    Antonino Zichichi, world-renowned physicist, passed away today at the age of 96. Originally from Trapani, his name is linked to historic discoveries—such as the antideuteron and the production of pairs of heavy mesons with positive and negative strangeness—as well as important inventions like  NINO and superNINO, electronic devices for measuring the flight times of subnuclear…
