Austria has announced that it will withdraw from CERN, Europe's premier high-energy physics laboratory, which is located near Geneva, Switzerland. The announcement — just months before the restart of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the world's most powerful particle accelerator — has left Austrian physicists stunned. "It is a black day for Austrian science," says Christian Fabjan, who heads the Institute for High Energy Physics at the Austrian Academy of Sciences in Vienna. (source: nature.com)
