Biography
Rene Turlay was one of the four discoverers of charge-parity violation.
In 1957, he joined the CEA laboratory. His first work with the Saturne synchrotron concerned the study of pi meson production in nucleon-nucleon collisions at 2.3 GeV. After his doctoral thesis, he went to Princeton as a post-doc.
From 1962 to 1964 he played a major role in all phases of the memorable experiment at Brookhaven's accelerator where the CP violation phenomenon in weak interactions was discovered.
From the 1970s and until after he retired, Turlay worked regurlary at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva on a number of different projects.[1]
gollark: Also also, do you have some sort of modular cable bus interface for all of them, or just crazy wireless?
gollark: Also, I have no idea what kind of nice-looking materials would work nicely.
gollark: Both, I guess.
gollark: Wait, how is that a module?
gollark: Any ideas for making a cool nice-looking base? I want more space than my current towery design provides.
