Forgive my lack of particle physics undestanding, I'm still trying to teach myself!
I've been looking into gauge bosons and I'm trying to distinguish between the Higgs and the graviton.
From what I know, the Higgs is the particle postulated by the standard model to give all others mass, while the graviton is postulated by some theories of quantum gravity to be the "force carrier" for gravity. Does this make them both the same thing?
