The 12 pages that link to Peter Higgs, each with the reason it gives.

• Higgs mechanismRelated: His paper made the associated scalar particle explicit.

• Higgs bosonRelated: His 1964 paper described a massive scalar particle associated with the mechanism.

• University of EdinburghRelated: Higgs spent most of his academic career as a professor at Edinburgh.

• Higgs fieldRelated: His paper made the field’s associated particle an explicit prediction.

• ATLAS experimentRelated: The Higgs boson sought by ATLAS bears his name and tests the mechanism he helped formulate.

• Yukawa interactionRelated: The Higgs framework made Yukawa couplings central to explaining charged-fermion masses.

• Electroweak symmetry breakingRelated: His 1964 paper gave a particularly clear account of the massive vector boson.

• François EnglertRelated: His independent paper supplied the name most widely attached to the mechanism Englert and Brout had also proposed.

• University of BristolRelated: Higgs earned his physics doctorate at Bristol before developing his influential particle theory.

• Robert BroutRelated: His independent work helped establish the mechanism later associated with Brout, Englert, and Higgs.

• King's College LondonRelated: He earned his doctorate at King's College London.

• Gerard ’t HooftRelated: The Higgs mechanism supplies the symmetry breaking central to the renormalizable electroweak theory.
