Higgs Boson Continues to Not Make Sense Shortly after the existence of the Higgs boson was quasi-confirmed , I wrote a short post noting, among other things, that I don't really understand what a Higgs boson is. This upset such commenters as ... Higgs boson, and other mysteries of modern life Baffled by the Higgs boson? Can't get your head around Libor? Or Twitter hashtags? Don't know who the Kardashians are? Your bluffer's guide to the mysteries of modern life begins here... SciTechTalk: If it's the Higgs, now what? JIM ALGAR || United Press International With the July 4th announcement of the possible -- wait, make that probable -- no, actually, make that the almost certain confirmation of the existence of the Higgs boson, the so-called "God particle," physicists find themselves facing a fundamental question. Q. and A.: The Higgs Boson and You Why was the Higgs boson so expensive? Well, there's the tanning salon bill for those Ph.D.'s who spent all their time in a tunnel. Who Deserves a Higgs Boson Nobel? One Scientist, or Many There's the science, and then there's the glitter. As researchers celebrate the best-yet evidence of the existence of the Higgs boson, some are already thinking about who's going to get the Nobel Prize in physics for the seminal discovery. Higgs boson: So who is getting the Nobel? The discovery of a particle thought to be the elusive Higgs boson has prompted a new investigation: Whose names will be engraved on the Nobel Prize in Physics medal? Higgs boson: It appears to be there, but what is it? (+video) Even if the newly discovered 'God particle' is not the Higgs boson as it was originally conceived, the implications of the new finding for science are still significant. The discovery is likely to provide the whole field of particle physics with a burst of momentum.  Could the Higgs boson teach us anything about dark matter? (+video) If the existence of the Higgs boson is confirmed, it would complete the Standard Model of particle physics. But does that bring us any closer to understanding a mysterious substance thought to account for more than four fifths of the total mass of the universe? Could the Higgs boson teach us anything about dark matter? If the existence of the Higgs boson is confirmed, it would complete the Standard Model of particle physics. But does that bring us any closer to understanding a mysterious substance thought to account for more than four fifths of the total mass of the universe? Still Confused About the Higgs Boson? Read This. A chance encounter at a July 4 picnic made the latest development in particle physics seem much more comprehensible. Here's what I learned. Yes, I am aware this is image looks technical and confusing. ...
