Let's make this birthday one to remember.

86 years old (Born on March 30, 1939)

Happy Birthday to the brilliant Ratko Janev! Your atomic insights have always been positively charged, and your membership in the Macedonian Academy of Sciences and Arts proves you're truly an element worth celebrating. Who else could make particle collisions sound like a fun weekend hobby?

Winning that prestigious Research Award from the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation back in 2004 was just another electron orbiting around your nucleus of achievements. May this birthday bring you as much joy as discovering new isotopes—and may all future experiments yield cake instead of data errors!

Cheers to many more years filled with laughter, success, and physics puns!
