Why does there have to be something(higgs field) that gives other things mass?

I often hear people say that the Higgs field gives things mass. How can I understand that with out going deep in quantum mechanics, field theory, and the standard model? thanks in advance,

Is the methodology of LIGO gravitational waves (GW) discovery right?

1. LIGO did not observe directly the interference pattern which is computer simulation. 2. This simulation is based on the proposition that one beam is getting longer and other is getting shorter...

Does the energy of the photon change in Beth 1936 experiment?

When a left (right) polarized photon reflects from a birefringent plate it changes its polarization to right (left). The internal orbital momentum of the photon thus changes by 2hbar. The orbital...

Is there a relationship between the detector time-window and the width of the energy distribution of a particle?

What is the meaning of the uncertainty relation ΔE Δt ≥ ħ during the energy measurement of a particle? My understanding is that Δt should be the time-window of the detector. But I am not sure....
