Drawing on unpublished documents from archives in Brazil and the US as well as private sources, the book traces Tiomno‘s long life, following his role in the establishment of various research facilities and his tribulations during the Brazilian military dictatorship. It presents a story of progress and setbacks in advancing science in Brazil and beyond, and of the persistence and dedication of a talented physicist who spent his life in search of scientific truth.. | 出版日期 | Book 2020 | 关键词 | Physics Education in Brazil; History of Physics in Brazil; Feynman in Brazil; Weak interactions; Muon Ph | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-41011-7 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-030-41013-1 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-030-41011-7Series ISSN 2365-0613 Series E-ISSN 2365-0621 | issn_series | 2365-0613 | copyright | Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2020 |
