October: It has been a whirlwind few months for Professor Emeritus Art McDonald. Following the Oct. 6 announcement of the Nobel Prize for Physics, the world카지노 게임 컬렉션™s attention focused on Dr. McDonald and his co-winner, Dr. Takaaki Kajita of the 카지노게임사이트 of Tokyo.

October & November: Over the next weeks and months, Dr. McDonald카지노 게임 컬렉션™s work was covered by media around the world, from The New York Times to The Indian Awaaz.

Dr. McDonald also showed his lighter side in , during which he patiently demonstrated the notion of a neutrino changing flavours using an iconic Canadian donut, the Timbit.

In November, Dr. McDonald and the SNO Collaboration received another major award: the 2016 Breakthrough Prize in Fundamental Physics. The SNO Collaboration shared the $3-million prize with four other international experimental collaborations studying neutrino oscillations: the Superkamiokande, Kamland, T2K/K2K and Daya Bay scientific collaborations.
