Ting, Samuel Chad Chung
Americký fyzik, který je spoludržitelem Nobelovy ceny za fyziku pro rok 1976 za objevení èástice J/psí obsahující c kvark.
Syn èínského profesora. Ve dvaceti se pøestìhoval z Èíny do USA, kde studoval na universitì v Michiganu, kde také v roce 1962 získal doktorát. Ting uèil na Columbijské universitì a stal se vedoucím skupiny "Atomic Facility" v Hamburgu. V roce 1967 vstupuje na pùdu Massachusetts Institute of Technology a o dva roky pozdìji se stává profesorem.
V roce 1974 objevil Ting novou èástici J/psí. Bylo to v "Brookhaven National Laboratory" poblíže Uptonu, Long Island, stát New York. Èástice se jmenuje J/psí podle dvou pracoviš, na kterých byla objevena. Je složena z kvarku c a jeho antikvarku a tímto objevem byla podpoøen kvarkový model èástic. Za objev získal spolu s Burtonem Richterem (objevil èástici nezávisle ve Stanfordu) Nobelovu cenu za fyziku pro rok 1976. V roce udìlení Nobelovy ceny pracoval S. Ting v komplexu laboratoøí CERN v Ženevì.

    GOLDSEA
    ASIAMS.NET ASIAN AMERICAN PERSONALITIES THE 12 MOST BRILLIANT ASIAN AMERICANS OF ALL TIME
    Asian Americans who have expanded the frontiers of knowledge and understanding.
    PAGE 1 OF 2 rue brilliance connotes the shedding of bright light to help us see more of the universe and our place in it.
    That was our working definition in selecting the first dozen Asian Americans to kick off this category. A dozen is a poetic starting point. We expect many suggestions for expanding it to accommodate other less obvious but intensely luminous figures.
    It may come as little surprise that the majority are drawn from the fields of science and technology. It's the intellectually broad-shouldered area to which Asian Americans have contributed most remarkably so far so much so that some may be tempted to dismiss these as routine or pedestrian. That would be a shame. Each profiled scientist came by his light through long, uniquely lonesome and intensive effort, and each illuminates a uniquely exciting frontier of human thought.
    The same can be said for the three whose fluorescence touches the human spirit in ways more easily related to everyday life. The architect, the literary critic, the jurist must all follow long, unique paths to attain the perspective and integrity required to generate renewing light.

    In the crucial transition period from the initiative phase to the overall implementing phase of the Academy¡¯s Knowledge Innovation Program (KIP), the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), based on the experience of the KIP initiative phase, has attached great importance to the broad solicitation of suggestions on the overall implementing phase of the KIP with the aim at further clarifying its position in the National Innovation System and setting up goals and measures for the development and reform in the next few years. On 4th August 2000, an International Consultation Symposium on the Pilot Projects of the Knowledge Innovation Program was held at CAS. Several world famous scientists, the Nobel Prize winners Prof. Chen Ning Yang, Prof. Samuel C.C. Ting, Prof. Hartmut Michel, Prof. Rudolph A. Marcus as well as the Fields Prize winner Prof. Shing-Tung Yau, were invited to the Symposium. They are all CAS Foreign Members. CAS solicited their constructive comments on the Knowledge Innovation Program. During their stay in China, three of them gave special lectures at the CAS Innovation Strategic Forum. 1983 Fields Prize winner, Prof. Prof. Shing-Tung Yau from Harvard University lectured on ¡°The Mathematics in the 21

    Looking at this Laboratory from the outside, we see, of course, a collection of distinguished scientists and many of us come to visit them. But the Lab as a lab looks like an enormous version of the instrument in the cafeteria that dispenses soft drinks. There are a large number of faucets. Out of some of them come neutrons, out of other come photons in a variety of wavelengths, and out of still others come protons or ions or electrons.
    Frederick Richards, Yale University
    Where once a young sergeant named Irving Berlin contemplated Army life and wrote "Oh, How I Hate to Get Up in the Morning," some 56 years later a young scientist named Samuel Ting from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, investigating the structure of matter, discovered a new particle. These men had two things in common: In their different ways, they were both interested in the eternal verities, and unlikely as it seems, they made their investigations at the same place.

    Managing The World's Biggest, Most Expensive Research Project
    By Robert P. Crease AUTHOR: ROBERT P. CREASE AND CHARLES C. MANN
    Date: September 05, 1988 Nobelist Sam Ting says his CERN experiment is like the United Nations—‘except we get something done.’ Here’s why GENEVA"I don’t know what your rules are,” the particle physicist Sam Ting tells. the officials from the Soviet Union as they drink coffee in his Geneva office. “I don’t even care. What I am saying is this: When the announcement of a discovery is made, the people on the podium are the people who get the. credit. If you want your scientists to get the credit they deserve, you will have to change your policies about not letting them work outside the Soviet Union. Obviously, the choice is up to you—not to me. “He smiles. “1 am just a scientist, a single professor at MIT” For the first time in the meeting the Soviet delegation laughs. Whatever they think about their rules and Ting’s desire that they break them, the Soviets know that he is not just a scientist, a single prof essor at MIT the leader of the biggest and most costly scientific experiment ever attempted. Deep beneath the foothills of the mountains separating France and Switzerland, an enormous project is nearing completion a particle accelerator 27 kilometers—nearly 17 miles—around. Known as LEP (Large Electron-Positron Colli der), the accelerator will house four of the most costly scientific experiments ever performed. Three of the experiments are sponsored by—and receive most of their budget direction from—the home institution, CERN, the 13-nation European Laboratory for Particle Physics. These experiments exemplify the large undertakings, now commonplace in science, that have come to be called Big Science.
