A '''Higgs boson''' is an elementary particle whose existence is predicted by the [[Standard Model]] of particle physics.  It serves a key role in explaining the origin of mass of other elementary particles of the Standard Model.  It has not yet been observed in nature, but it is expected to be seen at the Large Hadron Collider that is currently being built in Europe.  Physicist Leon Lederman coined and popularized the term "God Particle" to describe the Higgs boson. This was a reference to the way the particle has so far alluded experimental observation "that goddamn particle!"<ref> Lederman L., The God Particle: If the Universe Is the Answer, What Is the Question?, New York:Dell, 1993</ref>.
