ATLAS and CMS observed a new approximately scalar resonance in 2012 whose measured properties support identification with the Standard Model Higgs boson.

This is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.
Observed production and decay channels established a Higgs-like scalar boson.
The source theory, law, entity, prediction, or structural claim is directly tested, supported, constrained, or established by the target experiment or observation. Experimental support is not final logical proof; the edge detail states exactly what was measured.
wp-physics-higgs_bosoncern-higgs-discoverycern-higgs-overviewpdg-2026-higgsThis is an authored directed relation from the source endpoint to the target endpoint.
The boson and its measured couplings strongly support the Brout–Englert–Higgs mechanism, while ongoing measurements test its exact Standard Model form.
The source theory, law, entity, prediction, or structural claim is directly tested, supported, constrained, or established by the target experiment or observation. Experimental support is not final logical proof; the edge detail states exactly what was measured.

The discovery supplied the previously missing scalar excitation of the minimal Standard Model.
The source theory, law, entity, prediction, or structural claim is directly tested, supported, constrained, or established by the target experiment or observation. Experimental support is not final logical proof; the edge detail states exactly what was measured.
