Discovered at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in 2012, the elusive Higgs boson particle has been at the centre stage for exploring new possibilities in particle physics. Scientists are trying to combine more precise measurements of the properties of Higgs boson with further searches for ‘new physics’.
Physicists from the ATLAS experiment focused on events leading to the creation of two Higgs bosons, which would then decay into multiple particles of the lepton family.Secondary particle tracks recorded during a proton collision inside the ATLAS detector, indicating the presence of a single Higgs boson in the event.
There are, however, theoretical models describing phenomena beyond the Standard Model, predicting the production of Higgs boson pairs with a higher probability, according to scientists.have combined both goals: with the latest analysis it has been possible to expand the knowledge of the interactions of Higgs bosons with each other, and stronger constraints on the phenomena of ‘new physics’ have been found.
They also claimed that every particle is a wave in a field. The most familiar example of this is light: light is simultaneously a wave in the electromagnetic field and a stream of particles called photons. Operating solely within the framework of the Standard Model, the physicists in the ATLAS experiment therefore simulated the signals that should appear in the detectors in the event of two Higgs boson phenomena, and then normalised the results according to the expected amount of data coming from their detector, according to the press release.
