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.

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.


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.


What was the first thing appeared in universe?

Well the first thing in the universe... (before it was even a universe) was always there it didnt appear it was always there, one person that we know that was here first was God... but God didn't appear... he was always there. God was not created, for he is the a creator.

Does string theory support God's existence?

String theory is simply an enhancement of the traditional particle theory, that takes into account newly observed facts about subatomic particles. It neither proves nor disproves the existence of God. Nothing in science does this.


What is the god partical?

the god particle ( or Higgs Particle) was an elusive quantum physics particle that remained unfounded for a number of years until July, 2012. the God Particle reinstates many physical theories concerning mass. previous the the particle find it was unclear why some particles appeared to have little to no mass in comparison to other particles of similar qualities that had 'massive' mass. Peter Higgs first described such a particle as the Higgs Particle / God Particle about 40 years ago yet it remained unfounded. the find answers many questions and is significantly important in explaining many aspects of quantum physics


Why are longitudinal and transverse waves named the way they are?

Longitudinal waves are named as such because the oscillations of the wave particles are parallel to the direction of wave propagation. Transverse waves are named because the oscillations of the wave particles are perpendicular to the direction of wave propagation.


How much does god love you?

God loves you more than you can imagine. God loves you so much that God has given eyes to see, beautiful ears to hear, a nose to smell, a tongue to taste, hands to grasp, feet to walk, a heart that beats. God has given you 30 trillion cells that work systematically. God has made a beautiful world for you. God has made you to be happy. Unfortunately, because we don't realize God loves us, because we don't realize that God lives in the temple of our heart, that the kingdom of God is within, because we don't realize that we are made of God, that we are all God particles, we are manifestations of God, we don't realize the immense love God has for us. When we realize that we are nothing but a particle of God, then we will realize how much God loves us and we will also love God equally.


What were the forces in the god particle?

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).
