Stephen William Hawking

(Stephen William Hawking, Oxford, UK, 1942) Theoretical physicist British. He studied mathematics and physics at University College Oxford, where he graduated in 1962. In 1966 his PhD at Trinity Hall Cambridge. In the early sixties had the first symptoms amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a degenerative disease neuromuscular has not impeded progress in its activity intellectualStephen Hawking His scientific interests are focused in the field of general relativity, in particularly in the physics of black holes. In 1971 he suggested training, after the big bang, of numerous objects, called "Micro black holes" which contain about one billion metric tons of mass, but occupy only the space of a proton, circumstances which would result in enormous gravitational fields, governed by the laws of relativity. Proposed in 1974, according to the predictions of quantum physics, that black holes emit subatomic particles to deplete your energy and finally explode. That same year he was elected the Royal Society, three years later was appointed professor of physics gravitational Cambridge, where two years later became professor Lucasian mathematics, the same he held Isaac Newton
