The more famous scientific photo of history
This is a translated page, so forgive the english :no:
Almost 80 years ago, a conference on physics organized in Brussels, in the heat of inter-war period, reunited elenco of privileged minds unique.
At the beginning of last century XX, the industrialist and filántropo Belgian Ernest Solvay used part of his fortune in organizing several conferences on physics to which the privileged minds more of the moment were invited.
Without a doubt most famous of all it was the fifth conference on physics that took place in October of 1927, to that attended the parents of the quantum physics and other figures already consecrated in other fields. Of that unique establishment of geniuses, reunited around thematic "Electrons and Photons" , we have left the one that stops many is the more famous scientific photography of history.
Of the 29 assistants, 17 were already, or were later, Nóbel prizes.
One realizes importance of the meeting and the assistants when it recognizes the faces of Pauli , Schrödinger , Einstein , Dirac , Marie Curie , Bohr , Planck , Lorentz and Heisenberg to mention most well-known.
This is the complete list of assistants:
(superior Row, of left to right)
To Piccard, And Henriot, P. Ehrenfest, Ed. Herzen, Th. De Donder, And Schrödinger, And Verschaffelt, W. Pauli, W. Heisenberg, R.H. Fowler, L. Brillouin.
(intermediate Row, of left to right)
P. Debye, M. Knudsen, W.L. Bragg, H.A. Kramers, P.A.M. Dirac, A.H. Compton, L. of Broglie, M. Born, N. Bohr.
(inferior Row, of left to right)
I. Langmuir, M. Planck, Madame. Curie, H.A. Lorentz, To Einstein, P. Langevin, Ch. And Guye, C.T.R. Wilson, and O.W. Richardson.

The anecdote of that encounter carried out the two figures of the time: Einstein and Bohr . When both discussed on the principle of uncertainty of Heisenberg, first it made his famous objection: "God does not play the dice", to which Bohr talked back, "Einstein, don't tell God what to do.".
