It's not Higgs's fault that you're so heavy! / To nie wina Higgs'a, że jesteś taki ciężki! (liceum)

Wykład w języku angielskim / Lecture in english

When the Higgs particle was discovered at CERN in 2012, there were many articles in the media describing how all the particles get their masses from the Higgs particle. However, most of the mass of the matter around us does not arise from the interaction with the Higgs, but from the interaction binding quarks and gluons to protons and neutrons. In this talk I will describe both the Higgs mechanism creating mass for particles, how protons and neutrons gain their mass, and our attempts to create matter where quarks and gluons are not bound to protons and neutrons – which is not massless!
