Autor

Kazuhiko Nishijima (1926 - 2009) was a Japanese physicist who made significant contributions to particle physics. Until his death in 2009 he was Professor Emeritus at the University of Tokyo and Kyoto University. He is most well-known for his work on the Gell-Mann-Nishijima formula, and the concept of strangeness. He was nominated for the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1960 and 1961. Prof. Masud Chaichian and Dr. Anca Tureanu are physicists at University of Helsinki. They were close collaborators of Prof. Nishijima. Yuki Sato is Associate Professor at National Institute of Technology, Tokuyama College and visiting faculty member at Nagoya University.
