- TL;DR Summary
- They say at the Big Bang all the particles does not have mass. It’s the Higgs Bosons give them mass...
Higgs bosons are very heavy particles (probably 1000 times heavier than a protons) and very unstable. Now we can create them in particle accelerators like LHC, like countless of other particles.
But wait. This one can give mass to particles without mass, does this violate the conservation of mass or energy? Or the laws of physics is different at the beginning of time? Also I heard a Boson particle is the one usually carries a force (like gravity, electromagnetic forces and nuclear force). If Higgs boson was a boson, what kind of force does it carry? And what makes it capable of bringing mass? Does this process still work in the universe now (like giving mass to photons)?
