Higgs boson, artwork C018 / 0936
Higgs boson. Computer artwork showing a Higgs boson particle, which was formed by the collision of two protons, decaying into a pair of Z bosons, one of which decays to a pair of electrons, the other to a pair of muons. The Higgs boson is thought to give other particles mass. The first sighting of it was announced by scientists at CERN on 4th July 2012

EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Higgs boson, artwork C018 / 0936" offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the intricate world of particle physics. Created through computer artwork, it showcases the elusive Higgs boson particle formed by the collision of two protons. The image beautifully captures the moment when this enigmatic particle decays into a pair of Z bosons - one transforming into a duo of electrons and the other into a pair of muons. The significance of this discovery lies in its potential to unravel one of nature's greatest mysteries: how particles acquire mass. Scientists at CERN made history on July 4th, 2012, when they first announced their sighting of the Higgs boson. This groundbreaking revelation revolutionized our understanding of subatomic particles and solidified our knowledge within the realm of theoretical physics. Within this visually stunning artwork, we witness not only an awe-inspiring collision but also gain insight into the complex structure that underpins matter itself. The Higgs boson's existence is intricately tied to concepts such as quantum physics and the standard model - fundamental pillars in our comprehension of reality at its most fundamental level. Harald Ritsch's masterful illustration serves as a testament to human curiosity and relentless scientific exploration. It invites us to contemplate both the beauty and complexity inherent in deciphering nature's deepest secrets while reminding us that there is still much more waiting to be unveiled within these subatomic realms.
