In theory, every elementary particle with spin, like quarks, electrons and others, can only have mass if it interacts with this Higgs particle, which itself is spinless. But what parts of the theory will no longer stand up if the Higgs particle is not found? And if it is found, then what do we learn, and what are the next scientific landmarks for this machine?
