On April 10, according to media reports, we learned that Mr. Peter Higgs, a Nobel laureate in physics and a famous British physicist, passed away on April 8 at the age of 94.
Professor Peter Higgs is one of the pioneers of quantum physics, and his name is closely related to the "Higgs boson", which is widely known as the "God particle". The term does not refer to a specific particle, but to a general range of particles, the most well-known of which is the "Higgs boson".
The successful discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012 marked a breakthrough in the field of particle physics that marked an epochal change.
It plays a crucial role in constituting the Standard Model of particle physics, providing key theoretical support for explaining the mass sources of other elementary particles.
In particular, the discovery of the Higgs boson directly contributed to the 2013 Nobel Prize in Physics for two scientists, Peter Higgs and François Engler, for their pioneering contributions to the theoretical prediction of this particle.
As an elementary particle, the Higgs boson has its own unique quantum properties. It is the only scalar boson foreseen in the Standard Model and has specific quantum parameters, such as zero spin and cosmic symmetry, which give it a special place among the fundamental particles of nature.
