\"Leon<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

He graduated in Chemistry from New York University in 1943 and received his PhD in Physics from Columbia University in 1951.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1958 he began teaching at Columbia University and directed its Physics Research Laboratory from 1961 to 1978. In 1960, on leave from Columbia, he spent time at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva as a Ford Foundation Fellow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

His scientific research focused, together with Melvin Schwartz<\/a> and Jack Steinberger<\/a>, on a method of detecting neutrinos that made it possible to demonstrate the double structure of leptons<\/a>. This discovery enabled theorists to devise a scheme, known as the standard model, for the classification of all elementary particles<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

From 1979 to 1989 he headed the government research laboratory, Fermi National Laboratory (Fermilab) in the United States. During his tenure, in 1977, a group of physicists, the \u2018E288 Experimental\u2019 team, led by Lederman, announced that the Fermilab particle accelerator was producing a particle with a mass of about 6.0 GeV. After getting more data, the group discovered that this particle did not actually exist, and the \u2018discovery\u2019 was called \u2018Oops-Leon\u2019 as a pun on the original name and Lederman's first name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As director of Fermilab, he was a leading advocate of the \u2018Superconducting Super Collider\u2019 project, among many others, and oversaw the construction of the Tevatron, for decades the world's highest energy particle collider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1988, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics, together with Schartz and Steinberger, for their work on the neutrino.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
