Higgs boson event C014 / 1812
Particle tracks from a proton-proton collision seen by the CMS (compact muon solenoid) detector at CERN (the European particle physics laboratory) near Geneva, Switzerland. Before the collision the ions had been accelerated by the large hadron collider (LHC). A large number of particles (orange lines) were created by the collision. The energies of these particles are measured by the hadron calorimeter (blue rectangles). Among the particles produced was a Higgs boson. The particle was not seen, but is revealed through its decay products; a pair of Z bosons that each decay into a pair of muons (long red lines), which were detected by muon chambers (red rectangles). 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 print captures the mesmerizing Higgs boson event C014/1812, a momentous discovery in the field of particle physics. Taken by the CMS (compact muon solenoid) detector at CERN, Europe's renowned particle physics laboratory near Geneva, Switzerland, this image showcases the aftermath of a proton-proton collision within the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The collision generated an array of subatomic particles depicted as vibrant orange lines that traverse through space. The energies of these particles are meticulously measured by blue rectangles known as the hadron calorimeter. Amongst this intricate cosmic dance lies one elusive entity - the Higgs boson. Although invisible to our eyes, its existence is unveiled through its decay products: a pair of Z bosons that each disintegrate into two long red lines representing muons. These muons were detected by red rectangles called muon chambers. The Higgs boson holds immense significance in our understanding of fundamental particles and their mass-giving properties. Its first sighting was announced on July 4th, 2012, marking a groundbreaking achievement for scientists at CERN. This awe-inspiring photograph not only highlights cutting-edge research and experimentation but also symbolizes humanity's relentless pursuit to unravel the mysteries surrounding matter and cosmology. It serves as a testament to mankind's insatiable curiosity about the structure of our universe and pushes us further towards unlocking its secrets.
