Physics show at Manzoni theatre in Pistoia

The latest stage of "HIGGS ON TOUR" and "What I do not know", a two conference-show organised by the INFN as part of the celebrations for the 60th anniversary of CERN, took place on Saturday, 15 February at the Teatro Manzoni in Pistoia (Tuscany - Italy). These sold-out events included, on stage, a dialogue with eminent researchers moderated by the well-known television presenter Patrizio Roversi, live video-conferencing with the CMS experimental hall and the ATLAS control room at CERN, and movies and performances by the bubble-artist Marco Zoppi.

A guided tour for students and the general public of the discovery of the Higgs particle and the still open questions which scientists hope to answer in the near future.
