The Higgs boson, predicted theoretically since the 1960s, was finally detected in 2012 at the CERN laboratory in Europe. As a quantum field it permeates all of space, through which other particles ...

Discovered at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in 2012, the elusive Higgs boson particle has been at the centre stage for ...

Since the launch of the Large Hadron Collider, there has been ongoing research there into Higgs bosons and a search for ...

Since the launch of the Large Hadron Collider, researchers have been studying Higgs bosons and searching for signs of physics ...

Does it decay into something more exotic ... but because understanding why the mass of the electron, which the Higgs boson is responsible for, has that particular value is of huge importance to our ...

The decay of a charged kaon into a pion and neutrinos is intriguing ... Bosons, such as the photon or Higgs boson, are responsible for the interactions between particles. Although highly successful, ...

a magnetic relative of the mass-defining Higgs Boson particle, the team reports in the online edition of the journal Nature. The detection a decade ago of the long-sought Higgs Boson became central to ...

The British scientist has been selected to lead the largest particle physics laboratory in the world, Europe’s CERN ...

Thomson is no stranger CERN: he worked at a major experiment there in the 1990s, and helped to discover the Higgs boson at ...

Peter Higgs, a giant of British science who came up with the idea of the Higgs boson particle, has died aged 94. He was awarded the Nobel prize for Physics in 2013 for his revolutionary work ...

WIRED is where tomorrow is realized. It is the essential source of information and ideas that make sense of a world in constant transformation. The WIRED conversation illuminates how technology is ...
