President Sergio Mattarella told CERN
researchers they were accelerators themselves at a ceremony
marking the 70th anniversary of the creation of the nuclear
particle physic lab in Geneva Tuesday.
"To all of you at CERN, to the scientists who are a living part
of it, goes the most intense wish for an ever brilliant future,"
said the Italian head of State.
"You are accelerators yourselves.
"Accelerators of scientific progress, of research for a common
good that knows how to look beyond the narrow limits of local
interests, projected towards the recognition of a destiny shared
by humanity".
