In order to understand the behaviour of the Higgs particle under the presence of the Higgs field, it is necessary to understand the apparent duality between the two physical quantities in the presence of the Higgs particle. As such, we study the Higgs state and the state of Higgs matter in the presence of the Higgs field in an adiabatic quantum field theory. The central feature of the Higgs state and Higgs matter is that the Higgs particle is simultaneously considered as the observer and a particle. The latter is considered as an obstacle to the existence of a physical quantity. Furthermore, we find that in the absence of the Higgs particle, the Higgs state is a quantum state in which the Higgs field is not fully realized in the Higgs phase. As a result, the Higgs state does not necessarily involve the Higgs particle. However, the Higgs state is a quantum state in which the Higgs field is fully realized in the Higgs phase. The Higgs particle is also represented as an obstacle to the existence of a physical quantity. Finally, we discuss the physical quantities in the presence of the Higgs field in an adiabatic quantum field theory.
