Although its existence had been theorized for decades, the Higgs boson was finally observed to exist in 2012 at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. Since then, it has continued to be heavily ...

Often referred to as the "God Particle," a nickname popularized by physicist Leon Lederman in his 1993 book The God Particle, the term was never meant to imply any religious significance. In fact, ...

Scientists at CERN’s ATLAS experiment have uncovered compelling evidence of Higgs bosons decaying into muons, an incredibly rare event that could deepen our understanding of how particles acquire mass ...

Imagine a particle so elusive, so rare, that it's difficult even to catch a glimpse of it. That's the challenge researchers face when they try to study the Higgs boson, a fundamental particle—also ...

Higgs Boson Collection is a trilogy of brain-bending puzzle games where every rotation counts and every second matters. Your mission? Guide mysterious spheres through a precise network of pathways — ...

Nearly four decades ago, researchers at CERN identified a massive, electrically neutral particle known as the Z boson. This was a big breakthrough in particle physics, as the Z boson is responsible ...
