Congratulations to TRIUMF for this important investment.

It is with great sadness that we learned of the passing of Peter Higgs.

An iconic figure in modern science, Higgs postulated the existence of the eponymous Higgs boson in 1964. Its discovery at CERN in 2012 was the crowning achievement of the Standard Model of particle physics –…
