Description

Abdus Salam

Pakistani theoretical physicist (1926–1996) who received the 1979 Nobel Prize in Physics for his contribution to the electroweak unification theory. Handwritten manuscript titled and signed at the top, “Developments In Particle Physics by Abdus Salam,” one page, 8 x 11, circa 1979. Page from a draft for a lecture given at the European Physical Society Conference in Geneva in June–July 1979. In part: “A conference so vast, so many-sided, is impossible to summarize and I shall not attempt to do so. My major theme will be a gauge-theorist’s appreciation of the developments in Particle Physics reported at the Conference: And in particular I wish to address myself to the question raised by Prof. Fichichi in his opening address: Is there likely to be a ‘desert’ in Particle Physics Phenomena…?” Includes a 1980 TLS from Salam transmitting the page. In fine condition. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
