A top physicist says the construction of a "factory" to produce Higgs boson particles is a priority for the science community.
In an exclusive interview, Nigel Lockyer, head of America's premier particle physics lab, said studying the Higgs could hasten major discoveries.
He said momentum in the physics community was gathering for a machine to be built either in Europe or Asia.
"Our field uniformly agrees that would be a good thing," he told the BBC.
The Fermilab director added: "The Higgs is such an interesting particle - a unique particle."
