The Higgs Boson is a subatomic particle, such as that has zero or no spin and follows the statistical description given by S. N. Bose and Einstein. The Higgs Boson theory was discovered in 1964 by a Dr. name Peter Higgs who came up with the idea of the Higgs field which keeps everything in balance and keeps electrons from flying everywhere. When the Higgs Boson theory first came out to other scientist they all thought that Mr. Higgs was crazy because they knew that gravity held everything in its place and that electrons couldn’t escape. The Higgs Boson is what gives other particles it mass because it combines them together to give them mass, but the mass isn’t just given to them they have to enter the Higgs Field. When Peter Higgs first thought of the theory everyone thought he was just saying things until he came up with an equation that solved his theory and soon every scientist started to figure out what is it, how it worked, what’s its purpose. Mr. Higgs was certain that his theory was real and that other particles got mass from the Higgs Field which is made of the Higgs Boson. The Higgs Boson was recently discovered in 2012 at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at Cern, in Switzerland.
The people who was searching and found the Higgs Boson were excited that they finally proved Mr. Higgs theory as true for all of their hard work and dedication to the theory they were rewarded with the Nobel Prize in Physics. Today the Higgs Boson is known as the ‘’God Particle’’ or the ‘’Particle that makes up the universe’’ because of of what it does to other particles and the universe.
The Higgs Boson gives particles their mass after they have entered the Higgs Field. The Higgs Boson does not spin like every other particle because it doesn’t ...

...rom the Higgs field. We can also thank them for the help with the equations, the motivation to build the LHC and to help discover what we call the Higgs Boson. Now because of Peter Higgs and Francois Englert the world and many scientist can now understand where particles get their mass, why electrons don’t just move rapidly across the universe, and why we as humans can understand the real reason on how particles receive their mass. A huge thank you is give to the team that helped find the Higgs Boson and another enormous thank you to Dr. Peter Higgs and his assistant Francois Englert for thinking of a theory that no one would have believed if someone else thought of it. So because of the team in Switzerland and these two fantastic scientist we can now say the the Higgs Field and the Higgs Boson does exist and now we can understand where particles get their mass.
...nto the new world of medicine. The basic function of a cell has gained a new function which can provide a pathway of exploring ideas and concepts relating to the mutation of cells. If we are able to determine the specific time and place a cell is transported then, we can surely mutate the cell to prevent the spread of terminal diseases. The Nobel Prize winners truly deserve this prestigious award. After decades of intensive, tedious and tiresome studying they were able to uncover a mystery of the human body which now opens many doors to new studies that would be beneficial to society.
For centuries, physicists and philosophers alike have wondered what makes up our universe. Aristotle thought that all matter came in one of four forms: Earth, Air, Fire, and Water. Since then we have come a long way, with the discovery of the atoms and the subatomic particles they are made of. We can even guess at what makes up protons and neutrons. We have since then discovered and predicted the existence of particles other than the atom, such as the photon, neutrino, axion, and many others.
One possesses the key to unlock the undiscovered mysteries of life. Leading to future advancements, the discoveries made will trigger society to benefit appreciably. For instance, Marie Curie, an influential scientist, greatly benefitted society in a variety of ways. Her unforgettable and inspiring accomplishments, such as her work on radioactivity and discovery of polonium and radium, triggered a new field of physics. Furthermore, she ignited attention towards the interior of the atom and led to her contribution during WWI.
Most people see particles as protons, neutrons, and electrons “matter” particles, and their antiparticles are then “antimatter.” The term matter is then extended to include all quarks, all negatively charged leptons, and left handed neutrinos. Anti-matter is any particle built from Antiquarks, positively charged leptons, and right handed neutrinos. A particle made from quarks like baryon is called matter. Just as a particle made from antiquarks such as the antibaryon is called anti matter. For bosons there is no way to distinct matter and antimatter.
Galileo finally made the discovery that changed the world. He was able to prove the copernican theory by taking a chance and pointing the
A hundred years ago, a young married couple sat at a kitchen table talking over the items of the day while their young boy sat listening earnestly. He had heard the debate every night, and while there were no raised voices, their discussion was intense. It was a subject about which his parents were most passionate - the electrodynamics of moving bodies in the universe. The couple were of equal intelligence and fortitude, working together on a theory that few people can comprehend even to this day. Mileva Maric Einstein was considered to be the intellectual equal of her husband Albert, but somehow went unrecognized for her contributions to the 1905 Papers, which included the Special Theory of Relativity. The stronger force of these two bodies would be propelled into the archives of scientific history, while the other would be left to die alone, virtually unknown. Mrs. Einstein was robbed. She deserved to be recognized for at least a collaborative effort, but it was not to be. The role which society had accorded her and plain, bad luck would prove to be responsible for the life of this great mathematician and scientist, gone unnoticed.
Also, some scientists have questioned whether the CERN project has had something to do with this. The CERN project’s aim is to examine the fundamental structure of the universe, and is home to the Large Hadron Collider which is a particle accelerator where two high-energy particle beams travel at close to the speed of light before they are made to collide. Some worry that such quantum science tests can affect the fabric of our reality. The
Informative Speech Scientists Einstein and Heisenberg A. Introduction My Speech is about the scientists who had the main influence on our current time and have shaped our contemporary view of the world (Also called in Theology the "Zeitgeist"). I have chosen two of them who are in many ways just opposites. One is extremely famous and the other is almost unknown, except to specialists. The most famous is, of course, Albert Einstein.
Heike Kamerlingh Onnes was studying superconductivity. Onnes was researching the properties of matter, but not in the normal state. He had the temperatures extremely low and he observed the properties of matter. At the end of his investigation, his result were remarkable he created liquid helium… he then received a nobel for his great discovery.
The largest and most powerful particle collider in the world, based in CERN on the border of France and Switzerland, it is a huge undertaking. It is built to assists the scientists in discovering what the Earth is made of; it also plays a crucial part in resolving many theories by scientists. It is a 27 kilometer ring with super magnets that help the particles speed along the way. Some people also argue that it’s a machine that could possibly be dangerous, because it has the capability of creating small BLACK HOLES! “One way or another, it's the world's largest machine and it will examine the universe's tiniest particles. It's the Large Hadron Collider (LHC).”
For all of these reasons elementary particles are significant. They provide us a clear understanding on atoms, and how fermions relate to elements. They include the force carriers, and the forces they carry. And lastly, they always give us new questions and answers. Without elementary particles our understanding of the universe would be incomplete. They do so much while being so awfully small, and this is why they are so important. Instead of looking at vast galaxies and huge stars for an explanation of the universe, why not look at the most simplest, smallest things? That’s why understanding the nature of elementary particles leads us even closer to understanding the entire universe. It provides us answers to questions like: what’s it made of, how it was made, and what laws does it obey. And this is why they are “fundamentally” important.
Superstring theory is an attempt by humans to model the four fundamental forces of physics as vibrations of tiny supersymmetric strings. Superstring theory seems the most likely to lead to theories of quantum gravity, an attempt to explain gravity’s relatively weak force when compared to the other forces of physics (“Quantum gravity”, nd). Superstring theory is also "supersymmetric string theory." It is referred to as this because unlike bosonic string theory, the original form of string theory (Bosonic string theory, nd), it is the version of the theory that incorporates fermions, particles that form totally antisymmetric composite quantum states (Fermions, nd), and supersymmetry, which link bosons and fermions (“Supersymmetry”, nd; “Superstring theory”, nd)

This is probably the greatest discovery imaginable; however, the universe still seems to be a very controversial subject.
