The Higgs Boson
|
Symbol: H0 Group: boson, gauge boson Rest mass: 135 u Charge: 0 Mean lifetime: ? Spin: 0 |
The Higgs boson is a very short-lived particle, which implies the existence of the Higgs field. The Higgs field gives mass to the W bosons and the Z boson as well as to leptons und quarks. |
