Since its 2012 detection, the Higgs boson has fascinated researchers for its unique role in separating forces of nature. Find ...

This time, physicists, including core UCLA researchers, have accurately measured the mass of the W boson — more precisely ...

An interdisciplinary team led by Boston College physicists has discovered a new particle—or previously undetectable quantum excitation—known as the axial Higgs mode, a magnetic relative of the ...

"The Higgs boson was the last missing fundamental particle of the Standard Model. Its discovery was a turning point for physics for two reasons. Firstly, it demonstrates the mechanism of how ...

And it’s all down to the instability of a single fundamental particle: the Higgs boson. In new research by me and my colleagues, just accepted for publication in Physical Letters B, we show that some ...

Kennesaw State University researchers Nikolaos Kidonakis and Marco Guzzi have received their second joint grant from the ...

The CMS experiment at CERN is the latest to weigh in on the mass of the W boson—an elementary particle that, along with the Z ...

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 ...

the Higgs boson. But what is the elusive subatomic particle – which has also been called the “God particle” – and what ...

Without the Higgs boson to give matter mass and weight, there could be no Standard Model universe. The particle is part of many theoretical equations underpinning scientists’ understanding of ...
