Physicists

A physicist is a scientist who specializes in the field of physics, which encompasses the interactions of matter and energy at all length and time scales in the physical universe. Physicists generally are interested in the root or ultimate causes of phenomena, and usually frame their understanding in mathematical terms. Physicists work across a wide range of research fields, spanning all length scales: from sub-atomic and particle physics, through biological physics, to cosmological length scales encompassing the universe as a whole. The field generally includes two types of physicists: experimental physicists who specialize in the observation of physical phenomena and …

To test the predictions, physicists developed ATLAS3, the largest detector ever constructed any straightforward method. First, theoretical physicists predicted the possible decay modes and the probability Then, to confirm the existence of Higgs boson, physicists empirically identified these decay products and possible decay pathways. These simulations offered physicists a benchmark to compare data from the LHC's detectors
