I hope students Cotham School will be inspired.

Very sad to hear this. To physicists of all generations, he will always be a great. As an educator in Bristol, I’m glad to know he went to Cotham School, together with his brilliant physicist predecessor, Paul Dirac. Not a bad roster for one school! #AllTimeGreat #PhysicsHero

My obituary of Peter Higgs in his favourite newspaper theguardian.com/science/2024/a…

‘Elusive’ by Frank Close is the closest thing to a biography of Higgs we’ll get. My review of ‘Elusive’ from 2022, exactly ten years after the discovery of the particle named after him amp.theguardian.com/books/2022/jul…

Peter Higgs, after whom the Higgs boson is named, has died 8 April aged 94.
