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.

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.
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.
Who discovered higgs boson particle?
The Higgs boson has not yet been discovered. It has been predicted by numerous physicists (the best known is probably Peter Higgs, since the particle was named after him, but more people worked on it) and many think that it is required to explain certain features of the Standard Model, which is the model which describes particle interactions at a small scale. Recently FermiLab has published results which show they may have found the Higgs boson in their collider experiments, but the uncertainties are still too great to be able to claim with confidence that the particle has been found. If it exists, it will be found by the LHC-experiment at CERN.
Why are protons being collided in the Large Hadron Collider?
The LHC is the Large Hadron Collider, and it's set up to use large hadrons as "bullets" in experiments. The proton is a "quick and easy" bullet to acquire. It's a hydrogen nucleus, and it's not that hard to come by. Take hydrogen gas and stip off the electron and we're in business. And a proton is a better "bullet" than an electron because it's heavier than the electron by some 1836 times. Bigger "bullets" make for a better "hit" on a target. We've already been accelerating protons for a long time so we know something about that. And now we have a bigger machine to do it with. Actually, the machine will be used on some other atomic nuclei as well, like lead. The trick is to strip off the electrons and then send the remaining nucleus sans electrons into a linear accelerator (along with more of its kind) and then into the different rings that will boost energies to the point where they can be injected into the LHC ring proper for their final "boost" to almost the speed of light.

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.
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 is higgs BOSON particles and why is it called GOD particle?
The Higgs is a hypothetical particle required by supersymmetry theory. It is believed to cause the masses of all particles.
What theoretical subatomic particle is called the the god particle?
This is the Higgs boson; now (July 2014) this discovery is confirmed.
Why Higgs-Boson is called God's Particle?
because it explains the origin of Universe and what it really made of.
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 subatomic particle causes mass?
*IF* the Higgs Field gives an explanation for why some particles have mass and others don't, and *IF* the Higgs Boson is a part of this field; then the discovery of the Higgs Boson would be a major breakthrough in supporting the Higgs Field, and thus the continued use of "The Standard Model." If it is NOT found, then scientists are almsot back to the drawing board. Because of these facts, the Higgs Boson is called, completely erroneously, the particle that creates mass or (worse) the "God Particle." Even the person who first used that term to describe the Higgs Boson hates the use of it. As of this week, scientists at CERN predict that the existence of the Higgs Boson will be known within a year.
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 are god particles?
The Higgs boson is often referred to as the "God particle" by people outside of the scientific community.Why this is so, is probably a religious way of trying to keep "God" alive, whilst scientists are finally determining how the Universe works.
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.
Is God Particle the same as Dark Matter?
The Higgs Boson (nicknamed the "God Particle", in one of history's WORST choices for a popular name) is a particle predicted by the existence of the Higgs Field, a hypothesis created to explain why some particles have mass and some don't. If it turned out that the Higgs Boson did NOT exist, then a lot of science over the last forty years would have to be thrown out. However, that boson was found, fairly close to the mass predicted -- meaning the Higgs Field can continue to be used, and the Standard Model remains the basic idea of particle physics. However, the Higgs Field, and its accompanying boson, have nothing to do with dark matter. That latter stuff (whatever it happens to turn out to be) interact with baryonic matter (ie, the stuff we understand) through gravity, and not much else. Dark matter is out there, as we can clearly see its effects -- we just don't know what it IS. But it can't be the Higgs Field, or its boson, as the field has no mass and the boson is so unstable as to disappear in less than a billionth of a trillionth of a second. Dark matter, in contrast, has been unchanged over billions of years.
