Correct Answer: Higgs BosonYour Answer: A
The correct answer is Option A — Higgs Boson. The Higgs Boson is nicknamed the 'God Particle' because it was theorized to be responsible for giving mass to all other particles. It was discovered at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in 2012.
Why other options are wrong:
Option B (Neutron): The neutron is a neutral subatomic particle found in the nucleus. It is NOT called the God Particle.
Option C (Pion): A pion (pi-meson) is a subatomic particle involved in the nuclear force. It is not called the God Particle.
Option D (Positron): A positron is the antimatter counterpart of an electron (positive charge). It is not called the God Particle.
