杨振宁与李政道:科学家的荣誉之争 1956年杨振宁和李政道一起,推翻了爱因斯坦的“宇称守恒定律”,提出“弱相互作用下,宇称不守恒”定律,1957年获得诺贝尔物理奖。在物理科学的历史上,像杨振宁、李政道这样成功的合作关系,是十分罕见的。遗憾的是,他们密切美好而又相互竞争的科学合作,以及他们两人亲密的友谊,终究未能持久,以至于彻底决裂。 造成杨、李两人关系正式破裂的一个重要因素,也许是1962年出现在美国《纽 Yang Zhenning and Li Zhengdao: Honor Controversy among Scientists In 1956, Yang Zhenning and Li Zhengdao together overthrew Einstein’s “law of conservation of parity” and put forward the “law of parity under the weak interaction”. In 1957, he won the Nobel Prize Physics Award. In the history of the physical sciences, successful cooperation such as Yang Zhenning and Li Zhengdao is very rare. Regrettably, their close and beautiful but competing scientific cooperation and the close friendship between the two of them can not last so long as to completely break the law. An important factor that led to the official collapse of the relationship between Yang and Li may be the appearance in the United States in 1962
