Japanese and Canadian scientists received the 2015 Nobel Prize in Physics

Two scientists Takaaki Kajita from Tokyo University and Arthur B. McDonald of Queen's University, Canada were awarded the Nobel Prize in physics. This award is given to the research of two scientists who discovered that neutrino subatomic particles also have mass.

Neutrinos are the second largest subatomic particles in the universe , after light photons. The existence of this type of particle was discovered in 1930, but for decades it is still one of the mysteries of physics.

Dr. Kajita is one of the scientists who discovered the existence of mass in well-known particles as this mystery since 1998. Neutrinos are not charged and are very light, so scientists still thought they had no mass.

Our universe has a lot of neutrino subatomic particles left over from the Big Bang explosion and more in the solar fusion reactor, a small part appears in nuclear reactors on Earth. .

Two Kajita and McDonald scientists were awarded the Nobel Prize for physics with about $ 960,000. In the past, 199 scientists were awarded the Nobel Prize in physics, including genius physicists such as Albert Einstein, Niels Bohr and Marie Curie.
