"but young, talented people did. That is why I am here." "No one knew if IceCube would be big enough to find neutrinos," says Halzen himself during the announcement. #IceCube (translated)

"Everyone was telling me that mine was a good idea, but that success was by no means guaranteed." The neutrino man won the Nobel Prize in Physics 2026: his name is Francis Halzen, he is Belgian, he is a professor in the USA, at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, and – he declared yesterday in his first interview – he feels like the protagonist of a great adventure: "Everyone was telling me that mine was a good idea, but that success was by no means guaranteed." #PremioNobel #Neutrini #Fisica (translated)

"The main pleasure, apart from winning the Nobel Prize, is that it hopefully reflects the merits of those truly brave people who joined me at the beginning of this project," Halzen also noted that some of his friends talk about how observing neutrinos could be a way to potentially communicate with other distant civilizations in the universe. #NobelovaCena #Astrofyzika #Neutrina (translated)

Therefore, Francis Halzen, a professor at the University of Wisconsin–Madison in the USA, is eager to highlight those who have collaborated with him, something he says that "no respectable" physicist wanted to do when he began and it was unclear where the research would lead. #Nobelpris #Fysik #FrancisHalzen (translated)

"We were fortunate to be able to overcome the various challenges - partly through cooperation, partly through luck." Halzen suggested in 1988 that by using the ice at the South Pole, they could observe the rarer high-energy neutrinos, which would require a cubic kilometer of detectors. #NobelDíj #neutrínók #fizika (translated)
