The document discusses the search for the Higgs boson particle at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). It provides background on Peter Higgs and the Higgs mechanism that predicts the existence of the Higgs boson. It describes how the LHC collides protons to produce particles, focusing on strategies to discover the Higgs boson by analyzing decay products and looking for a peak in the invariant mass distribution. It outlines some of the main decay channels researchers will examine in the search.

Mankind’s ancient question न तत सूयो भाति न चनदतारकं नेमा विदयूतॉ भानि कूतोयः यमगनिः तवमेब भानताम् अनूभाति सव॔ तसय भासा सव॔मिदम विभाति In the beginning there was no sun, neither did the moon shine, nor the stars, man made light was no where. It is Your light that lit up everything else, Every thing in this world shines from Your light Where did everything come from? What is everything made up of?
