We have yet to see the Higgs boson, which is usually just refered to as the higgs. Where might we see the higgs? We hope in our detectors at the LHC. The higgs search is one of the most interesting parts of the research going on at CERN.

Energy has no mass, yet it exists! It's mass in another form.
