"Rolf Heuer, Director General of CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research), answers a journalist's questions Wednesday about the scientific seminar to deliver the latest update in the search for the Higgs boson at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Meyrin near Geneva, Switzerland. The head of the world's biggest atom smasher is claiming discovery of a new particle that he says is consistent with the long-sought Higgs boson known popularly as the ""God particle."" Rolf Heuer, director of the European Center for Nuclear Research, or CERN, says ""we have a discovery"" of a new subatomic particle, a boson, that is ""consistent with a Higgs boson."" He spoke after two independent teams at CERN said they have both ""observed"" a new boson that looks just like the one believed to give all matter in the universe size and shape.
