Sigma Xi Public Talk
And then there was mass, from Higgs boson to the unknown
Presented by Joe Incandela, Physics Department, University of California, Santa Barbara
In 2012, noted physicist Joe Incandela rocked the world by announcing a historic discovery: a new particle resembling the long-sought Higgs boson. This lecture will offer a unique insider view of the Large Hadron Collider, the quest for the Higgs, its profound role in defining the structure and evolution of our universe, and what recent data has shown, with implications for the future.
