CERN press release 04.07.2012
“We have reached a milestone in our understanding of nature” said CERN Director General Rolf Heuer “The discovery of a particle consistent with the Higgs boson opens the way to more detailed studies, requiring larger statistics, which will pin down the new particle’s properties, and is likely to shed light on other mysteries of our universe”
