Owen Chamberlain (July 10, 1920 – February 28, 2006) was an American physicist who shared with Emilio Segrè the Nobel Prize in Physics for the discovery of the antiproton, a sub-atomic antiparticle.
Owen Chamberlain was an American physicist, who shared the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1959 with Emilio Segrè for their discovery of the antiproton. This previously postulated subatomic particle was the second antiparticle to be discovered and led directly to the discovery of many additional.
Owen Chamberlain was a prominent American physicist who co-discovered the antiproton and studied the spin dependence of various high energy processes. He worked on the Manhattan Project, the University of Chicago, and the Berkeley Bevalac accelerator, and was a Fellow of the American Physical Society and a member of the National Academy of Sciences.
