MAY 19, 2009
Physics Today
Reuters : Austria has changed its mind and will now not pull out of the international particle physics laboratory CERN over the cost, Chancellor Werner Faymann said in a statement on Monday, overruling his science minister.

“Austria has been a member of CERN for over 50 years -- a whole host of Austrian scientists are linked to CERN and will continue to do so in the future,” Faymann, a social democrat, said at a news conference with Science Minister Johannes Hahn.
