He had a long running relationship with philosopher Simone du Beauvoir.
Pic 2: Enrico Fermi – Italian Physicist, credited to be the first person first demonstrate that controlled fission reaction is possible. He won the Nobel prize for Physics in 1938 for his works on Nuclear science. He defected to the US in 1938, because of the anti semitic laws effected by Benito Mussolini’s regime. (His wife was Jewish). During the second world war, he was involved in the Manhattan project, the US effort to build an Atomic bomb. An artificial element that was discovered from the debris after Operation Ivy, a series of nuclear tests by America, was named Fermium in his honour.

He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1956, for his role in the development in the theory of quantum electrodynamics. He developed a widely used pictorial representation of the mathematical expressions governing behaviour of subatomic particles, which later came to be known as the Feynman diagrams. He was one person who did not confirm to the stereotypical images of scientists- he was also known as a juggler, prankster, amateur magician, amateur painter and a bongo player.

First recognized for his “Twenty love poems and a song of despair”, he later came to be better known for his poetry laced with political overtones, influenced by his involvement in the Spanish Civil War and the Chilean Communist movement .
