Higgs Boson in the CERN Cafeteria

The folks at PHD Comics interviewed particle physicist Daniel Whiteson at CERN about the Higgs Boson and how it will be 'found'. The audio of the interview takes place in the cafeteria with all the background noises with it. The cartoonist is Jorge Cham. The video was included on the Astronomy Picture of the Day for May 1.

The duration is about 7 minutes. If you are looking for insight about the Higgs search, this is 7 minutes well spent. If you like cartoons integrated creatively into a storyline, this is 7 minutes well spent.

Either way, I found myself captivated by the story telling. It is fluent and insightful. The cartooning adds interesting and valuable content. Enjoy.
