Abstract
The last particle that completes the Standard Model of Elementary Particles, the most sophisticated theory of nature in human history, was discovered in 2012. Although the present formulation of the theory comes from the 1960s and 70s, it incorporates all discoveries that thousands of scientists made about elementary particles and their interactions (except for gravity) since the 1700s. Even if briefly, here we review the development of the major concepts included in the theory and explain the relevance of the new particle and the mechanism for which F. Englert and P. Higgs received the Nobel Prize in Physics 2013
