Standard Model predicts only a single Higgs Boson. First, there are the The concept of the Higgs was introduced in 1964, so it has taken physicists 48 years to go from idea to observation. None of the model's 16 other particles was as elusive. But the label “God Particle,” attached to the poor unsuspecting Higgs boson by Leon Lederman and Dick Teresi, continues to wreak havoc on physicists' attempts to clearly explain what is going on. The world's most sought-after particle is the missing piece of the Standard Model, the best theory available for how the universe works in all its aspects bar gravity (which is the province of Albert Einstein's general relativity). Particle Physics – an Introduction. That's what physicists at LHC are mainly looking for right now. Introduction to Elementary Particles. This finding is one step to backing up the standard model of particle physics, which predicts that the Higgs boson is real. The Georgi-Machacek model avoids tree-level issues of the T parameter, while offering a vastly modified Higgs phenomenology compared to the standard model. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press. Posted on By not including gravity, the Standard Model is effectively excluded as a candidate for the much sought after “Theory of Everything”, the ultimate goal of particle physics. The model divides elementary particles into two classes. An Introduction to the Standard Model of Particle Physics, 2nd edition. SEE ALSO: CERN: We've Got the 'God Particle'. Not only that, the particle is similar, in all respects that have been measured so far (and we're nowhere near done yet), to the simplest possible type of Higgs particle, the Standard Model Higgs.
