What Are the Connections Between the Higgs Field and Spaghettification?

AI Thread Summary
For a senior project focused on the Higgs Boson, related topics for a second paper include exploring the distinction between the Higgs boson and the Higgs field, which often confuses those unfamiliar with the concepts. Another suggestion is to examine the relationship between the Higgs field and gravity, particularly discussing tidal gravity and its effects, such as spaghettification near the event horizon of small black holes or the singularity of larger black holes. These topics provide a deeper understanding of fundamental physics concepts while remaining distinct from the primary focus on the Higgs Boson.

For my senior project I am writing a paper on the Higgs Boson. Whatever project we decide to do we have to have an accompanying research paper. I am unable to write about anything that I mention in my paper (everything involving the Higgs). What are some related topics that I could do my second paper on.

Well, if you haven't already covered it, how about an explanation of the difference between the Higgs boson and the Higgs field? That is something that is subject to a lot of confusion among laymen.

If that doesn't work then how about, since the HIggs field endows particles with mass, a discourse on gravity with emphasis on tidal gravity and how it causes spahettification near the Event Horizon of small black holes (or near the singularity of large black holes) ?

Thread 'Self Learning Math/Physics'

Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...

Thread 'What should I do if I found a paper with same result as mine?'

Yesterday, 9/5/2025, when I was surfing, I found an article The Schwarzschild solution contains three problems, which can be easily solved - Journal of King Saud University - Science ABUNDANCE ESTIMATION IN AN ARID ENVIRONMENT https://jksus.org/the-schwarzschild-solution-contains-three-problems-which-can-be-easily-solved/ that has the derivation of a line element as a corrected version of the Schwarzschild solution to Einstein’s field equation. This article's date received is 2022-11-15...
