A boson responsible for carrying the weak nuclear force (responsible for beta decay). There are three different kinds W-, Z0, and W+ all rather heavy and acting only over short ranges.

What is the differences between a w boson and a virtual photon?
W-bosons are charged and the photons are uncharged, W-bosons have a non zero rest mass and photons hsve zero rest mass. Also the W-boson is the "exchange particle" in interactions involving the weak nuclear force, but photons are the exchange particle of the electromagentic force.
What could be in the higs Boson?
The Higgs Boson, if it exists, should be a massive point particle, so there should be nothing "in" it.
Can god fit in scientific story of higgs boson?
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.
Has the Higgs boson been found yet?
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.
Why was the Higgs boson named after Peter Higgs?
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.
What is a Z boson?
A Z boson is fundamental particle - a gauge boson which, together with the W boson, mediates the weak nuclear force. It has a charge of 0.
What is a Z-boson?
A Z-boson is a fundamental particle, a gauge boson, which, together with the W-boson, mediates the weak nuclear force, and has a charge of 0.
What is a bino?
A bino is a superpartner of a gauge boson corresponding to weak hypercharge.
What is a Z particle?
A Z particle is another name for the Z boson - a fundamental particle which, together with the W boson, mediates the weak nuclear force. It has a charge of 0.
How does the W boson affect beta radiation?
The W boson is the carrier of the weak force (weak interaction), and the weak force is the "boss" of beta decay. The weak interaction mediates the changes that take place in an atomic nucleus just prior to the emission of a beta particle. Let's look at that. In beta decay, one of two things happens. One is that an up quark in a proton becomes a down quark, and the proton becomes a neutron. The weak interaction mediates this, and a W+ boson appears, then becomes a positron and a neutrino. In the other case, a down quark in a neutron becomes an up quark, and the neutron becomes a proton. The weak interaction mediates this, too, and a W- boson appears, and then becomes an electron and an antineutrino. You can use the links below to learn more.
