Chien-Shiung Wu’s trailblazing but largely forgotten achievement features in a recent profile of the influential physicist.

Pioneering female Chinese-American physicist Chien-Shiung Wu, who worked with Robert Oppenheimer on the Manhattan Project, was also the first to confirm quantum entanglement – just 14 years ...

Quantum jumps in atomic physics. Continuous transitions between ... The first work in this direction was the famous article by Born and Oppenheimer on the theory of molecules based on the ...

But Oppenheimer saw Einstein as kind of the old guard." Einstein once wrote that he didn't believe in quantum physics, which would become Oppenheimer's field of study. The younger scientist later ...

He emphasized the success of "Oppenheimer," a three-hour, R-rated movie delving into quantum physics, which astonishingly grossed a billion dollars. This achievement, Nolan believes, signals a ...

The American theoretical physicist J Robert Oppenheimer examines the impact of quantum and atomic theory on the way societies view themselves and others in six Reith lectures.

Oppenheimer's notable achievements in physics include the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, work on electron-positron theory, the Oppenheimer-Phillips process, quantum tunneling, special relativity ...
