Peter Higgs, physicist who theorised Higgs boson, dies aged 94
The renowned scientist won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 2013.
RIP. Thanks for all the knowledge. As an aside, I thought I was looking at a picture of Chevy Chase at first.

As per his request, his funeral will be held at the Hadron collider.
Where his body will be accellerated to near light speed before it is collided with the anti-Higgs.

Rest in peace, Boss(on) man. Some hefty contributions to our understanding of quantum physics, and all around a good civilized man.

I'm still cheesed it's not unanimous that Roger Penrose is the greatest living physicist.
Like., I'm pretty sure even Hawking says it's Penrose, he just never got his name on something household famous.
2 3 ReplyPenrose like Linus Pauling went down the crackpot road which damaged his reputation.
Pauling went around news programs claiming mega doses of vitamin C would cure cancer.
Penrose got into "quantum mind" crackpottery.

Weird way to say:
Has spent 20 years working on a theory of what causes consciousness and has pretty much the only idea besides "who the duck knows"
