Steinberger immigrated to the United States in 1934.
He was a professor of physics at Columbia University, New York City, from 1950 to 1971, and from 1968 he was a physicist at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) in Geneva, Switz.
In the early 1960s Steinberger, along with his Columbia University colleagues Lederman and Schwartz, devised a landmark experiment in particle physics using the accelerator at the Brookhaven National Laboratory, N.Y. The three reseachers obtained the first laboratory-made stream of neutrinos--subatomic particles that have no electric charge and virtually no mass.

 Heidi Toft's 70 Minutes with Jack Steinberger, a physics Nobel Prize Winner
Jack Steinberger is one of the three nobel prize winners in physics of 1988, for their discovering the particle muon neutrino in 1961-62.
Jack was at the time 78 years old and had stayed at CERN, in different positions, for 31 years in total.
As it of course was necessary for Jack to have an intens focus on his own tiny particle physics area for so many years in order to be good enough, he then had correspondingly less time to do other stuff.

In the early 1960s, Steinberger and co-researchers, Leon Lederman and Melvin Schwartz, discovered a new type of neutrino, which is a particle with no detectable electric charge or mass that moves at the speed of light.
This led to the development of a new scheme for classifying families of subatomic particles.

 CERN Courier - Summer Bookshelf - IOP Publishing - article
Our guide is Jack Steinberger, undoubtedly one of the protagonists of those years, who offers a personal account of the historical and scientific evolution of the field, interspersed with autobiographical notes.
As for inside stories, Steinberger confesses that initially he did not believe in neutral currents and this (quite rightly!) cost him a few bottles of good wine.
Here Steinberger enumerates the spectacular accomplishments of the Standard Model within the context of the LEP experiments, perhaps with a tinge of nostalgia for earlier times.

 Melvin Schwartz - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Melvin Schwartz (born November 2, 1932) is an American physicist.
He shared the 1988 Nobel Prize in Physics with Leon Max Lederman and Jack Steinberger for their development of the neutrino beam method and their demonstration of the doublet structure of the leptons through the discovery of the muon neutrino.
He grew up in New York City in the Great Depression and went to the Bronx High School of Science.

 19 Oct Nobel History
Jack Steinberger, who is an American citizen works since long ago as a Senior Physicist at CERN, Geneva, Switzerland, where he has led a number of large experiments in elementary particle physics, including experiments that employ neutrino beams.
During the next two years he, together with Leon Lederman and Jack Steinberger, worked on the proposal in order to achieve a sufficiently intense beam of neutrinos free from all other types of particle, and to design a detector for measuring neutrino reactions.
The measurement results, to which Jack Steinberger and Bruno Pontecorvo among others contributed, disagreed with accepted theoretical calculations.

 Discovery of the Muon Neutrino
BNL's next Nobel Prize was awarded in 1988, when a trio of researchers received the physics prize for their 1962 discovery of the muon-neutrino.
Leon Lederman, Melvin Schwartz and Jack Steinberger, at the time all of Columbia University, made their discovery at the brand-new Alternating Gradient Synchrotron (AGS).
At the time, only the electron-neutrino was known, and the scientists wondered if they could find more types of these ghostlike particles that pass through everything.
