Les meilleurs jeunes physiciens de Suisse
28 jeunes ont participé le week-end dernier à la finale nationale des Olympiades suisses de physique à Aarau. Cinq d'entre eux ont été récompensés par des médailles d'or. Contrairement aux années précédentes, les gagnants ne participeront pas aux Olympiades internationales de physique - d'autres aventures les attendent:

Esperimento sui neutrini torna in vita
Buone notizie dal progetto di esperimento sui neutrini "T2K" in Giappone: ha ripreso a raccogliere dati alla fine dell'anno scorso dopo un ampio aggiornamento del fascio di neutrini e del rivelatore vicino. Il rivelatore vicino è saldamente nelle mani degli istituti svizzeri - l'Università di Ginevra e l'ETH Zurigo. Federico Sánchez dell'Università di Ginevra fornisce un aggiornamento su ciò che è successo e su cosa possiamo aspettarci.
