Sonia Francoual, heavy fermion explorer
The world of Sonia Francoual grew exponentially larger when she was a 14-year-old student in science class. First, she learned how electrons spin around an atom’s nucleus like wondrous tiny planets. Then she learned how famed scientist Marie Curie explored the uncharted territory of radioactive elements. These lessons launched Francoual on a lifetime of research on the edge of known quantum physics.
