Why do particles have mass? What’s the real story behind the Higgs boson and the mysterious Higgs field? In this mind-blowing conversation, theoretical physicist Brian Greene breaks it down with Neil deGrasse Tyson, using vivid analogies and explosive insights into particle physics.
From the moment particles gain mass by “burrowing through” the Higgs field to understanding where most of a proton’s mass actually comes from, this episode is packed with revelations.
