George Gamow

Photo:  Creation of the Universe; in National Gallery of Art 4/4   Flashes of Creation: George Gamow, Fred Hoyle, and the Great Big Bang Debate, by Paul Halpern A respected physics professor and author breaks down the great debate over the Big Bang and the continuing quest to understand the fate of the universe. Today, the Big Bang is so entrenched in our understanding of the cosmos that to doubt it would seem crazy. But as Paul Halpern shows in Flashes of Creation, just decades ago its mere mention caused sparks to fly. At the center of the debate were the Russian-American physicist George Gamow and the British astrophysicist Fred Hoyle. Gamow insisted that a fiery explosion explained how the elements of the universe were created. Attacking the idea as half-baked, Hoyle countered that the universe was engaged in a never-ending process of creation. The battle was fierce. In the end, Gamow turned out to be right—mostly—and Hoyle, along with his many achievements, is remembered for giving the theory the silliest possible name: "the Big Bang." Halpern captures the brilliance of both thinkers and reminds us that even those proven wrong have much to teach us about boldness, imagination, and the universe itself.   https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08PV5CLZQ/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_tkin_p1_i0

Doç. Dr. Serhan Yarkan ve Halil Said Cankurtaran'ın yer aldığı, Bilim Tarihi Serisi'nin George Gamow odaklı ikinci kısmında: Doğu ve Batı Bloklarının bilimsel çalışmalarda gösterdiği temel farklılıklar, George Gamow'un çalışmaları ve çalışmalarında göstermiş olduğu çeşitlilik konuları işlenmiştir. Bunlara ek olarak, bölümümüzün sonlarında bilimsel eleştiri kültürü üzerinde durulmuştur. Keyifli dinlemeler! Eleştiri konusunda atıf yapılan IEEE Etik Kodları maddesi bağlantıdaki I. bölümün 5. maddesidir: https://www.ieee.org/about/corporate/governance/p7-8.html #66.

Bilim Tarihi serimizin ilk bölümü ile karşınızdayız! Bilimsel gelişmeleri tarihsel süreç içerisinde incelemeye çalışacağımız serimizin ilk bölümüne, bilim anlatıcılığı konusunda çıtayı çok yükseklere çıkarmış olan George Gamow ile başlamak istedik. Bu bölümümüzde, George Gamow özelinde bilim anlatıcılığı üzerine konuşulmuş ve ülkemizdeki çalışmalardan bahsedilmiştir. Ayrıca, teorik fizik, kozmoloji ve moleküler genetik alanlarında bilim dünyasına önemli katkıları bulunan George Gamow'un da hakkında çalışmalarının bulunduğu kozmik mikrodalga arka plan ışımasının pratik olarak gösterilmesi ile 1978 yılında Nobel Fizik Ödülü'ne layık görülen Arno Allan Penzias ve Robert Woodrow Wilson ile yaşadığı tartışmalara değinilmiştir. Bunlara ek olarak, Gamow'un James Watson ile moleküler genetik alanında olan ilişkisine de değinilmiştir.
