PublicoTogether with his collaborator, Robert Broot, he formulated the existence, in 1964, of an elusive subatomic particle without which nothing would exist, because he is responsible for conferring mass on the particles.
In 2013, François Englert was awarded the Nobel Prize in conjunction with the British Peter Higgs. Both laid the theoretical foundations, since 1964, which led to the discovery of the boson in 2012 in the Swiss laboratory of CERN.
The Belgian physicist and 2013 Nobel laureate passed away at the age of 93, leaving behind a vast scientific legacy.
The Higgs boson is considered by physicists to be the fundamental stone of the basic structure of matter, the elementary particle that gives mass to many others.
