eing: Symmetry Broken, Physics Fixed 203 was written down in the context of a nonrelativistic condensed matter setting—combined with its violating Goldstone's theorem from particle physics, which implied that symmetry breaking and massless particles were inseparable—meant that his claim that massless st

owing Higgs's stint at the summer school in 1960, he began to study the literature on symmetry and symmetry breaking, examin- ing the work of Nambu, Goldstone, Salam, Weinberg, and Anderson. Higgs became depressed by the seemingly hopeless task of reconciling Goldstone's theorem with the possibility of ma
