Let's meet around the most discreet and mysterious of particles: the Higgs Boson discovered just 10 years ago at the LHC, the large particle accelerator at CERN in Geneva.

The Boson of Brout Englert and Higgs is far from having revealed all its secrets.

It is even these mysterious behaviors and these anomalies that today excite particle physicists around the world, to open dizzying new questions about the birth of the Universe, from this Higgs Boson, of which we even wonder s wouldn't he be a hermaphrodite?
