Belgian, British scientists share 2013 Nobel Prize in Physics

The 2013 Nobel Prize in Physics went to Francois Englert from Belgium and British scientist Peter Higgs, announced the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences in Stockholm on Tuesday.

The prize were awarded to the two scientists "for the theoretical discovery of a mechanism that contributes to our understanding of the origin of mass of subatomic particles, and which recently was confirmed through the discovery of the predicted fundamental particle, by the ATLAS and CMS experiments at CERN's Large Hadron Collider," said Staffan Normark, Permanent Secretary of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.
