Among her important contributions to physics, Wu was the first to confirm the theory of beta decay proposed by Enrico Fermi in 1933 about how radioactive atoms become more stable and less radioactive.Wu with Samuel Chao Chung Ting, American physicist and Nobel Prize winner To get accurate resul...
1 . Mario Capecchi (medicine, 2007) was an abandoned child on the streets of wartime Italy. 2 . Five of Enrico Fermi’s (physics, 1938) postdoctoral students went on to win the Nobel Prize. Otto Warburg (medicine, 1931) advised an American doctoral student, “If you wish to become a ...
ATOMIC PHYSICIST Enrico Fermi He was the last of the double-threat physicists:a genius at creating both esoteric theories and elegant experiments. He co-invented and designes the first man-made nuclear reactor and bridged the gap between theory and experiment.原子物理学家——安里柯·费米(1901-...

nucleosynthesiswas first worked out in 1937 by German physicist Hans Bethe, who would later play a key role in the Manhattan Project, the wartime effort to develop the first atomic bomb. However, it was one of Bethe’s colleagues, Italian physicist Enrico Fermi, who first proposed in ...
Despite being instrumental in the development of the atomic bomb, certain episodes in his youth put the FBI's spotlight on him for his communist sympathies. Nothing could ever be proved against him. PresidentKennedypresented him with the Enrico Fermi Award, a political move to restore his image...
After the war ended, he returned to the University of Chicago, where he completed his graduate work under Enrico Fermi. Agnew returned to Los Alamos in 1949, and worked on the Castle Bravo nuclear test at Bikini Atoll in 1954. He became head of the Weapon Nuclear Engineering Division in ...
Foreseeing another war in Europe, Szilard moved to the United States in 1938, where he worked with Enrico Fermi and Walter Zinn on means of creating a nuclear chain reaction. He was present when this was achieved within the Chicago Pile-1 on December 2, 1942. He worked for the Manhattan...
Indeed, he was a fundamental figure not only in... D Szász - 《Mathematical Intelligencer》 被引量: 5发表: 2011年 Enrico Fermi: The Obedient Genius This biography explores the life and career of the Italian physicist Enrico Fermi, which is also the story of thirty years that transformed ...
According to Goodchild, Nobel laureate Enrico Fermi feared that Teller might be close to suicide in 1954 after the backlash to his testimony. Teller's support for the SDI occupies a few chapters, which often lean heavily on the writings of journalist William Broad. Some of Goodchild's ...
