Georg Joos ( 25.05. 1894 - 20.05.1959); full professor for experimental physics at Technical University of Munich. Georg Jakob Christof Joos (25 May 1894 in Bad Urach, German Empire – 20 May 1959 in Munich, West Germany) was a German experimental physicist.
Georg Robert Döpel (3 December 1895 – 2 December 1982), best known as Robert Döpel, was a German nuclear physicist and a professor of physics at the Technical University of Ilmenau in Germany. An early participant of the German program, the Uranprojkt , in 1939, Döpel was taken in the Soviet custody and was held in Russia after the World ...
The following is a partial list of notable theoretical physicists. Arranged by century of birth, then century of death, then year of birth, then year of death, then alphabetically by surname. For explanation of symbols, see Notes at end of this article.
Hans H. Joos (31 December 1926, Stuttgart [1] – 18 November 2010, Hamburg) was a German theoretical physicist. [2] He is known for the Joos–Weinberg equation , [ 3 ] independently published by Steven Weinberg .
The deutsche Physik movement was anti-Semitic and anti-theoretical physics. As applied in the university environment, political factors took priority over the historically applied concept of scholarly ability, [ 5 ] even though its two most prominent supporters were the Nobel Laureates in Physics Philipp Lenard [ 6 ] and Johannes Stark . [ 7 ]
For example, Georg Joos reprised Miller's experiment using a very similar setup (the arms of his interferometer were 21 m vs. the 32 m in the Miller experiment) and obtained results that were 1/50 the magnitude of those from Miller's (see Michelson–Morley experiment#Subsequent experiments).

Theoretical physics is a branch of physics that employs mathematical models and abstractions of physical objects and systems to rationalize, explain, and predict natural phenomena. This is in contrast to experimental physics , which uses experimental tools to probe these phenomena.
