J. Robert Oppenheimer

Fra Wikipedia, den frie encyklopædi

J. Robert Oppenheimer (22. april 1904 - 18. februar 1967) var amerikansk fysiker og leder af Los Alamos laboratoriet under udviklingen af atombomben (1943-1945).

Mistanke om manglende loyalitet i 1953 førte til en senatshøring, som resulterede i, at han mistede sin betroede status. Oppenheimer blev af det mest af den videnskabelige verden betragtet, som en martyr for McCarthyismen.
