Editor’s note: It states in this article that Austria will withdraw from CERN because of budgetary pressures. This came from Austria’s Minister of Science and Research Johannes Hahn, but the exit was overruled shortly after by Chancellor Werner Faymann. So Austria remains involved with the LHC project.
We are grateful to Professor Fabjan, Director of the Institute of High Energy Physics at the Austrian Academy of Sciences, and other enthusiastic readers for pointing this out.
