#Microsoft ha appena presentato un chip quantistico basato su "qubit topologici" a cui ha dato il nome di #majorana1. Ma chi era il fisico italiano che il premio Nobel #EnricoFermi riteneva confrontabile solo con Isaac Newton e Galileo Galilei? E come/dove è sparito?

December 2, 1942 - Enrico Fermi, the Italian-born Nobel Prize-winning physicist, directed and controlled the first self-sustaining fission reaction in his laboratory beneath the bleachers of Stagg Field at the University of Chicago.
The result of this experiment made the atomic bomb possible and ushered in the nuclear age. Upon successful completion of the experiment, a coded message was transmitted to President Roosevelt: "The Italian navigator has landed in the new world."
Really just us from the future?
Boggling uncanny.

Enrico Fermi and his team built the first nuclear reactor, known as Chicago Pile-1, under the west stands of University of Chicago’s Stagg Field. On December 2, 1942, Fermi and his team achieved the first controlled, self-sustaining nuclear chain reaction.

Thanks for sharing!
P.S.
A few people eventually moved from #twitter to #mastodon.Suddenly, the old #buzzwords (*) of #stringtheory and #categorytheory pop up in the new, #distributed #fediverse.
(*) The above link is an example of a "history" of #physics that mentions #CarloRovelli but not #EnricoFermi.
Amazing movie and an Oscar winner!
But what if the US did not develop the first atom bomb?
Blending history with sci-fi.

The movie is out and it all started with Enrico Fermi.
But what if he was murdered before creating the world's first nuclear reactor?

#EnricoFermi era un físico italiano q dirigió la construcción de la primera pila atómica en #Chicago El reactor se hizo crítico en 1942 Dec.02
Estos días los medios españoles están llenos de chuflas hablando de "#Oppenheimer" -la película- y de Física sin tener ni puñetera idea.Fermi fue capaz de "estimar" la potencia de detonación de Trinity en 10 kton a partir del desplazamiento de unos pedazos de papel frente a los 21 kton reales. Es lo q se llama Fermi quiz o estimación del orden de magnitud
Primo esperimento al Mondo di un ordigno nucleare. "Morte, distruttore di mondi". Il Trinity Test e la prima bomba atomica. Gadget, la prima bomba atomica della storia, segna la svolta della Seconda Guerra Mondiale. Una creazione della quale lo stesso padre, Robert Oppenheimer, era spaventato.
Il 16 luglio 1945 esplose la prima bomba atomica.

There are two possible outcomes: If the result confirms the hypothesis, then you've made a measurement. If the result is contrary to the hypothesis, then you've made a discovery.
-- Enrico Fermi
#TodayInHistory Chicago Pile-1, the world's first artificial nuclear reactor is built by a team led by Enrico Fermi in 1942, during the Manhattan Project, that would carry out the first ever self sustaining nuclear reaction, a major breakthrough in nuclear energy.
