October 08, 2013 15:26
In 2004, Drs. Higgs, Brout and Englert won the Wolf Prize, considered to be a forerunner of the Nobel.
In 2010, Drs. Higgs, Brout, Englert, Guralnik, Hagen and Kibble shared the Sakurai Prize of the American Physical Society, another important forerunner, and the first time that prize had been split six ways.
This year, the European Physical Society gave its high energy and particle physics prize to the Atlas and CMS collaborations, naming the founders of those experiments, Michel Della Negra, Peter Jenni and Tejinder Virdee.
