Fermilab scientist (and CMS collaborator) Don Lincoln describes the concept of how the search for the Higgs boson is accomplished. The latest data is revealed! Several large experimental groups are hot on the trail of this elusive subatomic particle which is thought to explain the origins of particle mass.

This video needs an update. The CERN, being more diligent than FermiLab, have already found the Higgs.

Actually, Dr. Lincoln is a collaborator on the CMS experiment at CERN, as are many other Fermilab scientists.

You guys might need to make a new video.

It's still a really good video. The best explanation of how the search went that I have seen,

This claim is incorrect. 98% of mass comes from something other than the Higgs field. It is true, however, that atoms wouldn't exist, as the radius of the orbit of an electron around an atom is inversely proportional to the mass of the electron. Zero mass = infinite radius.

Yes. The problem is that that object would then be a bunch of massless energy. So if you did that then it would be a very effective way to kill yourself :)

Unfortunately no. The Higgs field explains the mass of the quarks and leptons, but this is but 2% the mass of the universe. The remainder of the mass comes from the strong force forcefield that makes up protons and neutrons. If you change the Higgs field, you don't much change the mass of the protons and neutrons. You do, however, make it impossible for atoms to form. So I hope you don't figure out a way to do that....

So, if I find a way to change the way an object interacts with the Higgs field such that I make the object massless, does that means travelling at the speed of light is possible?

FOR PEOPLE SAYING THAT CERN FOUND HIGGS BOSON.GOOGLE IS YOUR FRIEND.I'LL PASTE FROM CERN SITE.
A problem for many years has been that no experiment has observed the Higgs boson to confirm the theory. On 4 July 2012, the ATLAS and CMS experiments at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) announced they had each observed a new particle in the mass region around 126 GeV. This particle is consistent with the Higgs boson but it will take further work to determine whether it is indeed a Higgs particle

The last 30 seconds or so gives additional information. The Dec 12 video was released the day before the LHC announced their results on the Higgs boson. This was updated the following day.

It hasn't been found conclusively yet. You people need to get your facts right.
