ALAN GUTH BIOGRAPHY AND BEST QUOTES || RESERCHED ELEMENTARY PARTICLE THEORY
1. Alan Harvey Guth (born February 27, 1947) is an American theoretical physicist and cosmologist. Guth has researched elementary particle theory (and how particle theory is applicable to the early universe).
2. He is Victor Weisskopf Professor of Physics at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Along with Alexei Starobinsky and Andrei Linde, he won the 2014 Kavli Prize "for pioneering the theory of cosmic inflation."
3. He graduated from MIT in 1968 in physics and stayed to receive a master's and a doctorate, also in physics.
4. As a junior particle physicist, Guth developed the idea of cosmic inflation in 1979 at Cornell and gave his first seminar on the subject in January 1980.
5. Moving on to the SLAC Theory Group at Stanford University Guth formally proposed the idea of cosmic inflation in 1981, the idea that the nascent universe passed through a phase of exponential expansion that was driven by a positive vacuum energy density (negative vacuum pressure).
6. The results of the WMAP mission in 2006 made the case for cosmic inflation very compelling.
7. HERE ARE SOME OF THE BEST QUOTES OF ALAN GUTH ARE VERY POPULAR
8. The Big Bang theory says nothing about what banged, why it banged, or what happened before it banged.
9. We don't have a solid theory of how the universe originated, but that doesn't mean we have to invoke a deity.
10. From the time I was a student, I think I was very confident in my raw abilities. I would think that, given a problem, I was as likely to solve it as anybody. But that's not enough in science to succeed, really.
11. If we assume there is no maximum possible entropy for the universe, then any state can be a state of low entropy.
12. Our best theory of describing space at a fundamental level is probably string theory.
13. It was sort of assumed, from the time I was born, really, that I would go to college. That's sort of the way that Jewish families in New Jersey handled things; that was the norm.
