Higgs Boson

The Higgs boson (also known as the God particle) is a hypothetical, massive subatomic particle with zero electric charge whose existence would explain the masses of the elementary particles.

Many scientist hope that the Large Hadron Collider will detect the elusive Higgs boson when it begins colliding particles at 99,99% of the speed of light.

Particle Zoo is now selling this woolly Higgs boson with gravel fill for maximum mass.
