About the scientist:

Enrico Fermi (1901-1954) was a renowned Italian physicist who made significant contributions to nuclear and particle physics. In 1934, he conducted the first nuclear fission experiment, which later led to the development of the atomic bomb. Fermi was also instrumental in the creation of the first controlled nuclear chain reaction, a feat that is widely regarded as a significant milestone in the development of nuclear power. His research on beta decay, neutrino interactions, and the weak nuclear force laid the foundation for the development of the electroweak theory, for which Sheldon Glashow, Abdus Salam, and Steven Weinberg were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1979. Fermi was a Nobel Prize laureate himself, receiving the award in Physics in 1938 for his work on artificial radioactivity. Fermi's remarkable contributions to science continue to inspire new generations of physicists today.
