Nobel Laureates lecture at the Einstein Symposium
Posted on
Alexandria, 31 May 2005—Saturday, 4 June 2005, will witness a day dedicated to lectures by Nobel Laureates at the Bibliotheca Alexandrina (BA). An annual meeting of Nobel Laureates hosted by the BA, it will be attended by foreign and Arab scientists. This year’s lectures will focus on physics as the BA celebrates the World Year of Physics (1905), a year that marked Albert Einstein’s publishing of five major papers on special theory of relativity, Brownian motion, the photoelectric effect, and his famous equation E=mc2.
Honoring the symposium with their eminent presence, are Nobel Laureates: Professor Murray Gell-Mann, who was awarded the 1969 Nobel Prize in Physics for his contributions and discoveries concerning the classification of elementary particles and their interactions; Professor Klaus von Klitzing, who was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1985 for the discovery of the quantized Hall effect; and Professor Gerardus ’t Hooft who was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1999 for elucidating the quantum structure of electroweak interactions in physics.
