Oktober 1914 in Washington, D.C.; † 31. Mai 2006 in Blue Point, New York) war ein US-amerikanischer Chemiker und Physiker, der 2002 mit dem Nobelpreis für Physik „für bahnbrechende Arbeiten in der Astrophysik, insbesondere für den Nachweis kosmischer Neutrinos “ ausgezeichnet wurde.
Raymond Davis Jr. (October 14, 1914 – May 31, 2006) was an American chemist and physicist. He is best known as the leader of the Homestake experiment in the 1960s-1980s, which was the first experiment to detect neutrinos emitted from the Sun; for this he shared the 2002 Nobel Prize in Physics .
27. Mai 2024 · Raymond Davis, Jr. (born October 14, 1914, Washington, D.C., U.S.—died May 31, 2006, Blue Point, New York) was an American physicist who, with Koshiba Masatoshi, won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 2002 for detecting neutrino s. Riccardo Giacconi also won a share of the award for his work on X-rays.

Prize share: 1/2. The Nobel Prize in Physics 2002 was divided, one half jointly to Raymond Davis Jr. and Masatoshi Koshiba "for pioneering contributions to astrophysics, in particular for the detection of cosmic neutrinos" and the other half to Riccardo Giacconi "for pioneering contributions to astrophysics, which have led to the discovery of ...

Neutrino astronomy, the observation of neutrinos from extraterrestrial sources, began in 1966, when Raymond Davis, Jr. turned on his deep-underground chlorine-based neutrino detector. Over the next three decades, the lower-than-predicted solar neutrino flux that Davis observed confused the scientific community.
Raymond Davis Jr., a chemist at Brookhaven National Laboratory, won the 2002 Nobel Prize in Physics for detecting solar neutrinos, ghostlike particles produced in the nuclear reactions that power the sun. Davis shared the prize with Masatoshi Koshiba of Japan, and Riccardo Giacconi of the U.S.
