In 2012, scientists at CERN discovered evidence of the Higgs boson. The what? The Higgs boson is one of two types of fundamental particles and is a particular game-changer in the field of particle physics, proving how particles gain mass. Using the Socratic method, CERN scientists Dave Barney and Steve Goldfarb explain the exciting implications of the Higgs boson.
Lesson by Dave Barney and Steve Goldfarb, animation by Jeanette Nørgaard.

I swear, they should make a cartoon serie like this with the same art style, with these two exploring the word of science. I do not often comment, but this episode is too great.
prototype test, Rick and Morty
Yes they should
Phinous and ferb
Agree with you 👌
I couldn’t agree more!!!
he didn't give him the cherry :(
+Matias Alric Not to meantion his almond and spoon vanishing never to return.
Lol.. I thought of commenting about that and checked once.. You already did :D
maybe he's straight.
I have been looking for this comment. Thanks😊 The alien dude don’t get the cherry he wanted 😢
Exactly 😂
he never got his ice cream back
I know. :(
Life is hard
+FlorbenGorben Not life itself. The bosons are.
+Samuel Pearson No cherry either. The life of a blues man.
+Samuel Pearson Or the cherry promised to him :(
Why can't I go to a bar and talk about particle physics and quantum mechanics with friends?
Yes, you can.
Cause U would be too drunk to talk about it and U would stumbling and mumbling
First you need a kindness friend like Steve then you can "talk"
Because you are not my friend? (yet..?)
Hey. I have a question. Why is it that they said that an elementary particle is something that cannot be divided, but we study the Higgs boson through the particles it creates after it decays? The question is whether a Higgs boson is elementary or not (if not what is it and what is it made of?).
I really like the vibe the animation gives off. Almost a creepy feeling, but happy as well
Thought it was just me :s (x
same here

The man looks like the weird man who watches me while I sleep
No just chilly
Seriously, this animation is awesome... And that english accent is the icing on the cake.
damn right you are. loved it
Dave - cherry on top*
They have an accent? Sry but I’m pretty sure this is just standard English
Everyone has an accent
@@nickel9962 It's British received pronunciation, which is the standard for English in Britain pretty much. Even so, they clearly have a British accent.
Let the pink alien eat cherry

@Judihatemmoharram Judihatemmoharram She says, just like Marie Antoinette
Let me see if I get this straight: there is a field all around that massless particles, such as photons cannot interact with. However, elementary particles, like quarks, fermions, electrons and bosons, can interact with it. Now, as they crash into the Higgs field, they slowly build on mass, making them bigger/heavier and thus slower. Like a cherry you dip into whipped cream; the cream sticks to the cherry and makes it heavier and more voluminous, thus harder to move through the milkshake.
The Higgs boson is a momentary excitation of the field, that creates large waves. It is a particle and a wave at the same time, being so small. It proves that the field exists... And that's all I got. The boson is the splash, it's the reaction of a large particle moving at a certain speed/frequency in the field... Makes sense?
I think you got it.
I'm going to require more whipped cream to test this at home.
Sophie Proud, you made the laymen proud with this explaination! ^.^
You got it straight . I rewatched the video carefully and related to your explanation. Perfectly fits
Almost! It's not that a particle will *accumulate* mass from the Higgs field, exactly -- it's more that some types of particles notice the field more than others, and are more affected by it. Imagine dropping a piece of paper and a small rock off the top of a tall building at the same time. The two objects can have the same mass, but the piece of paper will fall much slower because it's more affected by air resistance. The paper, due to it's internal properties, is more affected by the air around it than the pebble is.
The Higgs field works the same way: different particles will interact to varying degrees with the Higgs field. Some, like the photon, will pass right through it as if it isn't even there (like the pebble), while some will be slowed down a great deal (like the paper)! The amount by which an elementary particle is "slowed" by the Higgs field is how we actually *define* mass.
I Could Totally Hang Out With That Red Monster Thing
His name is steve
Red?? I swear it was pink!
Sock worm monster seems like nice guy, gives off good vibes
He kinna cute 😳
"Now, you see the cherry in my shake."
"Can I have it?"
"No, not yet."
Steve never got the cherry...
steve is really cute and thats pretty much the only thing I was paying attention to this whole time
You speak the truth
+Nick Hackett i loved his accent! hes awesome
me too
Varoon agreed
Varoon yo homo!
Best part is how he worries cause he wouldnt be able to eat the ice cream
This is an absolutely fantastic simplification of basic particle physics. I love it, thank you TED, for giving humanity this amazing learning tool.
This is a wonderful video. The cartoon characters held my feeble attention span nicely and I understand the Higgs boson better now.
This is not wonderful. This is abyssal.
+Thomas stampe Brock
I don't think that word means what you think it means.
*May the Higgs force field be with you* and give you some mass. ;)
+Tanmaya Meher [triggered anorexic]
+GarketMardener :D :)
+Tanmaya Meher The Higgs is STRONG with this one!!
Tazim Sinjal yeah !! :)
Lol
For CONFUSED people :
It's funny how people react to their confusion after such a video. It's normal, it is confusing and that's what science is really like. Science is all about questions, if you stop asking yourself questions then there would be no science. We discovered a lot of things so far, so much that a usual person would hardly come up with a question with no answer. So now we are left asking ourselves questions that might seem very abstract. We question the existence of things like mass, energy, matter, time. These are the basic rules and we have to tackle them. It's like asking why 1+1=2, why not 1+1=3 or 1+1=banana ? Of course it's confusing, but we have to answer this if we want to understand the world around us.
In fact it's good to be left confused, it pushes you toward the answer.
+ShadowKick32 Wait so 1+1 ISN'T banana??? My parents lied about Santa and now THIS!!!
Actually, 1+1=3
I feel like if I do understand it I should like it, and if I don't like the video I will be automaticaly a person that does not understand what it was about.
Well I did understand what they are talking about and I think they are not doing good work with explaining it to others.
ShadowKick32 👍
Totally disagree. It's not good to feel confused. It's good to feel satisfied. Answers are good. Questions are good. Questing to find answers is good. Being confused? Not good.
I think this guy broke steves mind a few times.
Lucas, the Prince of Cats I don't mind. That's the beauty of science. In many cases, the rules are counter intuitive.
The explanation is so well articulated that it makes it easier to comprehend Higgs Boson.Keep up the good work TED!
Steve was too cute
Fernanda Jaor yeah. his speech was also very quirky and amusing.😄😄😄😄😍
I clicked on this video because of the thumbnail showing him. That thumbnail called my attention.
I love his accent
Yeah ❤️❤️❤️
Fantastic explanation ! Very clear. When you know how to explain something THAT way, you really know what you are talking about, and that tells all of us that we're on the right track to understand better the ultimate reality parts. Good work !
The cherry and shake analogy is very helpful! I am writing a paper that involves explaining the Higgs Boson and the Higgs Field, and this is perfect for breaking it down and explaining it to others who may not know even what a boson is. Thank you so much for this beautiful and informative video!
Can you please share the link, if you've written it?
This video is absolutely amazing. Simple, concise and easy to understand... better yet practical. Thanks for sharing it.
this is one of the best Ted-ed videos ever, the animation, the narration, the characters and the atmosphere really engages the viewer to keep watching the video, I got to know more about the Higgs-Boson from this video. Thanks Ted-Ed
To be honest, the profound informations of Higgs Boson delivered through such simple interactions is really an awesome way of learning!! Thanks a lot! You have made education really cool!
I think I almost understood ...
***** Nothing gives information on how it works since it is completely unknown.
***** None of that has anything to do with how it works, we don't even know how gravity works.
Think about it.
***** You want to know how the Higgs Boson gives matter mass?
***** The effect of the Higgs boson field depends on the surface area of a particle. The more surface the more Higgs bosons it displaces or interacts with as it moves through space.
It acts in a similar fashion to buoyancy. Only if all objects were buoyant and solid with the same buoyancy. Changing the surface area would be the only way to make an object give more upward force.

This is a gold comment.
That´s actually the most convenient and easiest to understand explanation i could find. Great Work!
Wish me luck with my presentation about particle accelerators!
Oh man, I just got recommended this blast from the past! Seriously? It’s what got me interested in science. Just the way how it casually explained this fascinating thing was amazing to me! I choose the path of arts and animation, but studying quantum physics was a serious career path option for a while. I’m not really caught up on this stuff, idk if the Higgs boson is still even a viable model, but watching this very video was a defining part of my childhood.
This is the perfect explanation I've come across... And I wish, there should come a cartoon series just like this based on every physics concepts ....even kids will love to study and will never forget the concepts which they have learnt in this manner 👏👏
Beautifully done, awesome animation. I loved the voices, the expressions the characters had and the little parts that made it not a class but a fun video to watch.
Also, the explanation is great, I'll be sure to pass it to some friends.
This has got to be one of my favorite Ted Ed videos.
Wow. Cute and informative at the same time with so much clarity and proper pauses. Just wow !
Perfect educative animation, I love this. They should continue with this style
Am I the only one who thinks these TED videos don't actually explain anything? I'm often more confused after watching them.
nope
+Alan Jay nope
+Alan Jay Agree with you on this particular video, But not on all of TED videos.
+Alan Jay I'm an average student and I got what they were trying to say the first time I watched.
Arnaldo Manuel "If you think you understand quantum mechanics, you don't understand quantum mechanics". -Richard Feynman
The Higgs field gives you mass??!! I must be interacting with it extensively given my weight.
Such a beautiful and clarifying explanation!
I wish the authors would create a series about science with Steve and Dave! Amazing, watched it 3 times and shared with friend)
But the ultimate question is...HOW DOES STEVE GET THE ICE CREAM TO HIS MOUTH?
It happens when a particle moves through the Higgs field. The splash of ice cream comes to Steve
That moment when u want to become a particle physicist when you grow up, but you're to dumb to do so. :(
Don't be so hard on yourself. Start small, learn the basics. Once you master those, dig deeper. It will be a lot of studying, but if you enjoy it, it will become a little more natural.
wherethetatosat I could honestly try as hard as possible. But when you get down to it, I am just not good at math. Can't do calculations and won't remember equations... :(
when you practice practice, you practice! :)
Lol i know right 😂😩
TheLSales 😂😂😂
That was an excellent explanation. I am getting closer to partly understanding the standard model. Thank you for the video.🌱
Gosh, I loved this video! Different than the other ones, so great!
OMG THAT WORM THING IS SO CUTE!!!
Since the Higgs Boson can decay into particles, does that mean that it is not an elementary particle?
well.. the lepton tau decays into the lepton muon and the lepton muon decays and becomes an electron.
the tau and muon particles DO exist.
Oh okay.
It is the event.
Think of a wave in the ocean, or any body of water, the wave isn't the water, it is the movement of the water particles reaction with and against each other. When it crashes against the shore there is an energy release and a physical property to the result.
think of it as an specific energy bundle... it isnt made of something smaller but its a specific quanta of energy.
so since it has very high energy it basically gives the energy to the universe to make small stable energy particle..
its more like you have a dollar and you convert it in other currency.
the dollar isnt made of that currency. but they are interchangeable
Elementary particles can decay into different things, say if we ripped a neutron out of a nucleus, it would decay as it won’t be too stable, elementary doesn’t mean un-decayable, it just means it isn’t made of anything
Great way to explain a complex thing in simple and interesting words.. Thanks..
I‘m really glad videos like this exist, they‘re really helpful!
TH-cam is a wonderful thing . We can learn so much here !
Lolol "Are you serious?" 4:06
Love this video from the core of the heart, from every elementary particle
Seriously how good are these Ted Ed science talks.. BBC used to be my first port of call but recently all I see are repeats on the IPlayer. This allows me to feed my geeky science side! 🥰
"You see the cherry in my shake?" "Can I have it?" Steve's cartoon character is sooo cute.
Can someone please direct me to a place where I can be like the Steve in the video asking questions after questions and not get called 'dumb' for it? I wanna know! But the fear of asking 'stupid questions' always holds me back.
It's called school. It matters not whether you know all the answers, anybody with a strong desire to learn is smart in my book.
theres no such thing as a smart question or more accurately all questions come from our ignorance but its the desire to eradicate that ignorance that causes intelligent people to emerge.
But you will not have cherry then
Wow, TED-ed I really admire the beautiful animation sequel you have built up in this
demonstration.
this is one of my favorite Ted videos really fun and easy to understand
Well if this could be how students get to learn in school, there would be a new generation of Einsteins walking on this planet
Wish I had a physics teacher like him
Just LOOOVED to listen Barney talk!
this was the first episode of ted ed i've watched and what got me into it, this is basically nostalgia
"You see the cherry in my shake?"
"Can I have it?"
"No! Not yet! We have to use it as an analogy first"
the target audience for this video doesn't exist: a second grader also interested in having the higgs field explained to them.
This video is very good at explaining the stuff it intends to. Very well done.
Wish they could do it with their uncertainty principle video. That was hard to cope up with.
The simplest tutorial video I have ever seen I just love it
This has definitively left me more confused :-/
+DrMorocho How come? I get his meaning.
+Teoh Tong Wei I can't answer for anyone else. If I may offer some things I found confusing:
"The shake gives the cherry its mass" What? Maybe they need to extend the analogy to account for some property the shake imparts to the cherry just as the Higgs field imparts mass to a fundamental particle, but that's not what's in the video.
Further, as the video doesn't go into explaining what the Higgs field is, only saying that it's "everywhere," we are left to imagine the Higgs boson as an excitation of a thing which is left unexplained.
Also unclear to me is whether the excitation/splash is an event or an object. Is the "splash" which is the boson the incident of the splash occurring, or do they mean the quantity of milkshake which leaves the container when the splash occurs?
+DrMorocho Correct me if i'm wrong, i'm not completely into quantum phisics but my understanding is this:
Imagine an object moving through water, the larger the object, the more difficult it would be for it to be moved because of the resistance of the water. Same happens in higgs field, as a particle passes through it (it is everywhere) the higgs offers some resistance slowing them down and giving them mass. For example, a photon has no mass so it travels always at lightspeed, like any object that has no mass, and every object with mass can't reach that speed because the higgs field slows them down, and we percieve that interaction as mass.
+bruno alves Thank you for attempting to clarify. I'm sorry I still do not get this.
An object moving through water (or any other fluid including air) does not gain mass from the fluid (water), unless it absorbs some of the fluid. Are you saying that particles absorb part of the Higgs field?
No, imagine trying to run in water at the level of your knees, you cant run as fast as you do when you run outside of water, the higgs field acts a bit like this, slowing some particles down, the more slowed they are, the more mass they have, thats why photons dont have mass, because they travel at the speed of light there fore the higgs field doesnt affect them.
poor Steve... please give him his ice cream back
Wow. This is SO well done!
There is just something about this skit that I love so much, wish I could see more of Dave and especially Steve, he is so adorable :)
"I there were no Higgs field nothing would exist." It sounds like they know it exists.
They do.
Derek Steiner they do lol
Derek Steiner They don't. The thing is, if the Higgs Field does not exist, this means the standard model is inaccurate (the mass is due to something else). If the Higgs Boson turns out just as they expected, it'd mean that the standard model is correct. If not, then it will be replaced (like the many many models before it).
Derek Steiner You are right. That is a bit of a short cut. For fundamental particles to have mass, we need either a Higgs field or some other explanation (like strange things happening in WW scattering). In the end, it seems the Higgs field is what we have.
Anyone else jumping back to 2:55? Does anyone know if the higgs field has been linked to dark matter or dark energy?
Nooooooo...but plzz explain it...I'm so intrigued
AMAZING animations and amazing content, seriously
Nice narration..kudos to that concept
I can hear Sheldon mocking me for not understanding
still no idea what's going on....
SOUNDWAVE!!!!!!
Thank you for making this!
wonderfully explained. awesome animation n the accents
Steve is adorable!
I know they want me to project myself onto the right character, but I feel more like the inanimate table.
This may be the first Ted-Ed video that I couldn't understand initially. All the other ones are really good at giving simplified versions of complicated lessons.
Very good information explained in a simple manner.
Did Steve got cherry? :)
Columbus didn't discover shit
He murdered a lot of people for the good they didn't have.
Amazing video and love the art and animation!
Lovely voice acting, animation and illustration of a complicated topic
I am trying to understand this, but it is very confusing. Is this how it is? The computer monitor is the universe. The flat computer screen is the higgs field, all the pixels are the higgs bossons, and the images the screen produces that you see are the particles that the higgs bosson makes to form an image? That's how I understand this. I shall call this the computer screen model. hahaha
+Megatronimus
Well, as they explained in the video, it's all about the interaction between the object and the higgs field, right? So, the higgs boson gives it weight when it interacts with an object, like dropping a cherry in a shake.
If anyone calls it the "god particle" im going to slap you. Its the GODDAMN particle.
Physicists will finally explain God 0.00000001 seconds before his second coming. By then it will be too late
@@Chungustav He didn't come the first time.
It is one of the best video ever I had seen about particle physics.
This episode is wonderful!
does the red dude remind anybody else of brady haran?
George Higgins Steve
numberphile😂
When the roach or whatever said, “Ok, I get it...” I actually didn’t and I’m human. Embarrassing stuff.
I glad there are some people in the world smart enough to understand all this!
Never knew such simple animation could provide so much knowledge
Waaaaaait... how can the Higgs Boson break up into "lighter", more stable, particles, when it is the thing that gives mass and weigh?
+MegaMementoMori It's an excitation of the field, call it a "starting point", then that excitation transforms into another particle almost immediately. I don't know how to explain it, at quantum sizes things aren't just... solid or anything they're just points with properties that move across the universe. It's theorized that it's, just like the milkshake splash, a wave in an invisible "UNIVERSAL PRINCIPLE" field. I don't know very well it's just elemental physics... uhh...
*****
I guess that it's a common reaction to things related to quantum science :p
+MegaMementoMori The Higgs boson doesnt give mass, the Higgs field does. The boson is more like a "kink" in the field.
magicstix0r
So Higgs field and boson exist separately? Does it have something to do with wave-corpuscle duality? And what particles does the boson break up to anyway, quarks?
So much questions, lol :p
MegaMementoMori The Higgs field is like the surface of the ocean, the Higgs boson is like a big wave in the ocean.
Whenever someone explains particle physics to us biology majors. 4:06
A very nice and crystal clear explanation.
I was wondering from quiet a few days about the God Particle Higgs Boson and found that one of my favourite education channels has already made a video 8 years ago.
Btw, I'm 15 right now.
I hope you guys make more
So where does maths come in? i know its going to sneak in somewhere, fucking maths.
most probably wave functions or statistics
Using metaphores to explain quantum physics is not making it any easier!
Really Fantastic! Nicely Done!
This is the best way I have seen to provide knowledge about something.....
I ᴍɪss ᴛʜɪs ɪɴᴛʀᴏ
Neutron, Protron, Electron walk into the bar, the Neutron didn't get charge but the Protron and Electron did get charge. Get it Neutron didn't have electric-charges
I love it, for a simple mind like me.
You guys have no idea how this help,
Thank you sir 👍
This is beautiful to me. Congratulations for this great idea.
