Looks like the scientist who discovered neutrino oscillations is Bruno Pontecorvo and his life story is quite interesting. Here's what he had to say about the Soviet Union in 1992: Now, for the first time, he is prepared to talk about the choice he made. But, with most Communist countries having changed their colours, how does he feel about the dedication of his life to the Communist cause? 'The simple explanation is this: I was a cretin,' he said. 'The fact that I could be so stupid, and many people close to me should have been quite so stupid . . .' The sentence was left unfinished. Communism, he went on, was 'like a religion, a revealed religion . . . with myths or rites to explain it. It was the absolute absence of logic.' He stuck by his faith, even after the invasion of Hungary in 1956. When Andrei Sakharov, a fellow physicist, turned against the system, it made no difference. 'I had always admired him as a great scientist and a man of integrity. However, my idea was that he was naive . . . it was I who was naive.' https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/confessions-of-an-atom-spy-forty-years-after-bruno-pontecorvo-a-british-scientist-went-to-work-for-moscow-he-tells-charles-richards-in-rome-why-he-changed-sides-1537646.html https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/confessions-of-an-a...
