Uncle Scrooge discovers particle physics
Sometimes it takes a simple idea to get science concepts into children’s minds. When the world was in lockdown and parents everywhere juggled home schooling their kids, getting their own work done and keeping everybody happy and healthy, scientist Luigi Marchese thought back to his own childhood and had an idea. Why not combine what he loved as a child – reading comic books, especially the Italian “Topolino” magazine featuring Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck and co – and what he does as an adult – doing particle physics at the CMS detector – to keep kids edutained?

Diana Aude Craik – physicienne quantique
Diana Craik nous emmène dans son laboratoire sur le campus ETH Hönggerberg. Pour l’instant, il n’y a qu’une table optique vide — mais bientôt, elle l’utilisera pour effectuer des mesures ultra-précises sur des atomes.

Prix Charles Haenny pour la physique
The Charles Haenny Prize for Physics distinguishes a young physicist for research performed in Switzerland in any field of physics. The nominated work should be of excellent scientific quality and internationally competitive, while also respectful of humanity and its environment. In the spirit of Prof. Charles Haenny’s will, the prize aims to distinguish research based on an ethic of international collaboration or seeking to inhibit the use of physical knowledge for malicious goals.
