&gt; The Higgs is believed to endow other particles with mass<p><i>Please</i> correct me if I&#x27;m wrong, but after digging into things a bit I&#x27;ve determined that the Higgs Boson is nothing more than <i>evidence</i> of the Higgs Field - which is the thing actually responsible for mass as a result of energy moving through it. Is this a common misconception or is it me that has the misconception?
