HIGGS BOSON: ANTICIPATION, SEARCH, AND DISCOVERY

Abstract:
The 2013 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded jointly to well-known European physicists — Belgian François Englert and British Peter W. Higgs “for the theoretical discovery of a mechanism that contributes to our understanding of the origin of mass of subatomic particles, and which recently was confirmed through the discovery of the predicted fundamental particle, by the ATLAS and CMS experiments at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider”.
Keywords: Nobel Prize, Higgs boson, Large Hadron Collider.
