Screening of « François Englert, Rebel and Nobel » at CERN – 12 October

Join the audience on 12 October at 4.30 p.m. for the screening of the one-hour long Belgian film “François Englert, Rebel and Nobel” in CERN’s main auditorium. The film addresses the life of Englert, the Belgian theoretical physicist and Nobel prize laureate who, along with Robert Brout and, independently, Peter Higgs, theorised the Brout-Englert-Higgs mechanism in 1964.

The screening of the film (in French with English subtitles) will be followed by a discussion about the man and his work with the filmmakers and CERN physicists.
