What is the Higgs boson?What is the Higgs boson? The equations describing the forces and
matter particles work well. Unfortunately they demand that they all
weigh nothing– We know this is not true
Prof. Higgs proposed an addition which corrects this.

The Waldegrave Higgs challengeThe Waldegrave Higgs challengeIn 1993, the then UK Science Minister,
William Waldegrave, issued a challenge to physicists to answer the questions:
'What is the Higgs boson, and why do we want to find it?’
on one side of a sheet of paper.
David Miller of UCL won a bottle of champagne for the following:

What does Higgs theory imply?What does Higgs theory imply?
Higgs’ mechanism gives mass to W and Z bosons,
and to the matter particles.

We can check it
The Higgs Boson mass is not predicted
It also predicts one extra particle:
The Higgs boson

LEP created 20,000,000 Z bosons

The Search for the HiggsThe Search for the HiggsIn the late 1990’s ‘LEP’ at CERN ran
with enough energy to make W pairsThere was also hopes it might make
a Higgs.

The W pairs: The W pairs:
W’s produced by reactions like this one
Each W decays in ~10-26 seconds
Or quarks (2 sorts)
e-,

Into leptons (3 sorts)

Make a Higgs and a Z together
So need Energy greater than Higgs mass plus Z mass
Predicted LEP events, 4 experiments

What is the position?What is the position?
We look to the future to solve this question.
LEP closed in 2000
mH 53 to 141 GeV/c2
mH = 115.6 GeV/c2- 0.8+ 0.8
•Precision studies of Z,W and top DEMAND a Higgs:•MW agrees with Higgs’ predictions to 1 per mille,
• Direct Searches (4 in 100 effect)
Is this a coincidence?

far more data than before
•Can probably find a 115GeV

Some Unanswered QuestionsSome Unanswered Questions Does the Higgs exist? If not, how do you
explain mass? Where is all the anti-matter?
– See Stefania’s talk
What about Gravity– Why do we get the cosmological constant
wrong by 10120?
Why are there 3 generations of particles? And 3 colours?
