Peter Higgs
My little tribute to Peter Higgs, who passed away few days ago.
If you don’t know who Peter is he was a British theoretical physicist who predicted the existence of a new particle and waited for almost 50 years to be discovered and confirmed. That’s the reason why I love one of his quotes: “It’s nice to be right sometimes.”
Because of this he won the Nobel in Physics in 2013.
The particle was called the “Higgs boson” or the “particle of God”, despite the fact that he was a self declared atheist.
The vector portrait of Peter is composed with all names in list of Nobel laureates in Physics from 1901.
