  • Electron

  • Photon

  • Neutron

  • Higgs Boson

Answer

The Higgs Boson, a fundamental particle in physics, had its properties elucidated by Yoichiro Nambu's groundbreaking work. Nambu's theory predicted the existence of a field that interacts with other particles, giving them mass. The Higgs Boson is the carrier of this field, and its discovery in 2012 confirmed Nambu's predictions, providing crucial insights into the fundamental nature of matter and the forces that govern it.
