Professor Peter Higgs.

In the 1960s, Professor Higgs and a number of other physicists proposed a hypothesis to explain why all kinds of matter in the universe have mass. According to this hypothesis, a particle has created mass for matter. Because the Higgs was the first to publish the hypothesis, the scientists called it the Higgs. In addition, people call it "the seed of God".

Thousands of scientists have been involved in the search for the Higgs during the past five decades. In July, the European Atomic Research Organization (CERN) announced that it discovered a type of particle that is very similar in character to the Higgs particle thanks to direct collisions between particles in a large border particle accelerator. Switzerland and France.

After CERN's announcement, public opinion predicted that the Higgs would become one of the future Nobel laureates. Even many people called on the British royal family to knight for an 83-year-old professor.
