Frederick Reines (/ ˈ r aɪ n ə s / RY-nəs; March 16, 1918 – August 26, 1998) was an American physicist. He was awarded the 1995 Nobel Prize in Physics for his co-detection of the neutrino with Clyde Cowan in the neutrino experiment .
The Nobel Prize in Physics 1995 was awarded "for pioneering experimental contributions to lepton physics" jointly with one half to Martin L. Perl "for the discovery of the tau lepton" and with one half to Frederick Reines "for the detection of the neutrino"
Frederick Reines was an American physicist who was awarded the 1995 Nobel Prize for Physics for his discovery 40 years earlier, together with his colleague Clyde L. Cowan, Jr., of the subatomic particle called the neutrino, a tiny lepton with little or no mass and a neutral charge.

Oct 15, 1998 · Rightly known as the father of neutrino physics, it is Reines, perhaps more than any other scientist, who is identified with the discovery of a fundamental particle and its subsequent...
Together with his colleague Clyde Cowan, Frederick Reines is responsible for detecting and proving the existence of the previously hypothesized neutrino. After discovering this elementary particle, Dr. Reines devoted the major part of his career to understanding the neutrino's properties and interactions.
Mar 16, 2017 · Born on 16 March 1918 in Paterson, New Jersey, Frederick Reines was a Nobel Prize–winning physicist who discovered the neutrino. The son of Russian immigrants, Reines earned his BS and MA at Stevens Institute of Technology in Hoboken, New Jersey, then his PhD in physics at New York University.
Frederick Reines was awarded the National Medal of Science for the experimental discovery of the free neutrino and the elucidation of its properties and interactions and the testing of fundamental conservation laws of physics.
