2013 ICTP prize awarded to Dr. Yasaman Farzan
Our Invisibles colleague Yasaman Farzan, PI of the Iran node, has just been awarded the 2013 ICTP prize issued in honour of Marie Curie.
The prize recognises Professor Yasaman Farzan (Institute for Research in Fundamental Sciences, Tehran, Iran) for her theoretical contributions to the physics of neutrinos, including development of the unitarity triangle method to determine the CP-violating phase, identification of symmetries leading to particular values of the phase and the proposal to use polarisation measurements to obtain information about CP violation.
