Abstract
- The article describes the research leading to the discovery of evidence of the Higgs boson particle, focusing on the A Toroidal LHC Apparatus (ATLAS) and Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Researchers looked for a heavy boson with a mass consistent with the standard model of particle physics. Topics include the design and construction of the LHC particle accelerator, experimental designs for the ATLAS and CMS Collaborations, and potential research into the existence of a scalar field and its role in dark energy and supersymmetry.
