Today (August 9, 1911) is the Birthday of William Alfred Willie Fowler, the Nobel Prize-winning American nuclear physicist who made theoretical studies on nuclear reactions.
William Alfred "Willie" Fowler was born on August 9, 1911, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Fowler's parents were John McLeod Fowler and Jenny Summers Watson. Fowler is the eldest of his siblings, Arthur and Nelda. When Fowler was two years old, the family moved to Lima, Ohio, the city of steam rail. Grew up near the Pennsylvania Railway Yard, sparking interest in Foller's engines. Then in 1973, he traveled to the Soviet Union to oversee the steam engine that operated the Trans-Siberian Railway. It runs a nearly 2,500-kilometer route connecting Khabarovsk and Moscow. He graduated from Ohio University. He was then a member of the Dow Cappa Epsilon organization. He holds a Ph.D. in Atomic Physics from the California Institute of Technology.
Fowler continued to be interested in steam engine operators. He had several steam engine operators of various sizes. In 1936, Fowler became a research colleague at Caltech. In 1939, Fowler became an assistant professor at Caltech. Although an experimental atomic physicist, Fowler's most famous article is "The Compilation of the Elements of the Stars". It worked with Cambridge cosmologist Fred Hoyle and two young Cambridge astronomers, E.J. Worked with Margaret Purbitz and Jeffrey Purbitz. A 1957 article on Criticisms of Modern Physics characterized most nuclear processes for the formation of everything except the light chemical components of stars. It is widely known as P2FH paper.
In 1942, Fowler became an associate professor at Caltech. In 1946, Fowler became a professor at Caltech. He was succeeded by Charles Larrison as director of the Kellogg Radiation Laboratory at Foller Caltech. Then Steven E. Koon won. Fowler was awarded the National Medal of Science by President Gerald Ford. Fowler won the Henry Norris Russell Lecture of the American Astronomical Society in 1963, the Wetleson Prize in 1973, the Eddington Medal in 1978, and the Bruce Medal of the Pacific Astronomical Society in 1979, and the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1983. Theoretical and experimental studies on nuclear reactions important to the formation of chemical elements in the universe (shared with Subramaniam Chandrasekhar.
