On November 9, 2015 (September 28, 2015 in the lunar calendar),"Science Madman" Wang Yifang won the "Breakthrough Award in Basic Physics". The "Breakthrough Award" award ceremony was held in San Jose, California, USA. Wang Yifang received the award for the location of the Daya Bay Neutrino Experiment Project. In 2011, Wang Yifang checked the equipment installation situation at the Daya Bay Neutrino Experiment Station. On the morning of November 9, 2015, Beijing time, 2016 The "Scientific Breakthrough Award" award ceremony was held in San Jose, California, USA. As currently the world's highest-awarded scientific award, the "Life Science Breakthrough Award", known as the "first prize" in the scientific community, has announced its new winners: China scientist Wang Yifang won the award as the chief scientist of the Daya Bay Neutrino Project."Basic Physics Breakthrough Award"-this is also the first time that China scientists have won this award. Two other Chinese scientists, Fu Liang and Qi Xiaoliang, won the "New Vision Award in Physics". About Wang Yifang Wang Yifang, male, researcher, doctoral supervisor. Graduated from the Department of Physics of Nanjing University in 1984 and is currently the director of the Institute of High Energy Physics, China Academy of Sciences. In 1984, he obtained a bachelor's degree in atomic and nuclear physics from the Department of Physics of Nanjing University. In the same year, he was selected by Professor Ding Zhaozhong to pursue further studies in the L3 experiment led by him. Received a doctorate from the University of Florence, Italy in 1992. From September 1991 to June 1992, he served as ResearchStaff at the Italian National Institute of Nuclear Physics. From June 1992 to March 1996, he served as ResearchStaff(researcher) at the Nuclear Physics Laboratory of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. From April 1996 to February 2001, he served as ResearchAssociate in the Department of Physics at Stanford University in the United States. In 2000, he was selected into the "Hundred Talents Program" of China Academy of Sciences and returned to China in February 2001. It has nothing to do with nuclear power and will never pollute Wang Yifang said that neutrinos have long been a cutting-edge topic in physics, and there are a large number of unsolved mysteries. Studying it will be of great help in clarifying the origin and evolution of the universe. This time they plan to build a neutrino laboratory in Kaiping, which is to try to uncover the issues of how light neutrinos are and whether neutrinos and antineutrinos are the same type of particle, in order to achieve greater scientific results and realize the leapfrog development of neutrino physics in China. Some people in the private sector are worried: This project specializes in studying neutrinos in nuclear power plants and "pulling" with nuclear power plants. Will it affect the local ecology and pollute the environment? At the media conference that day, Wang Yifang emphasized: "Our projects have nothing to do with the Taishan and Yangjiang nuclear power plants, and there is no pollution. Wang Yifang pointed out that their laboratory will not produce any waste liquid and waste gas because it is built in a basement 700 meters deep and has only a small amount of supporting equipment on the ground and will not have any impact on the ground. At the same time, the detector is installed in a special pool and will not pollute groundwater. Wang Yifang said: "To take 10,000 steps back, even if there is an unfortunate leak in the laboratory, there will be no problem, because the raw materials of our equipment are mainly alkylbenzene and purified water, which are themselves clean and not pollutants. "Neutrino Super" Nobel "-About the" Life Sciences Breakthrough Award "The" Life Sciences Breakthrough Award Foundation "is a non-profit organization that focuses on promoting breakthrough research in the life sciences, commending outstanding scientists and inspiring people to pursue science. A passion for a lifelong career. It currently has established awards such as the "Life Sciences Breakthrough Award","Basic Physics Breakthrough Award","Mathematical Breakthrough Award", and "New Vision Award" to reward scientists who have made important achievements in the fields of life sciences, basic sciences, etc., and provide them with more freedom and opportunities to help them achieve greater achievements. The award was launched in February 2013, and the first winners each received a prize of US$3 million. The award is therefore known as the "ultra-luxury Nobel Prize"(the 2012 prize value was US$1.13 million). In September 2013, Alibaba Group founder Jack Ma and his wife officially joined the foundation as donors, and Jack Ma also served as a director of the foundation. It is understood that Ma Yun and his wife will donate US$3 million to the Life Sciences Breakthrough Award Fund every year. Before Jack Ma joined, the fund's donors only included: Russia's Yuri Milner (founder of DSTGlobal), Russia's Sergey Brin (co-founder of Google) and Mark Zuckerberg (co-founder of Facebook) couple in the United States.
