http://physicsweb.org/article/news/10/8/19
Melvyn Schwartz, who shared the 1988 Nobel Prize for Physics, died on
Monday at the age of 73. He shared the prize with Leon Lederman and Jack
Steinberger for developing a way to generate beams of neutrinos. Their
work, which took place at the Brookhaven National Laboratory in the US
in the early 1960s, also showed that neutrinos can exist in more than
one type or "flavour".
