The article discusses planned research regarding the Higgs boson particle by scientists in the U.S. and Europe. It focuses on the expected closure of the Tevatron particle collider at the U.S. Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (Fermilab) to explore whether or not experience trumps technology when it comes to scientific research. Other topics include a description of the European Organization for Nuclear Research's (CERN) Large Hadron Collider and an explanation of Higgs boson research.
