PARTING THE VEIL

The new model put forward by a team headed by Christoffer Petersson, a theoretical particle physicist from Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden, suggests that the Higgs boson, discovered by the LHC in 2012, might be responsible for the birth of dark matter particles. According to this model, if supersymmetry is real, the Higgs particle can disintegrate into a photon -- a light carrying particle -- and a dark matter particle.

Supersymmetry predicts that there are more massive “super partners” for every known particle, and is an extension of the Standard Model of particle physics, which governs our understanding of the quantum world. The Higgs boson, which is responsible for imparting mass to all other particles, was the last missing piece that completed the Standard Model. However, even the completed version of this theory fails to incorporate gravity and explain the origin and preponderance of dark matter in the universe.
