George Thomson (fizikçi)
Kariyer

I. Dünya Savaşı'ndaki kısa hizmetinin ardından, kariyerine Aberdeen Üniversitesi'nde devam etmiştir. Thomson 1937 yılında Aberdeen'de elektron dalgalarının özelliklerini keşfinden ötürü Nobel Fizik ödülü'ne layık görülmüştür. Aynı keşfi bağımsızca ortaya çıkardıkları için Clinton Davisson'la bu ödülü paylaşmışlardır.
1930 yılında Imperial Koleji'ine profesör olarak atandı. 1930 sonları ve II. Dünya Savaşı sırasında askeri uygulamalar için nükleer fizikte uzmanlaştı. 1940-1941'de atom bombasını oluşturmayı tamamladı. Daha sonraki hayatında nükleer enerjiyle ilgili çalışmalarına devam etti. Aerodinamik ve toplumsal bilimler alanlarında eserler yazdı. 1943'te şövalye oldu. 1952 yılına kadar Imperial Koleji'nde devam etti.
