I can understand using calculations to determine if a particular quark configuration will work and not decay instantly, but how do calculations determine which particles or fields will have a specific influence over space-time if they weren't able to control the particle or field at will?
How can physicists say that the Higgs Field is responsible for imparting mass if they are not able to control and measure the field directly?
What, in the scientific community, actually determined that the Higgs Field imparts mass and not some other unknown field that maybe pops into existence for a short time?
