Talk:Ahmed Zewail

message: 1-I guess the question has been raised before, but why is AZ listed as Zowail? He publishes all his papers as Zewail, so I would assume that this is his correct, or at least preferred name.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.32.220.37 (talk) 00:52, 24 January 2009 (UTC)

message: Femtochemistry is not a real title/subject of research.  It is called Femtosecond Spectroscopy.  That is what every research university and research group that studies or uses this tool refers to it as.  Femtochemistry is an absurd misnomer, since few if any chemical reactions occur on the femtosecond timescale, and his Nobel Prize was given for kinetic research (Eg:  the study of chemical reactions).  Atoms simply do not move around on the femtosecond timescale.  They move around on the Picosecond (molecular vibration and diffusion limit) timescale or slower.68.6.76.31 (talk) 04:54, 3 August 2011 (UTC)

message: The new section on the Zewail City of Science and Technology should be moved to a separate article. It is not really about the scientist Ahmed Zewail, but rather about an institution that is named after him. Of course, if there are two articles, each can briefly link to the other. In this article, there can be a one-sentence mention of Zewail City with a link to the other article. And the other article can include the phrase named after the scientist Ahmed Zewail, with a link to this article. Dirac66 (talk) 02:59, 14 January 2013 (UTC)

message: Much of the article is drawn from here. Black Kite (talk) 17:39, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: I've been looking through the article, at this version which was tagged on 7 August 2016. It appears to be the three paragraphs under 'Research' that are a problem, from "His work started with [...]" down to "[...] different chemical processes and rotational motions." That is cited to an autobiographical book by Zewail: Voyage Through Time (2002), though for some reason the citation is to page 287 which is the index page where the index entries for Zewail appear. This text was added on 23 April 2012 by User:13OwensM, with some of the text removed in July 2012 as POV (suspected copyvio). Based on this, I'm going to remove what is left of what that user added, and try and replace it with a summary of Zewail's work and then improve the referencing of the rest of the article.

thread_title:  Close paraphrasing / copyvio 

message: Noting here that I removed this uncited text, which mentions a student of Zewail. Can be added back if cited and if a more rounded overview of his teaching legacy can be provided (just a single example gives undue weight). Carcharoth (talk) 06:11, 9 August 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Zewail's students 

message: Two bits removed to be checked:
