Uhm... we would still miss Faraday :uhh:Izzhov said:If I could change the poll I would replace Rutherford with him.
Izzhov said:Interesting how Einstein hasn't gotten any votes so far.

But it's quite funny to even ask the question :tongue:ranger said:These kind of topics are useless and there will always be missing physicist.

Do we have a Nobel prize who also is a Field medalist ?ZapperZ said:Where's the only physicist to have won the Nobel Prize in physics twice?

I thought Witten might become one. In any case, that would be tremendous an achievement.ZapperZ said:Not that I know of. Anyone know of any?
You are missing the point. Newton would not be who he is without Galileo. And Einstein also sits on the shoulders of giants.Izzhov said:If only I could list more than 10 options, I would include all of the physicists talked about so far!
Even if I could, I still think Newton would win though...
humanino said:Ah, Brian David Josephson wins my heart.

I was mainly having fun Josephson was a very young fellow when he won the Nobel prize (actually, a 22 years old graduate student). But today, he is occupied in remotly disconnected activities from fundamental physics, namely paranormal phenomena. How to judge this phenomenon ? Important physicist no doubt. Crackpot as well ?fi said:I don't know much about physicists, why do you say that?
On the shoulders yesimaplanck said:If you go by that rationale, you would also have to say Galileo sat on Aristotle or Plato.
:rofl:humanino said:On the shoulders yes
