Enrico fermi

Enrico Fermi was an Italian-born, naturalized American physicist particularly known for his work on the development of the first nuclear reactor, Chicago Pile-1.

The Nobel Prize in Physics 1938 was awarded to Enrico Fermi "for his demonstrations of the existence of new radioactive elements produced by neutron irradiation, and for his related discovery of nuclear reactions brought about by slow neutrons"

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.

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...

Hes the Bomb: An Enrico Fermi Biography

Important Manhattan Project research was conducted at Columbia University’s Schermerhorn Hall (pictured) and Pupin Hall. World-class physicists, including Nobel Prize winners Isidor I. Rabi and Enrico Fermi, joined Columbia’s research team to investigate the relatively new science of atomic particles. Hungarian physicist Leo Szilard first realized the possibility of a…

From Cillian Murphy's J. Robert Oppenheimer to Florence Pugh's Jean Tatlock, here is what the real people played by "Oppenheimer" actors actually looked like.

Enrico Fermi (1901-1954) was an Italian physicist and recipient of the 1938 Nobel Prize in Physics. In 1942, Fermi relocated to the Chicago Met Lab, where he built an experimental reactor pile under Stagg Field at the University of Chicago. Construction was completed on December 1 and the reactor went…
