Higgs boson, artwork
Higgs boson. Artwork representing the elementary particle known as the Higgs boson (centre). The existence of this hypothetical particle is predicted by the Standard Model of particle physics. It is a product of the Higgs field that is used to explain why particles have mass. A series of experiments to detect this particle were carried out in 2010 and 2011 at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) particle accelerator at the European particle physics laboratory (CERN). Analysis of the data has narrowed the range of possible properties of this particle, but definitive results are not expected until the end of 2012

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Higgs Boson" beautifully represents the elusive elementary particle that has fascinated scientists for decades. At the center of this mysterious and abstract illustration lies the Higgs boson, a hypothetical particle predicted by the Standard Model of particle physics. The Higgs boson is born out of the enigmatic Higgs field, which plays a crucial role in explaining why particles possess mass. In 2010 and 2011, a series of groundbreaking experiments took place at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) to detect this elusive particle. Although analysis of the data has provided valuable insights into its properties, definitive results were not expected until late 2012. This monochrome artwork highlights the fundamental nature of this concept in particle physics. Its conceptual representation invites viewers to delve into the depths of scientific exploration and ponder upon our understanding of matter itself. Often referred to as the "God Particle" due to its significance in shaping our universe, studying and unraveling the mysteries surrounding the Higgs boson holds immense importance for physicists worldwide. This print serves as a reminder that even within complex scientific concepts lie artistic beauty waiting to be discovered. Science Photo Library presents this thought-provoking piece that merges artistry with science seamlessly—a testament to humanity's unending curiosity about our physical world and its underlying principles.
