Bertram Brockhouse (left), a Professor at McMaster University, mentors a student in the application of neutron beams to study materials. Later, he would win the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1994.

Brockhouse and the Nobel Prize

Canadian Institute for Neutron Scattering

The 1994 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Bertram Brockhouse (Canada) and Clifford Shull (USA) who pioneered the use of neutron beams as tools for probing materials. The prize reflected the importance the scientific community places on these versatile and irreplaceable tools. Brockhouse’s methods have been replicated and further advanced at major neutron sources around the world. Today, neutron beams are in high demand by scientists and engineers globally for research. The following article

Bill Buyers Contributes to 2016 Nobel-Prize Winning Research

Canadian Institute for Neutron Scattering

The 2016 laureates for the Nobel Prize in Physics were three American theorists who made surprising predictions about how some materials could behave. After Canadian physicists, led by Bill Buyers, used neutron beams to experimentally confirm one of these predictions in 1985, the scientific world took notice of the theorists’ astounding claims. Since then, researchers began to classify materials based on these newfound behaviours, leading to more and more discoveries in so-called ‘topological

Churchill Rocket Range

The Black Brant Rocket

Churchill Northern Studies Centre

Today the Churchill Rocket Range looks out of date and abandoned. Although it may seem that way, this was not always the case. In the 1950’s, the International Geophysical Year (IGY) and the Cold War created a fascination for space exploration. The idea of setting up the IGY was accepted after Stalin’s death in 1953 because the Soviet Union had interrupted scientific communication between the East and West. These events led to great scientific collaborations. The interest and intrigue of the

How Did Humans Stumble Across Yogurt?

Jesse Rogerson, PhD

Canada Aviation and Space Museum

Yogurt is ubiquitous across most cultures (har har... science pun), and has an ancient origin. If you ever wondered what gives yogurt its taste, and how you could make it yourself .. check out this article from "Science & Food."

Scientists at CERN have Discovered a New Particle

Jesse Rogerson, PhD

Canada Aviation and Space Museum

Researchers at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) have discovered a new particle, called Xi-cc++. The name doesn't roll off the tongue very well, but the discovery will help understand how the nuclei of atoms hold themselves together. There are four fundamental forces in the Universe: the weak force, the strong force, the electromagnetic force, and the gravitational force. The strong force is responsible for holding the nucleus of an atom together; for example, a regular helium atom's nucleus has

Ingenious - Ingénieux

The coded voice of danger. The lower the frequency of a musical note, the farther that note can be heard. Simple physics. Robert Foulis grasped this fact for himself one foggy evening in his home of Saint John, New Brunswick, in 1853. Walking toward his house, he heard his daughter playing the piano. As the notes drifted on the night air, he noticed he could hear the lowest notes clearest. Well aware of the dangers of fog to shipping, Robert put his personal discovery to good use. Knowing that

Bird's Eye View

Churchill Northern Studies Centre

Bird’s Eye View It’s the golden hour of Churchill weather: the temperature is above zero every day, the sun is shining, but the mosquitoes have not yet poked their ugly proboscises out of the ponds. The conditions make it the ideal season for birdwatching, and both bird researchers and the Spring’s Wings Learning Vacation have taken full advantage of that opportunity, bringing their knowledge and observations to the CNSC. Among the species sighted was a parasitic jaeger, a piratical predatory

Thomas “Carbide” Wilson: Prolific Inventor and Father of Carbide

St. Catharines Museum

Thomas “Carbide” Wilson was born in 1860 to a struggling farming family in Princeton, Upper Canada. When Thomas was 14, his father died, and his mother worked hard teaching guitar and painting lessons to put her children through school. Lucky for her, Thomas would soon become a prolific inventor and forever change the history of industry. At the young age of 21, Thomas showed great intellectual promise by patenting electric arc lighting. As a result of his invention, in 1881, some shops and

Paul Santerre - 2017 Governor General’s Innovation Awards Winner

Governor General's Innovation Awards

Paul Santerre is a chemical engineer. He co-founded Interface Biologics Inc., a Toronto-based health technologies company. He invented Endexo tehchnology, a unique compound of surface-modifying macromolecules that are added to plastics during the manufacturing process of medical devices. The special coating helps reduce clotting when the devices are used to treat patients, reducing the risk of adverse reactions and potentially deadly complications. Now being used in commercialized products in
