This is a guest commentary. See Mark Wise's bio below. The Higgs boson is an integral part of our understanding of nature. It is a particle that is an excitation of what is called the Higgs field. The ...

At a meeting held at CERN this morning, scientists presented the latest results from the search for the long-sought Higgs particle. After 30 years of research and $9 billion of investment, they’ve ...

July marks the five-year anniversary of CERN announcing its discovery of the Higgs boson particle and in the years since, physicists have pored over data and additional research to develop a better ...

Ten years ago, scientists announced the discovery of the Higgs boson, which helps explain why elementary particles (the smallest building blocks of nature) have mass. For particle physicists, this was ...

Ten years after the discovery of the Higgs boson, the ATLAS experiment at CERN probes its kinematic properties with a significantly larger dataset from 2015–2018 and provides further insights on its ...

In fact, the first tantalizing evidence is already in and we take a look. The discovery of the Higgs boson ten years ago in the Large Hadron Collider was the culmination of decades of work and the ...

This month 40 years ago Peter Higgs wrote two papers that might explain the origins of mass. However, as Peter Rodgers discovers, he is reluctant to take too much of the credit Looking back Peter ...

Ten years ago scientists announced one of the most momentous discoveries in physics: the Higgs boson. The particle, predicted 48 years earlier, was the missing piece in the Standard Model of particle ...

In the early days of the twentieth century, particle physics was in its infancy, with only two types of particles known: the proton and the electron. From the 1930s on, physicists were inundated by a ...
