＞June 15, 2013, The world lost Nobel Prize-winning physicist Kenneth G. Wilson, whose groundbreaking work transformed our understanding of nature at its most fundamental level.
His ideas reshaped modern physics and continue to influence science today. 🧵👇

By the 1960s, physicists faced a major challenge: understanding what happens when materials undergo phase transitions, such as water boiling into steam or magnets losing their magnetism.
Existing theories could not fully explain the observed behavior.
Wilson's breakthrough came through the development of the Renormalization Group.
He showed how the behavior of physical systems changes across different length scales, connecting microscopic interactions with large-scale phenomena.

Wilson's methods revolutionized not only condensed matter physics but also quantum field theory and particle physics.
Today, the renormalization group remains an essential tool across many branches of science.
For these pioneering contributions, Wilson was awarded the 1982 Nobel Prize in Physics "for his theory for critical phenomena in connection with phase transitions."
His work is considered one of the great achievements of twentieth-century physics.

He recognized that advanced computing would become indispensable for solving some of physics' most challenging problems.
Kenneth G. Wilson passed away on 15 June 2013 at the age of 77.
His legacy lives on in every field that studies complex systems, from condensed matter and particle physics to modern computational science.

His ideas reshaped modern physics and continue to influence science today. 🧵👇
Born on 8 June 1936 in Massachusetts, Wilson developed an early passion for mathematics and physics. He went on to study at Harvard University and earned his PhD at Caltech under renowned physicist Murray Gell-Mann.
By the 1960s, physicists faced a major challenge: understanding what happens when materials undergo phase transitions, such as water boiling into steam or magnets losing their magnetism.
Existing theories could not fully explain the observed behavior.
Wilson's breakthrough came through the development of the Renormalization Group.
He showed how the behavior of physical systems changes across different length scales, connecting microscopic interactions with large-scale phenomena.
His work explained why very different systems can display remarkably similar behavior near critical points.
This concept, known as universality, became one of the most profound insights in theoretical physics.

シャルル＝オーギュスタン・ド・クーロン
Charles-Augustin de Coulomb
1736年6月14日-1806年8月23日
フランス・アングレーム出身の物理学者・土木技術者。
彼が発明した｢捻り天秤｣を用いて,
帯電した物体間に働く力を測定し,
【クーロンの法則】を発見‼️
電荷の単位｢クーロン｣[C]は彼の名に因む。
クーロンはフランス・アングレームの裕福な家庭に生まれた。
父アンリ・クーロン(Henri Coulomb)はモンペリエの役人であり,母Catherine Bajetは羊毛交易で財を成した名家の出であった。
少年時代,一家はパリに移住し,パリの名門校Collège des Quatre-Nationsにて学んだ。
そこでPierre Charles Monnierの数学の授業を受け,数学&数学に関連した分野に進むことを決意。
電荷の間に働く力は距離の2乗に反比例する事を発見。
【ニュートン🍎の万有引力の法則同様】
｢クーロンの法則｣と呼ばれる。
1773年,土圧理論を提唱。
クーロン土圧は,現在でも土木工学・土質工学系の分野で一般的に用いられている。
1774年には科学アカデミーの通信会員。
1777年磁気コンパスの研究により科学アカデミーの懸賞第一位に。
1781年,摩擦の研究により再び懸賞第一位を獲得。
同年,科学アカデミー会員に選出された。
1781年,最終任地としてパリに配属。
1789年,フランス革命の勃発に伴い辞職し,ブロワにて隠遁生活。
その後,革命政府による新しい度量衡の制定のためパリに呼び戻された。
1801年,フランス学士院会長。
1802年,社会教育長官。
その頃既にに彼の健康状態は悪化しており,4年後の1806年,パリにて死去。

1827年3月5日, 世界は人類に最初の連続的な電力源である電気電池🔋をもたらした, アレッサンドロ・ボルタを失った‼️
良く知られるように,ボルタの功績を記念して,
起電力,電位,電位差,電圧 の単位にボルト[V]が使われている‼️

#OnThisDay March 5, 1827, the world lost Alessandro Volta, the physicist who gave humanity its first continuous source of electricity — the electric battery.
His discovery didn’t just power experiments… it powered the future of modern technology.
Before Volta, scientists could only produce brief sparks of electricity using static machines.
Experiments were limited, unpredictable, and short-lived.
Volta changed that forever.
In 1800, Volta invented the Voltaic Pile — the world’s first true battery.
It was made by stacking alternating discs of:
- Zinc
- Copper
- Brine-soaked cloth
This simple stack produced continuous electric current for the first time in history.
Volta’s battery was revolutionary.
For the first time, scientists could run controlled electrical experiments for long periods.
This single invention opened the door to:
- Electrochemistry
- Electrical engineering
- Modern electronics
Volta’s work also settled a scientific debate.
Another scientist, Luigi Galvani, believed electricity came from animal tissues.
Volta proved the current actually came from chemical reactions between metals.
His discovery was so influential that the unit of electric potential was named after him.
Yes — every time we say volt, we are honoring Alessandro Volta.
In recognition of his work, Napoleon Bonaparte personally honored Volta and made him a count.
Few scientists in history received such recognition during their lifetime.
Today, every battery — from a smartphone to an electric car — traces its lineage back to Volta’s simple stack of metal discs.
A humble invention that electrified the world.

フランス🇫🇷の数学者,革命家,
エヴァリスト・ガロアÉvariste Galois
の生誕日‼️🔍🎉🎊🎂
1811.10.25.～1832年l.5.31.
Today is the birthday of French mathematician and political activist Évariste Galois.
His most profound work was written at age 18, and died in a duel at age 20.
He answered a long-standing and widely-studied unsolved question: he showed that there is no general formula for finding the roots of a polynomial of degree 5 or higher.
He found a deep connection between two areas of mathematics: in this case, group theory and field theory.
In so doing, he created new areas of mathematics that opened doors for generations of researchers.
Just think what he might have accomplished if he had lived.

その父とも喚ばれる, マックス・プランクが
｢プランクの法則｣を発表した。
また, 1925年,ハイゼンベルクの行列力学発表を起点にして
今年2025年は,｢量子力学100年｣‼️

#OnThisDay July 9, 1955 — The Russell–Einstein Manifesto was released in London.
Signed by 11 leading scientists including Albert Einstein and Bertrand Russell, it warned humanity of the dangers of nuclear weapons and called for peaceful resolution of conflicts. 🧵👇
I missed Billy Rootes' birthday yesterday! So much for #OnThisDay, more #Onyesterday Anyway, have an article about an eventful test drive... and some of his products in miniature. Always happy to receive more articles :-) https://t.co/7gh48ENKVZ
To mark the publication of John Keats' La Belle Dame Sans Merci #onyesterday 1820, a quick poll.
Which is the best interpretation of Keats' poem?
