Enrico Fermi

Enrico Fermi (1901-1954) was an Italian (later naturalized American) physicist and the creator of the world's first nuclear reactor, the Chicago Pile-1. He has been called the "architect of the nuclear age" and the "architect of the atomic bomb". He was one of very few physicists to excel in both theoretical physics and experimental physics. Fermi was awarded the 1938 Nobel Prize in Physics for his work on induced radioactivity by neutron bombardment and for the discovery of transuranium...

A biography of Enrico Fermi, one of the greatest physicists of the 20th century. His important discoveries about the atom led to the nuclear bomb.

Enrico Fermi. My dear friend Olivia Fermi's grandfather, the Nobel-prize winning physicist. I am honored to learn about this great man from her. RIP.

These famed scientists had a profound impact on the 20th century — their discoveries changed how we viewed both ourselves and our surroundings.

When the Spanish Steps Apartment was being renovated, we stayed for a time in the delightful Monti district, on Via Panisperna. We soon discovered that this little street had an very interesting pa…
