Fermilab’s Tevatron collider to shut down this year

JAN 11, 2011
Physics Today
New Scientist : Last year, it looked as though Fermilab’s Tevatron collider would continue to hunt for the Higgs boson until 2014. An advisory panel had recommended the three-year extension in the wake of delays at CERN’s Large Hadron Collider. Yesterday, however, the US Department of Energy, which funds the Tevatron, announced that the extension would be cancelled. Unless new funding can be found, the Tevatron will cease operations later this year.
