The God Particle, referred to by scientists as the Higgs Boson, is responsible for a particle having mass.
Most particles in the universe have mass. However, if symmetry is to be preserved, all particles must be massless. This is a problematic result of the universe simply existing. In order to have symmetry preserved, there must be some field that is being interacted with.
Higgs Particles (in order for the Higgs Mechanism to work there must be more than one) essentially generate a field. Heavier particles interact more with the field and lighter particles interact less. It can be thought of as wading through a pool: you have a harder time moving if you apply more force with your legs but it is easier to move if you use less force. The Higgs Particles are expected to have a spin of 2 and to be electrically neutral. They are not expected to interact with any forces except for gravity and the Weak Force (responsible for particle decay).

Who coined the word God Particle?
The term "God Particle" was popularized by physicist Leon Lederman in his book "The God Particle: If the Universe Is the Answer, What Is the Question?" However, Lederman originally wanted to refer to the Higgs boson as the "Goddamn Particle" due to its elusive nature, but the publisher suggested "God Particle" for marketing reasons.
Why is antimatter called the God particle?
The true name of the so called (by non specialists) god particle is the Higgs boson; this particle was predicted but not discovered until now. The Higgs boson is not the equivalent of the antimatter.
When was god's particle found?
The Higgs Boson was discovered in July of 2012. The media calls it "The God Particle", but this is a misnomer; there is nothing godlike about this particle. It's the particle counterpart to the field that gives particles their mass.
What inter particle force means?
Inter particle forces are the forces which operate between particles. They may be forces of attraction, e.g. gravity, or repulsion, e.g. between two negative charges.
Why is the Higgs Boson referred to as the God Particle?
The Higgs boson is referred to as the God particle for the reason that this kind of particle is predicted in physics theory of the Standard Model. Although the particle has nothing to do with God, the belief is, that the detection of this particle would lead to many explanations about the creation of the universe and the big bang and what caused it.
Is there really god particle?
Currently, Higgs Boson is considered to be the God particle. Now, the answer will differ from person to person. According to me its there.
What scientist is considered the Father of God?
No scientist is considered the "father of God". __ I wonder if you mean the "father of the god particle". That would be particle physicist Peter Higgs
What element is God?
There is no such thing as a "god element", if you believe in God than you believe he created all things so all elements are God's. However, the media are calling the "Higgs Boson" (the new particle that they think they have found in the CERN experiment), the "god particle" because if there it would be this particle that gives matter mass.
Is it true that the speed of a particle can affect whether it can escape a liquid?
Yes, the speed of a particle can affect whether it can escape a liquid. This is because the escape of a particle from a liquid involves overcoming intermolecular forces that hold the particle in the liquid. If the particle has sufficient kinetic energy (which is related to its speed), it can break free from these forces and escape from the liquid.

Is there any matter called 'GOD'?
The hypothetical particle called the Higgs boson is also known as the "god particle", pressumably because of its important role.
What determines the nature of the path followed by the particle?
The nature of the path followed by a particle is determined primarily by the forces acting on it. Forces such as gravity, electromagnetic force, or friction influence the trajectory of the particle. Additionally, initial conditions such as velocity and position also play a role in determining the path followed by a particle.
