Physicists last Thursday (March 14th) announced the discovery of the so-called "God particle", namely the solid evidence for the existence of the Higgs boson. Scientists have been searching for the mysterious particle tracks for a long time, and if the particles are finally confirmed, then it will have a significant impact.

The standard model is the basic theory of particle physics, however, in which all the predicted particles have been successfully find the Higgs boson, but always without hearing a word about. Using the Large Hadron Collider, French and the Swiss Frontier (LHC) equipment, scientists make proton in a circular orbit within 27 kilometers at the speed of light to carry out experimental collision. Physicists say that, once confirmed that the Higgs boson will produce at least the following six major impact:

1 the quality of the origin of the

The mass of an object is how come? This problem has plagued the physics community, and the Higgs boson is considered and the universe of all objects to the origins of the quality. The Higgs boson is linked to a kind of field, it is called the Higgs field, the theory is that this field is filled with the whole universe. When the other particles in the universe run in the field when she won the quality attributes. This is a bit like you are swimming in a swimming pool, then the body will be wet, here, getting wet like object access to quality.

The United States Harvard University physicist Gep Cuesta (Joao Guimaraes Da Costa) said: "the mechanism of Higgs particles so that we can understand the particle get ways and means of quality." Costa Rica is last year, CERN announced suspected Higgs particle discovered, the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) standard model of ATLAS detector equipment convener. He said: "if there is no such mechanism, then everything all will lose quality."

Confirming this discovered particle is the Higgs particle will prove that we envision particles acquire quality attribute is the right way. The United States California Institute of Technology physics professor Maria Spiropourou (Maria Spiropulu) said: "the findings support our view for quality derived from quantum level, and this is our objective of building the Large Hadron collider. This is an incomparable achievements."

Then, it will provide further clues to the solution, a deeper problem is that: why these particles have numeric this quality? This value is how to determine? This, Harvard University physicist Lisa Randall (Lisa Randall) said: "this is a much bigger problem. To verify that this is indeed the first step Higgs particle but the entire process, then we can go forward, they contact mutually."

2 to improve the standard model

The standard model is the foundation of modern particle physics, which describes the particle all in the entire universe. All the standard model particles predicted by previously have been found, except for the Higgs particle. In the preliminary results announced last year, CERN laboratory equipment scientist ATLAS Jonas Strandberg (Jonas Strandberg) said: "this is a missing link in the standard model, so if the findings are confirmed, then it will ultimately prove to our current understanding is correct."

So far, prophetic nature coincides with the suspected Higgs particle scientists found appears and the standard model. But even so, the standard model itself is not complete: for example, it does not include gravity, nor will be considered to occupy the entire universe about 98% of total amount of dark matter component into account.

The United States Center Fermi National Laboratory CMS physicist Patti Mcbride (Patty McBride) said last Thursday: "even if the evidence clearly proves that the particles do we found is the standard model predicted the Higgs boson, even so our knowledge of the universe is still unclear." He said: "we still don't understand why gravity is so weak, we have to face huge dark matter exists. However, it has been 48 years of history of the classic theory, the first step of perfect is a happy thing."

3 the electroweak interaction

Confirm Higgs particles will also have an important impact on construction of the electroweak interaction. This role is to describe the role of unified electromagnetic and weak interactions, both of which is one of the basic force of nature. Describe the role of electromagnetic interaction between charged particles, and the weak interaction to describe the process of radioactive decay.

All the forces of nature are associated with particles. For example, associated with the electromagnetic force is the photon particles, which is a mass of special particle zero. While the weak interaction is relevant and called W and Z bosons, these two kinds of particles have very high quality value. All of these particle mass sources, is thought to be caused by the Higgs boson effect.

CERN's Selland Berg said: "if the concept of the Higgs field, then the W and Z bosons and the field will be mixed together, in this process they will get quality." He said: "this explains why W and Z bosons have quality, and two kinds of basic force of the electromagnetic interaction and the weak interaction together, constitute the electroweak interaction."

4 supersymmetric theory
Supersymmetric theory will also be affected by the Higgs particle discovered. This theory considers that any one of the known particles have a "super partner" particle, particle properties of the partners have slight difference. Supersymmetric theories have great appeal, because it can be the other fundamental forces united in nature, even hope to uncover the mystery of dark matter. However, so far the theory of bleak, the scientists found only particle Higgs prophecy and the standard model of particle properties very similar, but could not find any clues and supersymmetric particles.
5 the Large Hadron Collider
The Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is the world's largest particle accelerator. Belongs to the European nucleon research center that cost about $10000000000 device (CERN), its purpose is to create a particle accelerator facility on the earth level the most powerful. The finding the Higgs boson is listed as one of the priorities of the equipment. The results of this latest announcement offered powerful testimony to LHC's earlier results, but also have been here to reach this goal and hard work of physicists have better prove fruitful results.
Spiro Proulx said in a statement last year: "the findings support our view for quality derived from quantum level, and this is our objective of building the Large Hadron collider. This is an incomparable achievements." He said: "scientists have been waiting for a whole generation, is for this moment. From all over the world university and research institutions in the particle physicists, engineers and technicians have been devoted to dozens of years of hard work to make it today. Now is the time to let us temporarily stopped, turned to look at the significance of the discovery, data collection and analysis and then continue mass."
The Higgs boson was first proposed in 1964 by the British physicist Peter Higgs and his colleagues. And the latter part of the name is to commemorate the great late India physicist and mathematician, Bose, he and Einstein together define the boson. Boson is a kind of fundamental particles, including the gluon and graviton. The charge transfer interaction between fermions, such as quarks, electrons and neutrinos. Fermions are another type of elementary particles in the universe.

6 the fate of the universe
Confirmation of the Higgs boson will open a door for scientists, allowing them to perform some calculations had not carried out. The results of calculation about the fate of the universe. There is a view that the universe will be destroyed in the future for billions of years.
In this calculation, the mass of the Higgs boson itself is a very important parameter, it predicts the future destiny of the space-time. The current display measurements, the mass of the Higgs boson is about 126 times of protons, the quality value is almost at a critical point, it will be possible in the future and let the universe to billions of years of destruction.
Joseph Lincoln (Joseph Lykken) is the United States at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory physicist, he said: "the results tell us, billions of years after the universe will likely face a disaster." He said: "this may mean that we are living in this universe which is intrinsically unstable, billions of years after all this will be."
