Nationalgeographic.co.id—Physicist from collaboration ATLAS and CMS by Large Hadron Collider CERN (European Nuclear Research Organization) released the results of the most comprehensive study on the properties’God ParticleHiggs boson. The collaboration has used the largest sample of proton-proton collision data experimentally recorded so far to study the unique particle with unprecedented detail.

The new release marks the 10th anniversary of the discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012. The report has been published in 2 publications in prestigious journals. Nature dengan judul “Happy birthday, Higgs boson! What we do and don’t know about the particle” dan “A portrait of the Higgs boson by the CMS experiment ten years after the discovery” baru-baru ini.

As is known, on July 4, 2012, physicists from the collaboration of ATLAS and CMS at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider announced the observation of the Higgs boson with a mass of about 125 gigaelectronvolts. Ten years later, and with data matching the production of the Higgs boson in 30 times greater quantities, ATLAS and CMS researchers have learned more about the properties of elementary particles.

The publication shows that the properties of the particles are very consistent with the properties of the Higgs boson predicted by the Standard Model of particle physics.

They also show that particles are increasingly becoming a powerful means of searching for new, unknown phenomena that, if discovered, could help explain some of the greatest mysteries of physics, such as the mysterious nature of dark matter in the Universe.

The Standard Model of particle physics describes the known fundamental particles and forces that make up our Universe, with the exception of gravity.

One of the main features of the Standard Model is a plane that permeates all of space and interacts with fundamental particles.

The quantum excitation of this field, known as the Higgs fieldmanifests itself as the Higgs boson, the only fundamental particle without spin.

In 2012, a particle with properties consistent with the Higgs boson was observed by the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Since then, more than 30 times as many Higgs bosons have been recorded by experimentation, allowing for much more precise measurements and testing of new theories.
