Wonderful memory of New Year's Eve day, 10 years ago: I gave an outreach lecture on the Higgs boson, the discovery of which we announced earlier that year, to an attentive group of schoolchildren in Purkal Village, Dehradun, Uttarakhand, India. I used stones from the Ganges River to represent protons and beauty quarks, and a pomegranate bought in Rishikesh to represent the Higgs. #higgs #higgboson #PYDS #Purkal #India #physics #particle #particlephysics #scicomm #cern #atlas #atlasexperiment
