@zhang_tianrong Hello were you a student of my mom?

[chris @Chris_DeWitt]

@zhang_tianrong @YouTube If you were my mom’s student, I would like to contact you please.

@phalpern She used to invite my mom to spend holidays at her apt in Stockholm when they were both in Copenhagen.

@phalpern Herman Weyl unintentionally intruded on my parents’ first date - Spring Dance at the IAS in 1950.

@phalpern My dad’s favorite movies were Marx brothers’ movies - he could quote almost like for line.

@phalpern Higgs credited my dad’s invitation to UNC in his Nobel lecture.

@phalpern Cool. My mom spent some summers as a teenager before the war in England with a Quaker family to learn English … and got to meet Bertrand Russell through them. The English she acquired played an important role in her journey as a physicist.

@phalpern One of 3 physicists who met me as a 3 month old infant at my mom’s school in 1957 who went on to win the Nobel prize.

🔭 Encore 5 dates pour Prix No'Bell, qui libère une place dans l'histoire collective pour l'astrophysicienne Jocelyn Bell. Peu de temps, donc, pour se voir transmettre un récit juste, où les femmes scientifiques sont loin de n'être que subalternes.

⚗️ [Exil Intérieur] Il ne reste plus que 4 représentations du spectacle d'Élisabeth Bouchaud. Exil Intérieur rend justice à une figure oubliée, qui fut pourtant au centre d'une révolution scientifique qui changea nos vies : la physicienne Lise Meitner.

🔭 Avec Prix No’ Bell, Elisabeth Bouchaud poursuit sa série sur les femmes scientifiques oubliées en revenant cette fois-ci sur le destin de Jocelyn Bell : "toujours aussi réussie".@sceneweb

« Élisabeth Bouchaud trace un portrait remarquable d’une femme qui jamais ne lâcha prise ». L’article de @mc_niviere pour @loeildoliv, en plus de rendre compte de notre spectacle, plonge dans le système qui a invisibilisé Lise Meitner. Merci à elle !!!

@phalpern Feynman looks a little different to me here than in the photos I have of him from that conference, which my parents attended. The participants were also taken to see Auschwitz.

[Paul Halpern @phalpern]

Celebrating the 100th anniversary of the birth of pioneering theoretical physicist Bryce DeWitt.

One of the first to pursue the field of quantum gravity, he became a strong advocate of Hugh Everett's quantum interpretation, which he dubbed "Many Worlds."
