His story is a remarkable one and the contributions he made to the field in terms of its scientific richness and to the development of ever more powerful detector systems, were unique. The enthusiasm and excitement he put into everything were infectious and the brilliance of his insights was compelling. His legacy will live on, not only in the significant discoveries that he made, but also in the way he instilled his deep commitment to unravelling nature’s secrets in this quest and the pleasure of physics discovery with his close collaborators. This review article summarises his career and highlights some of his scientific achievements in which the authors had the privilege to collaborate with him.
