The cable repairman was on my street and asked me what time it was.
I told him it is between 1:00 pm and 4:00 pm.
Yuan T. LeeBorn 19 Nov 1936. Taiwanese-American chemist whoshared (with Dudley R. Herschbach and John C. Polanyi)the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1986 for his role in the development of chemical-reaction dynamics. As a postdoctoral researcher, Lee experimented with and further developed Herschbach's invention of the “crossed molecular beam technique”. This studied reactions between molecules at low pressures by letting beams of molecules and/or atoms meet at one point in space. Lee extended Herschbach's technique, introducing mass spectroscopy to identify the products resulting from the reactions of oxygen and fluorine atoms with complex organic compounds. |
