A great day for particle physics
As many expected, the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to British scientist Peter Higgs and Belgian scientist François Englert for their work developing the theory that lead to the discovery of the Higgs-Boson. The awarding of this prize indirectly recognises the work of CERN and many ETH researchers.
