摘要
Chien-Shiung Wu has been praised as the world's"empress of nuclear physics."Why? She was the only woman who worked on the Manhattan Project,under which the United States developed the atomic bomb;she used the Beta Decay Experiment to prove the parity non-conservation theory under weak interaction, proposed by Nobel laureates Tsung-Dao Lee and Chen-Ning Yang;and she received more than 60 honors,academic degrees and awards.
她被誉为"核物理学女皇";她是参与美国研究首颗原子弹"曼哈顿计划"中的唯一女性;她曾使用衰变实验,验证了杨振宁、李政道提出的"弱相互作用下宇称不守恒矢量流"理论;她一生获得的荣誉、学位和奖励达60多项。
