Victor Frederick *Viki* Weisskopf (1908?2002) was an Austrian-born American theoretical physicist renowned for his work in quantum electrodynamics, and nuclear physics. He earned his doctorate in physics at the University of G?ttingen in 1931 and worked closely with Niels Bohr in Copenhagen. Weisskopf emigrated to the United States in the late 1930s to escape Nazi persecution and became a professor at the University of Rochester before joining MIT after World War II. During the war, he was a key member of the Manhattan Project at Los Alamos. Among his many recognitions, Weisskopf received the National Medal of Science and the Wolf Prize, and held leadership roles in multiple scientific organizations. He is remembered both for his scientific achievements and for his dedication to promoting peace and responsible use of science. Artikel-Nr. 2508060004
