Professor Peter Higgs said first learned he won a Nobel Physics Prize when a former neighbour told him on the street. "She congratulated me on the news and I said 'oh, what news?" he said at a press conference at the University of Edinburgh.
The 84-year-old scientist was among several physicists in the 1960's who discovered the Higgs Boson- a theory that explains how particles clump together to form stars, planets and life itself. Report by Sarah Kerr.
