Higgs boson

Higgsboson Higgs-Boson Higgs-boson English 2012 July 6 2013 July 6 2014 July 6 2015 July 6 Etymology From en Higgs + en boson; en British physicist Peter Higgs = 1, who is credited with proposing what is now called the en Higgs mechanism. 1 en Benjamin W. Lee Korean-American theoretical physicist is generally credited with having coined the term. Pronunciation en LL-Q1860 (eng)-Vealhurl-Higgs boson.wav Southern England Noun en Q402 en particle An elementary particle in the Standard Model, namely a boson with zero spin, that gives mass to other particles. en mul:h<id:Q402><qq:symbol> en God particle<id:Q402><qq:informal> Higgs particle<id:Q402> Higgson<id:Q402> higgson<id:Q402> en 1987 Robert N.

If it were much more massive, a problem would occur. Since Higgs bosons interact with particles with a large mass, Higgs bosons would also interact with themselves (as they have mass too). This “self interaction” puts an upper limit on the mass of the Higgs boson as less than about 500-1000 GeV. en 2011 Christopher G.
