Michio Kaku

I vowed to myself that when I grew up and became a theoretical physicist, in addition to doing research, I would write books that I would have liked to have read as a child. So whenever I write, I imagine myself, as a youth, reading my books, being thrilled by the incredible advances being made in physics and science.

American Physicist

Jessica Chastain

My goal is that a girl will watch 'The Martian' or 'Interstellar' and think, 'I want to be an astronaut or a quantum physicist.' It's important to show powerful women who are good at their jobs because young girls need those examples.

American Actress

Fabiola Gianotti

CERN is a centre of scientific excellence and a source of pride and inspiration for physicists from all over the world, a cradle for technology and innovation, and a shining concrete example of scientific cooperation and peace.

Italian Physicist

Rolf-Dieter Heuer

The ability to work together has to be in the blood of particle physicists. They learn very early on that it is impossible to advance on one's own and that constant exchange is necessary.

German Physicist

Friedrich Durrenmatt

Our science has become terrible, our research dangerous, our findings deadly. We physicists have to make peace with reality. Reality is not as strong as we are. We will ruin reality.

Swiss Author

George Wald

It would be a poor thing to be an atom in a universe without physicists, and physicists are made of atoms. A physicist is an atom's way of knowing about atoms.

American Scientist

Will Smith

I'm a student of patterns. At heart, I'm a physicist. I look at everything in my life as trying to find the single equation, the theory of everything.

American Actor

Albert Einstein

If I were not a physicist, I would probably be a musician. I often think in music. I live my daydreams in music. I see my life in terms of music.

Eileen Pollack

When I was growing up, I wanted passionately to be a physicist.

American Novelist

Stephen Hawking

English Physicist

Used to signify someone with in-depth knowledge of physics, indicating expertise in the field.

Subject Expertise

Physicists often specialize in a specific branch, like astrophysics or quantum physics.

Field Specialization

The term is frequently associated with academic and research environments rather than industrial or applied contexts.

 By leading physicists to think deeply about the foundations of quantum physics, it led to further elaboration of the theory and helped launch research into subjects like quantum information, now a thriving field with the potential to develop computers of unparalleled power.

 Is the space now totally empty? Actually, no. All space is filled with what physicists call quantum fields. What we think of as subatomic particles, electrons and photons and their relatives, are actually vibrations in a quantum fabric that extends throughout the universe.

 But even that number is minuscule compared to another infinity. Some physicists think the space-time continuum is literally infinite and that it contains an infinite number of so-called pocket universes with varying properties. How's your brain doing?

 Everyday physics may start to look a bit more like the strange quantum world. Quantum teleportation may even progress so far, that one day your cat will escape to a safer galaxy, where there are no physicists and no boxes.
