On Wednesday, physicists working on the Large Hadron Collider at CERN announced that they have finally found the Higgs boson — the particle thought to be behind the mass of all the others.
With this year’s Lindau conference focusing on Physics, for attendees this proved to be a momentous day and even Nobel Laureate David J. Gross revelled in the news:
In order to celebrate and discuss the findings, afternoon sessions included a press conference and a Panel Discussion with Nobel Laureates and John Ellis of CERN.
To capture the excitement and the live tweeting around these talks, we have created a Storify storyboard below.
