Klein and Gordon are not really forgotten. Klein Gordon equation is in general taught before Dirac equation (it describes after all the dynamics of the Higgs boson) :)
there is a quite a probability for example that in a century or so, everyone will know about Higgs, yet many will have forgotten Englert and Brout...
For this reason, strictly speaking we must discuss the Higgs boson but the Brout-Englert-Higgs mechanism. Many of us are trying to stick to that in order to have justice for everyone.
For the specialist maybe, but I believe the profane knows the name of Dirac, yet Klein and Gordon might not be so recognized (for example, I didn't know them, I thought Dirac had done all the work).
Yet, I agree with you, recognition should be fairly spread out. I will attempt to mention more often the names of Englert and Brout when the Higgs Boson invites itself in my posts...
I will not change the name of my cat though. Her name is Higgsy ;-)
You thus want a clean Higgs :D
She also is very sociable, and interacts a lot with any human visiting me. Then, it requires a stronger effort from their part to leave. it's like if my cat was giving them extra mass...
Hey, maybe she's the extra Higgs Boson they are looking for at CERN, hiding in my sink, so not to be found
:-)
Higgs cascades! (the topic of one of my latest article, where heavy Higgses can be produced and then decays into lighter Higgses that themselves decay into the Standard Model Higgs) ^^
