Freeman John Dyson FRS (15 December 1923 – 28 February 2020) [1] was a British-American theoretical physicist and mathematician known for his works in quantum field theory, astrophysics, random matrices, mathematical formulation of quantum mechanics, condensed matter physics, nuclear physics, and engineering.
Freeman Dyson in 2005. Dyson's eternal intelligence (the Dyson Scenario) is a hypothetical concept, proposed by Freeman Dyson in 1979, by which an immortal society of intelligent beings in an open universe may escape the prospect of the heat death of the universe by performing an infinite number of computations (as defined below) though expending only a finite amount of energy.
The book is a collection of essays, prefaces, and book reviews concerning miscellaneous topics. Its title is taken from the title of an essay which originated as a November 1992 talk at a Cambridge, UK meeting of scientists and philosophers. Dyson dedicated his talk to the memory of Eric James, Baron James of Rusholme, who died in May 1992. [2]
New research suggests stars in the Milky Way give off infrared heat expected from Dyson spheres, which physicist Freeman Dyson theorized could be created by intelligent life.
Freeman Dyson has been the first to give an interpretation of this assymetrical line by taking into account the movement of the charge carriers "in and out" of the (microwave)penetration skin of the metalic sample. The original article by F. Dyson makes the hypothesis of free conductive charge carriers bearing spins and is "model dependant".

The author Freeman Dyson at the Long Now Seminar in San Francisco, California in 2005. Professor Dyson suggests that three rapidly advancing technologies, Solar Energy, Genetic Engineering and World-Wide Communication together have the potential to create a more equal distribution of the world's wealth.
