Hans A. Bethe was a world-renowned scientist, a distinguished professor of physics and one of the most honored faculty members in Cornell's 140-year history.
May 1, 2005 · Like Albert Einstein, Hans Bethe was a citizen-scientist who tried to persuade society to wield the power of atoms wisely.
Mar 8, 2005 · ITHACA, N.Y. — Nobel laureate Hans Bethe, the last of the giants of the golden age of 20th-century physics and the birth of modern atomic theory, and one of science’s most universally admired...
Mar 8, 2005 · Hans A. Bethe, who discovered the violent reactions behind sunlight, helped devise the atom bomb and eventually cried out against the military excesses of the cold war, died late Sunday.
Hans Bethe (1906–2005) completed his PhD in theoretical physics in 1928. He then held a position as acting assistant professor at the University of Tubingen, which he lost after fleeing the Nazi regime in Germany.
Apr 8, 2005 · Hans Bethe was the supreme problem solver of the past century. He was not a deep thinker like Heisenberg and Dirac, who laid the foundations of modern physics in the 1920s. But he took their theories and made them into practical tools for understanding the behavior of atoms, stars, and everything in between.
