Nobel Prize-winning physicist Tsung-Dao Lee will visit campus as the Tercentennial Tetelman Fellow Wednesday-Friday, Sept. 12-14.
Lee will present the Tetelman Lecture on the topic "Symmetry and Asymmetry" at 5:15 p.m. on Wednesday in the Yale University Art Gallery lecture hall (entrance on High Street). A master's tea titled "A Conversation with Tsung-Dao Lee" will follow on Thursday at 4 p.m. in the Jonathan Edwards College master's house, 70 High St. On Friday, Lee will discuss "Challenges in Physics" at a meeting of the Physics Club at 4 p.m. in Rm. 57 of Sloane Physics Laboratory, 217 Prospect St. A tea will precede the talk at 3:30 p.m. in the third-floor lounge.
All three events are free and open to the public.
Lee is currently the University Professor at Columbia University. He is also director of the RIKEN-BNL Research Center at Brookhaven National Laboratory and director of the China Center of Advanced Science and Technology in Beijing.
In 1957 Lee received the Nobel Prize with C.N. Yang for his work on the nonconservation of parity. His physics research has ranged over many areas in theoretical physics, including particle physics, statistical mechanics, field theory, relativistic heavy ions, condensed matter and nonlinear systems.
The Tetelman Fellowship at Yale was endowed in 1979 by Damon Wells of the Class of 1958 in memory of his friend and classmate Alan S. Tetelman, who died in an air crash in 1978. The fellowship honors distinguished individuals who have made a significant contribution to science.
