Thomas Korff Gaisser (March 12, 1940, Evansville, Indiana – February 20, 2022, Swarthmore, Pennsylvania) [1] was a particle physicist, cosmic ray researcher, and a pioneer of astroparticle physics. [2] He is known for his book Cosmic Rays and Particle Physics [3] and the Gaisser–Hillas function. [4]
The following is a list of notable unsolved problems grouped into broad areas of physics. [1]Some of the major unsolved problems in physics are theoretical, meaning that existing theories seem incapable of explaining a certain observed phenomenon or experimental result.
When the frequency of the sound field approaches the natural frequency of the bubble, it will result in large amplitude oscillations. The Keller–Miksis equation takes into account the viscosity, surface tension, incident sound wave, and acoustic radiation coming from the bubble, which was previously unaccounted for in Lauterborn's calculations.
Michael Carl Ruhlman (born July 28, 1963) is an American author, home cook and entrepreneur. [1] [2] [3] He has written or co-authored more than two dozen books, including non-fiction, fiction, memoir, and books on cooking. He has co-authored many books with American chefs, such as Thomas Keller, Eric Ripert, Michael Symon and Jean-Georges ...
Evelyn Fox Keller (March 20, 1936 – September 22, 2023) was an American physicist, author, [3] and feminist. She was Professor Emerita of History and Philosophy of Science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. [4] Keller's early work concentrated at the intersection of physics and biology. [5]
Edward Teller (Hungarian: Teller Ede; January 15, 1908 – September 9, 2003) was a Hungarian-American theoretical physicist and chemical engineer who is known colloquially as "the father of the hydrogen bomb" and one of the creators of the Teller–Ulam design based on Stanisław Ulam's design.
Carroll has worked on a number of areas of theoretical cosmology, field theory and gravitation theory. His research papers include models of, and experimental constraints on, violations of Lorentz invariance; the appearance of closed timelike curves in general relativity; varieties of topological defects in field theory; and cosmological dynamics of extra spacetime dimensions.
[7] [8] In 2019 he became the Chancellor’s Distinguished Professor of Physics at UC San Diego, [7] [9] in the Center for Astrophysics & Space Sciences, [10] which is part of the Department of Physics. [11] Keating received an Excellence in Stewardship Award in 2018/19, and is an honorary member of the National Society of Black Physicists. [12]
