Higgs boson research, CMS detector C013 / 6887

Higgs boson research. Graphic of a longitudinal section through a detector showing a collision event recorded during the search for the Higgs boson. This event (a proton-proton collision) was recorded with the CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid) detector in 2012. It shows characteristics expected of the decay of the Standard Models Higgs boson to a pair of photons (dashed yellow lines and green towers). In the Standard Model, the Higgs boson is used to explain why particles have mass. CERN (the European particle physics laboratory) announced the Higgs boson discovery on 4 July 2012

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a momentous event in the world of particle physics - the search for the elusive Higgs boson. Taken in 2012 at CERN, the European particle physics laboratory, this graphic illustration showcases a longitudinal section through a detector during a proton-proton collision recorded by the CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid) detector. The image reveals distinct characteristics expected from the decay of the Standard Model's Higgs boson into a pair of photons. Dashed yellow lines and green towers trace these gamma rays, providing valuable insight into how particles acquire mass. CERN's announcement on July 4th, 2012, marked an extraordinary milestone - confirming the existence of this fundamental particle known as "the God particle". The discovery revolutionized our understanding of subatomic structures and shed light on one of nature's greatest mysteries. In this visually striking display, we witness cutting-edge research and experimental data that unraveled secrets about the structure of matter. The Large Hadron Collider (LHC), depicted here colliding particles at incredible speeds, played a crucial role in capturing such significant collisions. As we delve into this mesmerizing snapshot taken by Thomas McCauley and Lucas Taylor from Science Photo Library, we are reminded of humanity's relentless pursuit to unravel nature's deepest secrets. This image serves as both an emblematic representation of scientific progress and an awe-inspiring testament to human curiosity and ingenuity.
