Does the Higgs Boson Give Mass to Other Bosons?
#1
Does the Higgs Boson Give Mass to Other Bosons?
Or in what way is interaction with the hb different for another boson (any boson) than for a fermion?
The god who allows children to be raped out of respect for the free will choice of the rapist, but punishes gay men for engaging in mutually consensual sex couldn't possibly be responsible for an intelligently designed universe.

I may defend your right to free speech, but i won't help you pass out flyers.

OP title: If they are not catholic clergy why should they? 

God particle after all?

Do you exist just to tease me?

If I see a potential pun I just can't let it go. So it's not just you, but you're still special.

The Higgs field provides some of the so called electroweak vector bosons, the W+,W- and the Z bosons, with their mass. The photon is, by definition, the one boson among this group that remains unaffected by the higgs field and therefore massless. Then there are the gluons which don't get affected by the higgs field at all because the higgs field does not parttake in the strong interaction of Chromodynamics which is mediated by the gluons. So outside the Higgs boson, that leaves us with the W and Z bosons who.get a mass from the Higgs field and he Photon and Gluons who don't.
The fool hath said in his heart, There is a God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.

Are they Super Gluons or Elmer's Gluons? HA I MADE A FUNNY!

If all scientist could explain things as clearly as you do, the world would be ten times smarter.

Peculiar word: Chronodynamics. Seems like a misnomer, since at first glance, I thought it had something to do with time. Although, of course, it does not.

red and anti-red, I'm painting the living room in that scheme
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Rhonda, you misread, it's Chromodynamics with an m, as in chroma, greek for color.

Careful, red shifting your living room could mean an increasingly long walk from the kitchen.

Just one unbroken series of successful gestures is all I ask of life. Is that too much?
