骂了杨振宁这么多年,今年怎么骂声变小了?

  • 胡扯,别不懂装懂在学术圈,主流的观点认为是杨振宁贡献远大于米尔斯,原因是这样的,当时的杨振宁是正儿八经的科学家,而米尔斯只是杨振宁的学生,一位普通的研究生而已。什么同事关系什么同事能共用一间办公室

  • Robert Mills  graduated from George School in Pennsylvania in early 1944  and, in March, entered Columbia College in New York. While there, he enlisted in the US Merchant Marines in the last year of World War II; he served until 1947.
    On leave from the service, he attended classes at Columbia, where his father was an economics professor. In 1948, his senior year, Mills was a winner of the Putnam national college mathematics contest. The mathematical ability he displayed there was evident throughout his career as a theoretical physicist. He then studied at Cambridge University, where he received first-class honors in the mathematical tripos and a master’s degree. Mills returned to Columbia and got his PhD in 1955 under Norman Kroll for a thesis on radiative corrections in quantum electrodynamics.
    From 1953 to 1955, Mills was a research associate at Brookhaven National Laboratory and shared an office with Yang. During that time, they developed what is now known as the Yang–Mills theory.
    From 1955 to 1956, Mills was a member of the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey. He then joined the physics department of Ohio State University and became a full professor in 1962. He remained at OSU until his retirement in 1995.

    译文:罗伯特·米尔斯于1944年初从宾夕法尼亚州乔治学校毕业,并于3月进入纽约哥伦比亚学院。在那里,他在第二次世界大战的最后一年加入了美国商船护卫队。1947年退役后,他参加了哥伦比亚大学的课程,他的父亲是该校经济学教授。1948年,也就是他大四的时候,米尔斯是Putnam全国大学数学竞赛的获胜者。他在那里展示的数学能力在他作为理论物理学家的整个职业生涯中都是显而易见的。然后,他在剑桥大学学习,在那里他获得了数学tripos一等荣誉和硕士学位。米尔斯回到哥伦比亚大学,1955年在诺曼·克罗尔(Norman Kroll)的指导下获得博士学位,发表了一篇关于量子电动力学中辐射修正的论文。
    从1953年到1955年,米尔斯是布鲁克海文国家实验室的研究助理,与杨共用一间办公室。在这段时间里,他们发展了现在称之为的杨-米尔斯理论。
    从1955年到1956年,米尔斯是新泽西州普林斯顿高等研究所的成员。随后,他加入俄亥俄州立大学物理系,并于1962年成为正式教授,直到在1995年退休。
  • 主要是这套理论符合杨振宁一贯的学术思想;其所需要的数学也不是每个物理学家能够胜任,恰恰是杨振宁所擅长的。
    此外,合作者米尔斯此前此后再也没有能让同行有印象的工作。
