Aspects of High Energy Nuclear Physics :The Higgs

Abstract: Although the Higgs particle is at the centre-stage of the Standard Model of particle physics and in many other related models, it has not been experimentally found so far. One of the major objectives of the Large Hadron Collider experiments is to detect the Higgs. In this article, we highlight the problems encountered in the Higgs sector of particle physics and their possible solutions, with particular emphasis on the Little Higgs Model. We also indicate the reaction channels by which the Higgs can possibly be found in high energy accelerator experiments.
