It was with much sadness that friends, colleagues and admirers of Cadatur Badrinathan, known to all as Badri, received the news of his passing away on 11 April 2018 in Navi Mumbai. Badri, who was born in Salem, Tamil Nadu, on 20 September 1930, did his Master’s in Physics from the University of Rajasthan in Jaipur before joining Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR), Mumbai on 23 November 1955. His early work was with E. Kondiah and was based largely around the 1 MV Cockroft– Walton cascade generator accelerator at the Institute. It was during this time that Badri completed his doctoral degree that involved extensive experimental studies of transfer reactions using deuterons and 14 MeV neutrons.
