The significance of the Higgs boson in completing the Standard Model from "summary" of The God Particle by Leon M. Lederman,Dick Teresi
The Higgs boson is a crucial piece of the puzzle in the grand scheme of particle physics. It is the missing link that completes the Standard Model, the theoretical framework that describes the fundamental particles and forces that make up the universe. Without the Higgs boson, the Standard Model would be incomplete, leaving unanswered questions about the nature of mass and the fundamental interactions between particles.
The significance of the Higgs boson lies in its role in giving particles mass. According to the Standard Model, particles gain mass by interacting with the Higgs field, a field that permeates all of space. The Higgs boson is the particle associated with this field, and its discovery confirmed the existence of this crucial mechanism for giving particles their mass.
The discovery of th...
