Nobel Prize in Physics awarded to neutrino 'ghost particle' scientist

Original: Nobel Prize in Physics awarded to ‘ghost particle’ scientist

The Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to a scientist working on neutrinos, the nearly massless particles known as 'ghost particles' because they pass through matter almost undetectably. The award honors work that transformed understanding of these elusive particles, long considered among the hardest in physics to study. Commentators are highlighting how discoveries about neutrino properties reshaped theories of particle physics and the universe.

Why now: The announcement of a Nobel Prize in Physics is a major global science story drawing widespread attention.
