Ten years after it discovered the Higgs boson, the Large Hadron Collider is about to start smashing protons together at unprecedented energy levels in its quest to reveal more secrets about how the universe works.

The discovery revolutionized physics in part because the boson fit within the– the mainstream theory of all the fundamental particles that make up matter and the forces that govern them.

"The Higgs boson is related to some of the most profound open questions in fundamental physics today," said CERN director-general Fabiola Gianotti, who first announced the boson's discovery a decade ago.
