As introductory text to particle physics for the standard model, there are a couple of well-known ones. Without the Higgs, the This can only be resolved by either exotic mechanisms or the introduction of new elementary particles. First, there are the The concept of the Higgs was introduced in 1964, so it has taken physicists 48 years to go from idea to observation. The world's most sought-after particle is the missing piece of the Standard Model, the best theory available for how the universe works in all its aspects bar gravity (which is the province of Albert Einstein's general relativity). The Higgs boson theory is a theory based on the Standard Model of Particle Physics – a model of the fundamental particles which make up the universe and a model capable of explaining all physics as we know it today! The Standard Model has been fantastically successful, in that it is capable of predicting how particles will behave to very high accuracy. The model divides elementary particles into two classes. None of the model's 16 other particles was as elusive. 'Lee's lectures set a towering standard of excellencethis volume will serve superbly as a comprehensive course in elementary particle physicspages are filled. Particle Physics and Introduction to Field Theory. But the label “God Particle,” attached to the poor unsuspecting Higgs boson by Leon Lederman and Dick Teresi, continues to wreak havoc on physicists' attempts to clearly explain what is going on.

This particle was one of the last to be found as predicted by the Standard Model of particle physics.
