Observation of a new particle at LHC: Booklet / Journal issue
Not that I am promoting any buying of “derivatives” from the discovery of the Higgs boson but there is some interesting (free) images and free access to a PDF booklet, which includes the two published articles in Physics Letters B by ATLAS and CMS:
Worth a look 
The CERN LHC in 34 pictures
In the wake of this week Higgs discovery announcement, here is an amazing sets of 34 photographs of the LHC and the detector apparatus at CERN from The Atlantic: In Focus – The Fantastic Machine That Found the Higgs Boson – The Atlantic.
Simply fantastic!
Higgs boson observed…
As a physicist, it is difficult not to get excited. CERN has issued a Press Release in which it states that both experiments (ATLAS and CMS) has observed a signal consistent with a new boson in the 126 GeV mass range – right where the Higgs boson is expected. The strength of the signal is at the 5 sigma level (only 1 chance out of 1 744 278 to be consistent with only random fluctuation), which is considered a true positive for particle discovery
