The Standard Model of particle
The Standard Model of particle physics was devised in the 1960s and 1970s and tested extensively over the decades. However, there was one question that was unanswered and that is the origin of the mass of subatomic particles. A theory proposed in 1964 by Peter Higgs and others attempted to answer that question. The theory proposed an energy field called the Higgs field and a particle called the Higgs boson. It took nearly fifty years, but in 2012, the Higgs boson was discovered. In episode 8 of Subatomic Stories, Fermilab’s Dr. Don Lincoln sheds some light on this last discovered feature of the Standard Model.
