The '''discovery of the Higgs boson''' in 2012 was announced through two landmark scientific papers—one from the [[ATLAS experiment]]<ref>Observation of a new particle in the search for the Standard Model Higgs boson with the ATLAS detector at the LHC, ATLAS Collaboration, ''Phys. Lett. B''  '''716''' (2012) 1–29, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2012.08.020.</ref> and one from the [[CMS experiment]]<ref>Observation of a New Boson at a Mass of 125 GeV with the CMS Experiment at the LHC, CMS Collaboration, ''Phys. Lett. B''  '''716''' (2012) 30–61, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.physletb.2012.08.021.</ref> at [[CERN]]. These papers are among the most important in modern particle physics because they confirmed the existence of the long-predicted Higgs field.

Before these papers, the Higgs boson was a missing piece of the [[Standard Model]], originally proposed by [[Peter Higgs]] and others in 1964.<ref>Broken symmetries, massless particles and gauge fields, Peter W. Higgs, ''Phys. Lett.'' '''12''' (1964) 132–133, https://doi.org/10.1016/0031-9163(64)91136-9.</ref><ref>Broken Symmetries and the Masses of Gauge Bosons, Peter W. Higgs, ''Phys. Rev. Lett.''
