Nobel Prize Honors Discovery of Distant Neutrinos
Original: Nobel Prize: Neutrinos from Far, Far Away
The 2015 Nobel Prize in Physics recognized the detection of neutrinos arriving from far beyond our solar system. The award went to Takaaki Kajita of Japan's Super-Kamiokande and Arthur McDonald of Canada's Sudbury Neutrino Observatory for showing that neutrinos have mass, a finding that changed the standard model of particle physics.
Why now: People are discussing how neutrinos detected from cosmic distances reshaped particle physics and earned the Nobel Prize.
