Peter Higgs (1929-2024), British theoretical physicist, at the CMS (compact muon solenoid) detector, CERN (the European particle physics laboratory) near Geneva, Switzerland. The CMS detector sits around the large hadron collider (LHC) particle accelerator. The main goal of the CMS experiment was the discovery of the Higgs boson, an elementary particle predicted by the Standard Model of particle physics. Higgs, along with Francois Englert, was awarded the 2013 Nobel Prize in Physics for the discovery of the Higgs field.
