Helen Rhoda Arnold Quinn (born 19 May 1943) is an Australian-born particle physicist and educator who has made major contributions to both fields. Her contributions to theoretical physics include the Peccei–Quinn theory which implies a corresponding symmetry of nature [2] [3] (related to matter-antimatter symmetry and the possible source of the dark matter that pervades the universe) and ...
