The two most prominent particle colliders that are looking for the Higgs boson are the Tevatron at FermiLab (although that one is going to close soon) and the LHC at CERN.
We are not sure if the theorized Higgs boson is real or not. If it is, it would be provide some support to ideas about what mass (and, therefore, gravity, which is associated mass) really is. We're still looking for experimental support that the Higgs boson is real, and now that the Large Hadron Collider is up and running, all (interested) eyes are on CERN and awaiting results.
The Higgs Boson is called the "God" particle because it would help explain on of physics biggest mysteries: how gravity works. Can both God and the Higgs Boson exist? Yes, if God exists, then he could have created the Higgs Boson, like he created other particles.
The Higgs Boson, if it exists, should be a massive point particle, so there should be nothing "in" it.
Peter Higgs is credited with first proposing the existence of the Higgs Field, an idea that resulted in a unification of the electro-magnetic force with the weak interaction. Peter did not name the field after himself, that came later.
It isn't. The Large Hadron Collider is a proton-accelerator & collider designed to investigate the most fundamental sub-atomic particles and forces, and to try to prove or disprove the existence & properties of the hypothesised Higgs Boson, though to be responsible for mass.
Higgs boson was created in 2011.

The "Higgs Field".
Many, many physicists are looking for the Higgs boson, and they're doing it mainly in two locations. The first location is at the Tevatron at Fermilab in Illinois. The second location is at the Large Hadron Collider at CERN, which is near Geneva Switzerland.
Higgs from America & Bose from India.

I think the original goal was the Higgs Boson, but as that may have been found, the scientists will go on looking for other stuff, or possibly confirmation of the the Higgs Field.

The facility that found the most unambiguous evidence for the reality of the Higgs Boson is CERN.
It is a boson, a type of particle, that is a part of the Higgs mechanism, a theory of how particles can have mass if they are just energy
Quarks are point-like particles found mainly in baryons, mesons etc. The Higgs boson is a primary particle produced when the higgs field is excited
