 Paul Dirac published
numerous books in his
lifetime, many of which
are still seen today as
the standard bearer
texts in the field of
physics. His most
famous books are:
Quantum Theory of the
Electron (1928) The
principles of quantum
mechanics (1930).
Alan Guth is an
American theoretical
physicist and
cosmologist. Guth has
researched elementary
particle theory. He is
Victor Weisskopf
Professor of Physics in
the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology
Phoebus Aaron
Theodore Levene was
an American
biochemist who studied
the structure and
function of nucleic
acids. He characterized
the different forms of
nucleic acid, DNA from
RNA, and found that
DNA contained adenine,
guanine, thymine,
cytosine, deoxyribose,
and a phosphate group.
Sir James Chadwick, CH,
FRS was a British physicist
who was awarded the 1935
Nobel Prize in Physics for
his discovery of the neutron
in 1932. In 1941, he wrote
the final draft of the MAUD
Report, which inspired the
U.S. government to begin
serious atomic bomb
research efforts.
Prof Hugo Marie de Vries
FRS HFRSE was a Dutch
botanist and one of the first
geneticists. He is known
chiefly for suggesting the
concept of genes,
rediscovering the laws of
heredity in the 1890s while.
Mikhail Semyonovich Tsvet
was a Russian-Italian
botanist who invented
adsorption chromatography.
His last name is Russian for
both "colour" and "flowering.
"
Jaroslav Heyrovský was a
Czech chemist and inventor.
Heyrovský was the inventor
of the polarographic
method, father of the
electroanalytical method,
and recipient of the Nobel
Prize in 1959 for his
discovery and development
of the polarographic
methods of analysis. His
main field of work was
polarography.
Fritz Zwicky was a Swiss
astronomer. He worked
most of his life at the
California Institute of
Technology in the United
States of America, where
he made many important
contributions in theoretical
and observational
astronomy.
Murray Gell-Mann is an
American physicist who
received the 1969 Nobel
Prize in physics for his work
on the theory of elementary
particles.
Neil Bartlett (15 September
1932 – 5 August 2008) was
a chemist who specialized
in fluorine and compounds
containing fluorine, and
became famous for
creating the first noble gas
compounds. He taught
chemistry at the University
of British Columbia and the
University of California,
Berkeley.
