The 2013 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Francois Englert of Belgium and Peter Higgs of Britain for the theoretical discovery of the mechanism that gives elementary particles their mass, confirmed when CERN's Large Hadron Collider found the Higgs boson in 2012.
Robert Brout, Englert's collaborator, died in 2011, and the Nobel Prize is not awarded posthumously. Carl Hagen published a similar idea in 1964 with Guralnik and Kibble but was not among the laureates.
