Some questions.

What was the time of emergence of higgs ?:)

 

Did it appeared at the same time bosons appeared ?:sherlock:

 

Just after the quark-anti-quark era, can higgs appear ? how?

 

These questions are riddling me and i want to get them solved .

My comprehension of particle physics and the Big Bang isn’t adequate to this question, but taking wikipedia on partially-bind faith, the answer is, I think, that the Higgs boson appeared slightly later at 10^-12 s, than the gluon boson, which appeared at the same time as quarks, at 10^-33. (source: Wikipedia article “Timeline of the Big Bang”)

 

Theory of this sort, beyond current experimental testability, leaves me with an uneasy feeling. I would not be surprised if much of it is wrong.

It was not the same way for neutrons and neutrinos.One reason is that the neutrino is a findamental particle and the neutron is a composite of the fundamental quark particles.

So you have the electron and the selectron and I'm not sure but I would say you have the quark and the squark :D

Such things can happen due to history, they couldn't always guess the best choice. For instance the term meson was coined for particles of mass intermediate between that of electrons and baryons. The muon was initially called a mu-meson but this turned out to be a rather unhappy choice.
