How is the Higgs Boson produced? The most prominent process used at the Large hadron collider is the gluon fusion process. First, two high energy gluons can be produced by smashing two high energy protons. These can, in some cases, turn into top quarks, and fuse together via a triangle loop.
This loop represents top quark, and anti-top quark creation and annihilation. The energy of this annihilation can create a Higgs boson.
