Hewish, Antony hewish, antony. (b. May 11, 1924, Fowey, Cornwall, Eng.), British astrophysicistwho won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1974 for his discovery of pulsars http://www.britannica.com/nobel/micro/269_81.html
Extractions: (b. May 11, 1924, Fowey, Cornwall, Eng.), British astrophysicist who won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1974 for his discovery of pulsars (cosmic objects that emit extremely regular pulses of radio waves). Hewish was educated at the University of Cambridge and in 1946 joined the radio astronomy group there led by Sir Martin Ryle . While directing a research project at the Mullard Radioastronomy Observatory at Cambridge in 1967, Hewish recognized the significance of an observation made by a graduate assistant, Jocelyn Bell. He determined that the regularly patterned radio signals, or pulses, that Bell had detected were not caused by earthly interference or, as some speculated, by intelligent life forms trying to communicate with distant planets but rather were energy emissions from certain stars. For this work in identifying pulsars as a new class of stars, he was awarded jointly with Ryle the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1974, the first time the prize had been given for observational astronomy. Hewish was professor of radio astronomy at the Cavendish Laboratory, Cambridge, from 1971 to 1989.

Extractions: HOME SITE HELP ABOUT SEARCH ... EDUCATIONAL I was born in Fowey, Cornwall, on 11 May 1924, the youngest of three sons and my father was a banker. I grew up in Newquay, on the Atlantic coast and there developed a love of the sea and boats. I was educated at King's College, Taunton and went to the University of Cambridge in 1942. From 1943-46 I was engaged in war service at the Royal Aircraft Establishment, Farnborough and also at the Telecommunications Research Establishment, Malvern. I was involved with airborne radar-counter-measure devices and during this period I also worked with Martin Ryle. Returning to Cambridge in 1946 I graduated in 1948 and immediately joined Ryle's research team at the Cavendish Laboratory. I obtained my Ph.D. in 1952, became a Research Fellow at Gonville and Caius College where I had been an undergraduate, and in 1961 transferred to Churchill College as Director of Studies in Physics. I was University Lecturer during 1961-69, Reader during 1969-71 and Professor of Radio Astronomy from 1971 until my retirement in 1989. Following Ryle's illness in 1977 I assumed leadership of the Cambridge radio astronomy group and was head of the Mullard Radio Astronomy Observatory from 1982-88. My decision to begin research in radio astronomy was influenced both by my wartime experience with electronics and antennas and by one of my teachers, Jack Ratcliffe, who had given an excellent course on electromagnetic theory during my final undergraduate year and whom I had also encountered at Malvern. He was head of radiophysics at the Cavendish Laboratory at that time.

Extractions: Gender equality in science is a frequently discussed issue in today's society. An enormous amount of progress is being made by women in areas in which they were previously under-represented. One such example is the work of Jocelyn Bell in the field of astrophysics. As a graduate student at Cambridge University in 1967, Bell discovered evidence of a new type of star in our galaxy called pulsars. Prior to this, pulsars, or pulsating neutron stars, had only been a theory, and this evidence established a foundation from which to expand and verify the theory. Due to scientific hierarchies and reward systems, however, the work and discovery was accredited to Bell's professor, Antony Hewish, thus creating a veritable astronomical injustice in the form of the Jocelyn Bell story. Pulsars served to prove this theory of star rotation. Perhaps the greatest verification comes from the Crab Nebula. Documented by Chinese astronomers in 1054, a supernova explosion created the luminous remains known as the Crab Nebula.(Stellar Evol., p.54) The source for the luminosity was unknown until the presence of a high density pulsar was discovered near its centre. The rate of rotation of this galactic object is about 33 ms, which is much quicker than the average pulsar period of 1.34 seconds.(Hewish, p.740) To be rotating at such a fast speed, the star had to be extremely compact. However, with such pulse precision and energy output, the star also had to be extremely massive. A high density star would allow for both characteristics, and the detection of the Crab Nebula pulsar thus helped to substantiate the claims for a rotating star.

Cambridge, England, October 14, 1984] Radio astronomy was still a brand new science in 1946 when Ryle began surveying the radio universe. By 1959 he had prepared a catalog of some 500 radio sources, which he expanded to about 5000 sources by 1965. He was a pioneer in using two radio telescopes and interferometry to improve resolution. From 1972 through 1974 he was also England's Astronomer Royal. Wikipedia Martin Ryle Sir Martin Ryle September 27 October 14 ) was a British radio astronomer who developed revolutionary radio telescope systems (see e.g. aperture synthesis ) and used them for accurate location and imaging of weak radio sources. In Ryle and Vonberg were the first people to publish interferometric astronomical measurements at radio wavelengths, although it is claimed that Joseph Pawsey from the University of Sydney had actually made interferometric measurements earlier in the same year. With improved equipment, Ryle observed the most distant known galaxies in the universe at that time. He was the first Professor of
