  • Summary

  • On 4 July 2012, the ATLAS and CMS experiments at CERN's Large Hadron Collider confirmed that they had each observed a new particle in the mass region around 125 GeV. This particle is consistent with the long-sought Higgs boson, also named poetically as God’s particle. And Christoph Paus, professor of MIT, led the CMS team to this groundbreaking discovery.

    Why was detecting the Higgs boson such a big deal for physicists (given Nobel Prize in Physics 2013)? How to lead one of the largest international research collaborations? What is coming next in High-Energy Physics?
