Question: "What is the God particle?" Answer: The "God particle" is the nickname of a subatomic particle called the Higgs boson. In layman’s terms‚ different subatomic particles are responsible for giving matter different properties. One of the most mysterious and important properties is mass. Some particles‚ like protons and neutrons‚ have mass. Others‚ like photons‚ do not. The Higgs boson‚ or “God particle‚” is believed to be the particle which gives mass to matter. The “God particle” nickname grew

The Higgs was believed to be responsible for all physical reality‚ and finding it was important‚ because it would allow scientists to understand the basic nature of the universe. The Standard Model is a scientific theory that describes the different forces of the universe and how particles interact with one another. This is the theory that predicted the Higgs Boson. According to this theory‚ the Higgs is a particle which is able to give another one its mass. The Higgs Boson is associated

they found the ’god particle’ a particle associated with how all other particles get their masses. With this information they attracted attention. This discovery was not a coincidence‚ in fact it was a part of the next stage of physics research. Higgs Boson provides to give us a picture of basic rules governing the way the universe was‚is‚and will be. Since the decades‚ we are explaining problems with laws.For instance Newton discovered his laws of gravitation with the aid of calculus‚which he essentialt

the appearance of the condensate. Right: after further evaporation‚ leaving a sample of nearly pure condensate. A Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC) is a state of matter of a dilute gas of bosons cooled to temperatures very near absolute zero (0 K or −273.15 °C[1]). Under such conditions‚ a large fraction of the bosons occupy the lowest quantum state‚ at which point quantum effects become apparent on a macroscopic scale. These effects are called macroscopic quantum phenomena. This state of matter was

Bose-Einstein Condensate Story Introduction/Scene 1-- It has been 85 years since Albert Einstein and Satyendra Nath Bose first discovered the theory of Bose-Einstein Condensate. It is 2001 now and I and my colleagues‚ Wolfgang Ketterle and Carl Wieman have received the Noble Prize for our experiments that brought about this new phase of matter. Our hard work and dedication will now allow the world an endless amount of advancements in technology on so many levels. Before we get into all that though

States of matter Four fundamental states: Solid - In a solid the particles (ions‚ atoms or molecules) are packed closely together. As a result‚ a solid has a stable‚ definite shape‚ and a definite volume. Solids can only change their shape by force‚ as when broken or cut. Liquid - A liquid is a nearly incompressible fluid that conforms to the shape of its container but retains a (nearly) constant volume independent of pressure. The volume is definite if the temperature and pressure are constant
