Greetings from chilly Toronto, where I’m briefly in town to participate ina public event about the Higgs boson tonight. Should be a good time, especially because it’s not just me giving a talk; I will spend 20 minutes explaining the theoretical motivation behind the Higgs, after which expe...
The two Higgs doublet model emerges as a minimal scenario in which to address, at the same time, the γγ excess at 750 GeV and the lepton flavour violating decay into τμ of the 125 GeV Higgs boson. The price to pay is additional matter to enhance the γγ rate, and a peculiar ...

TheHiggs Bosonis anelementary particlewhich, at the time this strip was posted, had not yet been officially discovered (there had been detections at the Tevatron with 4 sigma certainty since the early 2000s). It was tentatively detected in March 2013 in theLarge Hadron Collider. The “prints...
The Higgs boson, even if it existed, would not have created mass from nothing, but rather it would have converted energy into mass. Einstein showed that all matter is some form of energy. Even time had a beginning! Time is not eternal. ...
What is a Higgs boson?: Don Lincoln, a scientist at Fermilab, explains the hottest question in subatomic science—in terms most of us can understand! What is antimatter?: Another good simple explanation from Don Lincoln. How J.J. Thomson discovered the electron: This is a great little ...
He initially said “No” – it wasn’t his research area, and he preferred to present a particular point of view, as he did in his first popular work From Eternity to Here: The Quest for the Ultimate Theory of Time.“With the Higgs boson, there is no disagreement, he says. “...
