Higgs boosom, it's a very busty particle and full of fun.

Excellent. The fact of Peter Higgs being alive to see these results is incredible and motivational.

I'm visiting the CERN Open Days this weekend so I'm watching a bunch of vids about the LHC and Higgs to prepare, and this is the most illuminating one I've seen. Thank you!

not only were these very high energy collisions, they were also high luminosity which means lots of collisions per second. That results in much more data, allowing better statistical discrimination of the signal from noise.

Just came back from there two days ago. Had a good look around LHCb.

I wonder: does the standard model address whether the Higgs field is homogeneous? If the field is of uniform density throughout, a 1kg mass would have 1kg of inertial resistance anywhere in the universe. On the other hand, if the field were "clumpy" like a fog or perhaps even clustered like galaxies, that 1kg mass could experience greater inertia where the Higgs field is more dense and less inertia where it's less dense.

It amazes me that CERN recently shut down the super collider for a several year period to re-tune it for more power. It takes SEVERAL YEARS to turn it off, re-calibrate it, and power it back up. That machine has to be added to the "wonders of the world" list. It's an engineering accomplishment that is absolutely mind boggling.

There are lots of fields, no need to single out the Higgs field - what about the electromagnetic field, the electron field, or the quark field? Reality seems to be based on the existence of quite a few fields. So if you want, you could ask why does anything exist at all? Lawrence Krauss took a stab at this in his latest book.

this was a great discussion. Splendid job!

+Aman Vernekar I'm also no expert but from what I understand, nothing really. Asking that question is analogous to asking why some particles interact with electromagnetism and some don't, or why are the fundamental forces as strong as they are and not stronger/weaker. It's just how the universe works, the intrinsic properties of the particles themselves. It's very likely that there is no true answer. If string theory, or something similar, turns out to be true then that would answer your question, but you could then you could just ask why do strings have these properties? If you ask "why" forever, eventually you'll have to end at "because that's just how the universe works".

@lucascharrer3744

Actually mass is the other way around. The property of mass is basically the property an object has so that it cannot travel at the speed of light. And remember, Mass getting heavier at closer the speed of light still interacts with the Higgs field, so long that it doesn't travel at the speed of light. So, as long as an object is moving slower than light, no matter how close, the Higgs field is going to give it mass.

I'm sure a lot of people would be personally shaken by it, but over time and with repeated empirical confirmation, it would be accepted. It seems like a lot of religious people think science is all about disproving the existence of their god, when in fact it's a search for understanding of everything.

I see the stories of God and Religion fitting that model perfectly, however the stories of the Bible and such? Historically proven to be... Well wrong. Sorry. Not trying to start a flame war, just placing my opinion here for all to see.

+DunderHumorFan Yes, if you see what i said as that interpretation. It's only a theory I have that can be accepted by both religion and science I guess.

sounds like a terrible waste of money

Sounds like a step closer to the future of science and the understanding of the universe

so all that money and energy to detect one particle... there is no 4th dimension of space

Ok mr einstein. You have the proofs and knowledge to conclude that there is no 4rth spacial dimension... Peace put

well Einstein made that space-time dimension up, you see. ever just step back and think maybe that he was wrong about that?

nikola tesla thought Einstein was wrong

I just got here but, OMG!, you have made my day. I've been laughing for 10 minutes with your comments. Thank you xD

For some reason hearing about the Higgs got me really excited

We need an update video on the LHC

its a shame something like this dos not have millions of views

Such awsome. much wow.

I hope you do a follow up video to discuss what has been accomplished since then

Amazing!

Shubham: Because they didn't have colliders that could push the photons at high enough speeds. If you smash 2 particles at a slow speed the outcome is much different than at high speeds, just like in any collision. To get the higgs to appear you have to break a photon at higher speed to get it to break into more and more tiny pieces then analyze all those pieces and measure their energy states. A lot of this is up to chance so you don't always get a Higgs, so they do this over and over again to get statistically significant results. (for some reason I couldn't reply directly to your comment.)

you can express mass in energy units and energy in math units if you want, since you only have to divide / multiply by a constant factor

Correct my friend. :) Knowing all the answers is no fun. The fun is answer some of the questions and create a load of questions again. :)

What was the music track you used at the very end of the video? - - I cannot tell you how excited I'd be if the non-standard Higgs is discovered in my lifetime. How monumental would that day be? The bit that really gets to me is the possibilities that it entails and new discoveries that would follow after that. An entirely new understanding of physics... Crazy, right? - - Gets me thinking every time.

Awesome.

This is awesome

good question :D
