Exploring the Large Hadron Collider – The Discovery of the Higgs Particle
Michael Hauschild takes the reader of this essential back to the year 2012, when the discovery of the Higgs particle was announced at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research near Geneva, Switzerland. The author vividly explains the Higgs mechanism for mass generation with the central role of the Higgs particle in current particle physics and the long hunt for its discovery at the Large Hadron Collider LHC. After a stop of more than two years, the LHC, the world‘s largest particle accelerator was put back into operation in spring 2015 to discover the secrets of nature at higher energy than ever before. An overview of future projects concludes this essential. The Author Dr. Michael Hauschild is a particle physicist at CERN in Geneva and has been a member of the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider LHC since 2005. During the first long measurement period of the LHC from 2010 to 2012, he witnessed the discovery of the Higgs particle in summer 2012. This Springer essential is a translation of the original German 1st edition essentials, Neustart des LHC: die Entdeckung des Higgs-Teilchens by Michael Hauschild, published by Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden GmbH, part of Springer Nature in 2018. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com). A subsequent human revision was done primarily in terms of content, so that the book will read stylistically different from a conventional translation. Springer Nature works continuously to further the development of tools for the production of books and on the related technologies to support the authors.
God Particle
A Nobel Prize–winning physicist’s “funny, clever, entertaining” account of the history of particle physics and the hunt for a Higgs boson (Library Journal). In this extraordinarily accessible and witty book, Leon Lederman—“the most engaging physicist since the late, much-missed Richard Feynman” (San Francisco Examiner)—offers a fascinating tour that takes us from the Greeks’ earliest scientific observations through Einstein and beyond in an inspiring celebration of human curiosity. It ends with the quest for the Higgs boson, nicknamed the God Particle, which scientists hypothesize will help unlock the last secrets of the subatomic universe. This is not only an enlightening journey through baryons and hadrons and leptons and electrons—it also “may be the funniest book about physics ever written” (The Dallas Morning News). “One of the clearest, most enjoyable new science books in years . . . explains the entire history of physics and cosmology. En route, you’ll laugh so hard you won’t realize how much you are learning.” —San Francisco Examiner “The story of the search for the ultimate constituents of matter has been told many times before, but never with more verve and wit. . . . His hilarious account of how he helped persuade President Reagan to approve the construction of the Super Collider is itself worth the price of the book.” —Los Angeles Times
