The "God Particle" Explained

The "God Particle” is a sexy name, but many physicists absolutely hate it. It’s also led people to think that maybe the discovery of the Higgs boson has something to do with the search for God, but it doesn’t. In this series, we’re going to talk about how scientists even knew to look for the Higgs Boson, how they found it, and what it means for the future of particle physics.
