The Higgs field is a group of these particles that basically give things mass. Scientists wondered why there are certain particles that have mass and particles that do not have any mass at all. So the "Higgs force carriers" do not affect particles like photons therefore they have no mass. They have just recently discovered the Higgs Boson and proved the Higgs field to be true and explains how everything has mass and why some particles like the top quark has more mass then something that has no mass like a photon.

God Particle
Now I don't know about you but I remember the time, quite recently, where I heard everyone talking about the Higgs Boson particle and how it was a big deal. But how many people really know about this "God Particle"? Let me give you a little bit of an inside look on it.
