Higgs Papercraft
To accompany a cover story about the discovery of the Higgs boson, French magazine Le Monde turned to a non-traditional artform: Paper. The studio Zim & Zou constructed these paper designs to represent the CERN particle collisions that allowed “Le Boson de Higgs” to be detected, the “missing puzzle piece” of physics that the Higgs represented, and the relationship of how the Higgs field (the balloons) give things mass in the first place. (via)
Refresh your Higgs knowledge with MinutePhysics’ awesome explainers on the subject: Part I, Part II and Part III.
Previously: Quilled paper anatomical cross-sections by Lisa Nilsson.

About

I'm Joe Hanson, Ph.D. biologist and host/writer of PBS Digital Studios' It's Okay To Be Smart. Check out my "Episode Extras" here. There's a lot of amazing science out there. Let's go discover it together.

Joe's science book recommendations, from brains to biology to space to art to physics.

This is an indie blog that takes many hours a week to publish. If you'd like to support It's Okay To Be Smart, please consider even a small donation.
