Now, at last, the Higgs boson particle has been found - and a new chapter in our understanding ...

July 4, 2012 — -- The head of the European Center for Nuclear Research says its teams have discovered a new particle that is consistent with the Higgs boson -- a subatomic particle considered ...

In a culmination of 50 years of theoretical speculation and three weeks of intense media frenzy, two teams of researchers at the European Organization for Nuclear Research said they had ...

Ten years after the Higgs boson was discovered, a lot is still unknown But progress made since 2012 to determine its properties have allowed physicists to make big steps forward in our ...

The discovery of the Higgs boson by the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) would profoundly affect physicists, with implications for the Standard Model, the electroweak force, supersymmetry and more.

On July 4, 1776, the Continental Congress adopted the Declaration of Independence, proclaiming that the United States was no ...

Researchers have discovered a new particle that is a magnetic relative of the Higgs boson. Whereas the discovery of the Higgs boson required the tremendous particle-accelerating power of the Large ...

The Higgs boson is what gives objects mass — so you have quantum physics to blame for not fitting into those jeans. (Illustration by Leah Tiscione)All week, in bars across the country, men and ...
