Greetings Vortex-l: What is the difference between Santa Claus and the Higgs Particle????
Santa Claus is "Real". Ron Kita, Chiralex A note on the Virtual: To describe the indescribable, what the Higgs Boson does is create a field of virtual particles that pop in and out of existence, and while they’re in existence those "virtual" particles provide mass to other particles that are able to interact with them.
