The implications of the Higgs boson for our understanding of the universe from "summary" of The God Particle by Leon M. Lederman,Dick Teresi
The discovery of the Higgs boson is a monumental achievement in the field of particle physics. This tiny particle, often referred to as the "God particle," is the missing piece in the Standard Model of particle physics, which describes the fundamental particles and forces that make up the universe. The existence of the Higgs boson helps to explain how particles acquire mass, a crucial aspect of our understanding of the universe.
By interacting with other particles, the Higgs boson gives them mass, which in turn allows them to form the structures we see in the universe, such as galaxies, stars, and planets. Without the Higgs boson, particles would move at the speed of light and would not be able to come together to form matter. This concept provides insight into the fundamental nature of the universe and ...
