A refined hunt for the extremely rare transformation of the Higgs boson has delivered results, providing the first evidence of a process that could hint at unknown particles.
For the most part, knowing that the Higgs particle and its associated field exist means we now understand why fundamental particles have mass.
On a smaller scale, the effort it takes for more fundamental objects like electrons or quarks to wade through theYet the gregarious nature of the field and the effervescent froth of itsto look for signs of hypothetical quantum fields and related particles that wouldn't normally make themselves known through more obvious means.
Fortunately, by keeping count of all of those 'feathers' in the dust-up of a collider, physicists can build a picture ofSome of these decays are relatively common, but for the Higgs particle, transformations into a photon and the short-range weak nuclear force-carrying Z boson is a roughly one-in-a-thousand event. Or, as predicted in the textbooks, around 0.15 percent of all the Higgs' decays.
