A "Higgs factory" refers to a type of particle accelerator designed specifically to produce and study Higgs bosons in significant quantities. The Higgs boson, discovered at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in 2012, is a fundamental particle associated with the Higgs field, which gives mass to other particles through the Higgs mechanism. Higgs factories typically aim to operate at an energy level close to the Higgs boson mass (approximately 125 GeV).
