the big bang created the universe. the theories of physics say particles raced around with any mass in the beginning. but scientists say at a certain point the higgs boson sailed space. the higgs gave other particles mass and restricted their movement. scientists believe that caused particles to stick together leading to the creation of stars, planets, and eventually humans. physicists believe the higgs boson is densely concentrated in space. they've been using something called a large hadron collider. the particle accelerator is a looped pipe in a tunnel 100 meters underground beneath the swiss/french border. trying to get protons close to light speed. then they fire them in different directions. they create a reaction designed to simulate the big bang. from there researchers analyze the particles generated by the collision. peter higgs was in his 30s when he came up with this ground breaking theory. he's now 83 years old. the physicist was on hand for the announcement and said he thought he'd never live to see this da

the only student in his course. she also began to study at clark university. when she returned to teach psychology at wellesley in the fall of 1891, she set up a psychology laboratory at the college, one of the first dozen in the country. when she inquired about further study, she learned that hugo munsterberg was moving to harvard and would conduct the psychology lab. beginning in 1892, she studied with him for three years and from the outcert published in important psychological journals. he sought her admission to the ph.d. program, writing to elliott the governing board, and i quote. her publications and her work here do not let any doubt to me that she is superior to all candidates of the philosophical phd during the last years. more than that, she is surely one of the strongest professors of psychology in this country. the records for the harvard corporation, october 29, 1894 noted that munsterberg's request was considered and refused. nonetheless, calkins submitted her thesis. she is stubborn, on association of ideas to the department and was examined by
