While many Americans will celebrate the July 4 holiday as the birthday of the United States, physicists and science enthusiasts will also celebrate the 10th anniversary of the discovery of the Higgs Boson, more commonly known as the “God’s Particle.” The particle’s existence was first predicted by Peter Higgs in the 1960s and he theorized that we are surrounded by an ocean of quantum information known as the Higgs Field. However, his Nobel Prize-winning discovery makes everything else in our universe possible.
