Analysis:
Professor Stephen Hawking is one of the great men with high reputation in the contemporary era, and is called the greatest scientist alive today, Einstein. He took an important step in unifying the two basic theories of physics in the 20th century-Einstein's theory of relativity and Planck's quantum theory. 1989 was awarded the honorary title of British Jazz. He is a student of the Royal Society and a foreign academician of the American Academy of Sciences.
Professor Hawking 1942 65438+ 10 was born in Oxford, England, which happened to be the 300th anniversary of Galileo's death. Professor Hawking was diagnosed as muscular dystrophy, that is, motor neuropathy. 1965 received his doctorate in theoretical physics. 1 974 On March1day, Professor Hawking published a paper in Nature, expounding his new discovery that black holes are radioactive. Within a few weeks, physicists all over the world were discussing his research work (Hawking radiation was called Hawking radiation). Hawking's new discovery is regarded as the most important progress in the field of theoretical physics for many years. This paper is called "one of the most profound papers in the history of physics".
During the period of 1975- 1976, he won six awards, including the Eddington Medal of the Royal Astronomical Society of London, the 11th Medal of the Vatican Papal Science Society, the Hopkins Award, the Danny O 'Heinemann Award of the United States, the Maxwell Award of the Royal Society of England and the Hughes Medal. 1978, he won the Albert Einstein Prize, the most prestigious prize in physics. From 65438 to 0979, he was appointed as the famous Lucas Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge University, and was appointed by Newton. 1988, Hawking's amazing work A Brief History of Time: From the Big Bang to the Black Hole was released. Based on the study of black holes, this paper explores the origin and destination of the universe and answers the questions that human beings have been exploring: Does time have a beginning and does space have a boundary? This is a landmark masterpiece in the history of human science. The book has been translated into more than 40 languages and published more than100000 copies.
Professor Hawking's popular speeches are also very famous internationally, with footprints all over the world. He tried to communicate his thoughts with the world through his books and popular speeches. In early 2000, Hawking gave a speech at the White House as part of the Millennium Party. President Clinton cordially met with him and congratulated him. 200 1 10 Another masterpiece, The Universe in the Shell, was published. This book is a companion to A Brief History of Time. In this book, Hawking reveals the great breakthrough in theoretical physics since the publication of A Brief History of Time.
Professor Hawking was diagnosed as muscular dystrophy, that is, motor neuropathy. The doctor has diagnosed Hawking as terminally ill, and he can only live for two years. The main reason why he can support today and achieve impressive results is that he has a strong sense of mission and an extremely strong will. Hawking is a disabled person with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. He is paralyzed and can't take care of himself. His voice is abnormal and he can't communicate directly with others, but he is extremely intelligent. Disability didn't knock him down, but it brought his talent to the extreme. Hawking doesn't want people to regard him as a disabled person, and he himself is downplaying his disability, but he is indeed a disabled person and severely disabled. We have to say that his great charm comes from people's disabilities. People look for invisible things in every corner of the earth and endless mysteries in spacecraft. Looking back at the past in a wheelchair, Hawking penetrated the origin of time and the universe, and looking forward to the future, he predicted their destination with great foresight. Hawking's life is a record of human willpower and a miracle created by scientific spirit.
