希格斯玻色子的历史概况

A Historical Profile of the Higgs Boson

John Ellis, Mary K. Gaillard, Dimitri V. Nanopoulos

摘要:

希格斯玻色子在1964年被提出,而对它可能产生和衰变的唯象学研究开始于20世纪70年代初,随后是对它可能在e+ e-、pbar p和pp碰撞中产生的研究。直到最近,对希格斯玻色子最敏感的搜索是在1989年到2000年之间在LEP进行的,这与费米实验室Tevatron的搜索相辅相成。大型强子对撞机最近也加入了搜寻的行列,排除了一个质量范围很大的希格斯玻色子玻色子,并在119到125 GeV的范围内揭示了一个诱人的线索,而且有很好的前景,希格斯玻色子玻色子的存在与否将很快得到证实。最有吸引力的可能性之一是希格斯玻色子伴随着超对称性,尽管复合选项尚未被排除。本文回顾了过去半个世纪希格斯物理学的一些关键历史发展。

英文摘要:

The Higgs boson was postulated in 1964, and phenomenological studies of its possible production and decays started in the early 1970s, followed by studies of its possible production in e+ e-, pbar p and pp collisions, in particular. Until recently, the most sensitive searches for the Higgs boson were at LEP between 1989 and 2000, which have been complemented by searches at the Fermilab Tevatron. The LHC has recently entered the hunt, excluding a Higgs boson over a large range of masses and revealing a tantalizing hint in the range 119 to 125 GeV, and there are good prospects that the existence or otherwise of the Higgs boson will soon be established. One of the most attractive possibilities is that the Higgs boson is accompanied by supersymmetry, though composite options have yet to be excluded. This article reviews some of the key historical developments in Higgs physics over the past half-century.
