Yang Chen Ning is world greatest living physicist

[Song Hong]

China media rate Yang Chen Ning's Yang-Mills theory on the same league of Relativity (Einstein) and Quantum (Heisenberg, Dirac, Schrodinger, Feynman). China media also rate Yang as the greatest living physicist. I think this is very true.

So what is your opinion.

Let me explain why I think highly of Yang Chen Ning. We know the top 2 major theory of 20th century is

1. Relativity
2. Quantum

Then during 1930s, on top of gravitational and E forces, M forces, scientists start to discover nuclear binding forces, later known as strong and weak forces. It is through the lens of Yang Mill that scientists are able to characterized and predict all fundamental particles like Bossons, Quarks Leptions.

The subsequent development and experiment verification of Yang Mill theory has led to at least 7 or even more than 10 Nobel prizes. It also lead to at least 4-5 field medalist.

Vow. That's truely remarkable

This dude at 82, marries an 28 year old girl. Wonder what she really wants from him !

I come out with the foundation/framework creator of most important branch of physics. Yang Chen Ning can be consider the founder of Standard Model through his Yang-Mills theory.

Most Important

1. Classical Mechanics (Newton)
2. Relativity (Einstein)
3. Electromagnetism (Maxwell)
4. Quantum (Heisenberg, Schrodinger, Dirac, Feynman)
5. Standard Model (Yang Chen Ning)

Next most important

6. Thermodynamic (Boltzmann)
7. Fluid Mechanic (Bernoulli)
8. Classical optics (Newton)
9. Classical Gravitation/Astrophysics (Newton)
