In praise of Peter Higgs : The particle named after him became a selling point. For the man, it was a bit of a pain
economist.com/leaders/2024/04/11/in-praise-of-peter-higgs
Quick Glance: Physicist Peter Higgs Passes Away at 94
- Physicist Peter Higgs, whose theory of an undetected particle in the universe changed science, has died at 94, according to the University of Edinburgh.
- The discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012 at the CERN research center was a significant advancement in understanding the cosmos, steering physics towards once-fantastical ideas.
- Higgs, initially 'incompetent' in the physics lab, later specialized in theoretical physics, inspired by quantum physicist Paul Dirac from his school.
- The Higgs boson's completion of the Standard Model opened doors to explore unexplained aspects of the universe and abstract concepts like parallel universes, despite Higgs disliking the 'God particle' nickname.
