James Watson Cronin was an American physicist born on September 29, 1931, in Chicago, Illinois. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1980 for his discovery of the violation of the CP symmetry principle in certain particle interactions, conducted in 1964 alongside his colleague Val Fitch. This groundbreaking research demonstrated that certain particle decays do not occur symmetrically over time. Cronin served as a research professor at the University of Chicago and was the spokesperson for the Pierre Auger Observatory until his death.
