ATLAS gets under the hood of the #Higgs mechanism.

The detection of longitudinally polarised W boson production at the #LHC is an important step towards understanding how the primordial electroweak symmetry broke, giving rise to the masses of elementary particles. More↓ atlas.cern/Updates/Pres...
ATLAS gets under the hood of the Higgs mechanism
Display of a candidate event for the production of two W+ bosons via vector-boson scattering, followed by their decay into two muons and two muon neutrinos. The muons are represented by the red lines ...
