Lederman was born in New York City, New York, the son of Minna ( née Rosenberg ) and Morris Lederman, a laundryman.

In 1977, a group of physicists led by Leon Lederman announced that a particle with a mass of about 6. 0 GeV was being produced by the Fermilab particle accelerator.

Lederman was an early supporter of Science Debate 2008, an initiative to get the then-candidates for president, Barack Obama and John McCain, to debate the nation's top science policy challenges.

Dr. Lederman was born in New York to a family of Jewish immigrants from Russia.

In his book, The God Particle: If the Universe Is the Answer, What Is the Question ?, Lederman writes that, although he was a chemistry major, he became fascinated with physics, because of the clarity of the logic and the unambiguous results from experimentation.

Lederman began his Ph. D research working with Columbia's Nevis synchro-cyclotron, which was the most powerful particle accelerator in the world at that time.

On August 26, 2008 Dr. Lederman was video-recorded by a science focused organization called ScienCentral, on the street in a major U. S. city, answering questions from passersby.

The muon neutrino was discovered in 1962 by Leon M. Lederman, Melvin Schwartz and Jack Steinberger, and the tau discovered between 1974 and 1977 by Martin Lewis Perl and his colleagues from the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center and Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.

Dr. Zvi Lederman, co-director of the Tel Aviv University Beth Shemesh dig which discovered the seal discussed below, believes that Beth Shemesh, a Canaanite village, was a cultural meeting point on the border of Israelite, Canaanite and Philistine areas and calls the stories " border sagas ", saying that Samson could cross boundaries, seeking a Philistine wife but also fighting and killing Philistines.

Rabi chaired Columbia's physics department from 1945 to 1949, during which time it was home to two Nobel Laureates ( Rabi and Enrico Fermi ) and eleven future laureates, including seven faculty ( Polykarp Kusch, Willis Lamb, Maria Goeppert-Mayer, James Rainwater, Norman Ramsey, Charles Townes and Hideki Yukawa ), a research scientist ( Aage Bohr ), a visiting professor ( Hans Bethe ), a doctoral student ( Leon Lederman ) and an undergrad ( Leon Cooper ).

Cotto believes that Margarito cheated because there was a picture of Margarito with his glove off and his wrap was cracked HBO analyst Harold Lederman had also scored the fight even.

Weaver was given a rematch with Dokes on May 20, 1983, which ended in a 15-round majority draw ; judge Jerry Roth gave Dokes a four point victory while judges Harold Lederman and Larry Hazzard had it even.

Nobel laureate Leon Lederman, director emeritus of nearby Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory in Batavia, Illinois, was among the first to propose the school in 1982, and together with Governor Jim Thompson led the effort for its creation.

In her ruling on the case Miami-Dade Circuit Judge Cindy Lederman struck down the law, stating that the testimony of George Rekers “ was far from a neutral and unbiased recitation of the relevant scientific evidence ,” and that “ Dr.

Teddy Ebersol's Red Sox Fields at Lederman Park is named in memory of Saint James's son, and an episode of the television series Scrubs was dedicated to him.

By this time, the group had slimmed down to ' Chuck ' and ' Jimmy-Joe Snark III '; who was actually mild-mannered producer and keyboardist Jean-Marc Lederman who had worked with the likes of Fad Gadget, The The and Kid Montana.

It was suggested by Bruno Thériault, an administrator for the Canadian National Institute for the Blind, and designed by Dr. Susan Lederman, a professor of Psychology at Queen's University.

* the prediction that neutrinos associated with electrons are different from those associated with muons ( for experimental verification of this another Nobel prize was awarded to J. Steinberger, L. Lederman and M. Schwartz in 1988 );

William Ralph Lederman, ( January 6, 1916 – July 26, 1992 ) was a Canadian constitutional scholar and the first dean of Queen's University Faculty of Law.

It was discovered by the E288 collaboration, headed by Leon Lederman, at Fermilab in 1977, and was the first particle containing a bottom quark to be discovered because it is the lightest that can be produced without additional massive particles.

The E288 collaboration, a group of physicists led by Leon Lederman who worked on the E288 particle detector, announced that a particle with a mass of about 6. 0 GeV, which decayed into an electron and a positron, was being produced by the Fermilab particle accelerator.

Lederman is also one of the main proponents of the " Physics First " movement.

A former president of the American Physical Society, Lederman also received the National Medal of Science, the Wolf Prize and the Ernest O. Lawrence Medal.

Lederman also received the National Medal of Science ( 1965 ), the Elliott Cresson Medal for Physics ( 1976 ), the Wolf Prize for Physics ( 1982 ) and the Enrico Fermi Award ( 1992 ).

He's also member of Ghost and Writer with Jean-Marc Lederman from The Weathermen

Jay Aston contributed vocals to the cover of Rolling Stones ' " Midnight Mile " on the 2010 album, Small Distortions, by the Belgian music-project La Femme Verte, assembled by ex-Kid Montana member Jean-Marc Lederman.

In October 2010, Lederman participated in the USA Science and Engineering Festival's Lunch with a Laureate program where middle and high school students got to engage in an informal conversation with a Nobel Prize-winning Scientist over a brown bag lunch.

In 1991, Lederman became President of the American Association for the Advancement of Science.

Leon Max Lederman ( born July 15, 1922 ) is an American physicist who, along with Melvin Schwartz and Jack Steinberger, received the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1988 for their joint research on neutrinos.

Lederman graduated from the James Monroe High School in the South Bronx.

This desire, I went on, growing voluble as my conviction was aroused, had mounted at such a rate recently that I now found its realization necessary not only to my physical but also to my spiritual wellbeing.

It was certain now that Jess was in the house, but also, presumably, was Stacey Black.

But it also made him conspicuous to the enemy, if it was the enemy, and he hadn't been spotted already.

He was asking had it been she who left the love note in his sheets ( she also served as maid ) when he saw the Grafin followed by a stately blond girl approaching his table.

This was also a corpse -- a male, judging from the coral arm bands, the tribal scars still discernible on the maggoty face, the painted bone of the warrior caste which still pierced the septum of the rotting nose.

His superiors had also preached this, saying it was the way for eternal honor.

Charles, also fifteen, was tall and skinny, scraggly, with straight black hair like an Indian's and sharp brown eyes.

Although New Orleans was not to learn of it for a spell, she also was a sadist, a nymphomaniac and unobtrusively mad -- the perpetrator of some of the worst crimes against humanity ever committed on American soil.

There was also a dog, a dingo dog.

There was also a long wooden spear and a woomera, a spear-throwing device which gives the spear an enormous velocity and high accuracy.

There was also a boomerang, elaborately carved.

It was also subtly familiar, for it was the odor of the human body, but multiplied innumerable times because of the fact that the aborigines never bathed.

It was to provide a safe and spacious crossing for these caravans, and also to make a pleasance for the city, that Shah Abbas 2, in about 1657 built, of sun-baked brick, tile, and stone, the present bridge.

There was also a lesson, one that has served ever since to keep Americans, in their conflicts with one another, from turning from the ballot to the bullet.

Joseph Jastrow, the younger son of the distinguished rabbi, Marcus Jastrow, was a friendly, round-faced fellow with a little mustache, whose field was psychology, and who was also a punster and a jolly tease.

And just as `` Laurie '' Lawrence was first attracted to bright Jo March, who found him immature by her high standards, and then had to content himself with her younger sister Amy, so Joe Jastrow, who had also been writing Henrietta before he came to Johns Hopkins, had to content himself with her younger sister, pretty Rachel.

she also went to Washington and appealed to Senator George William Norris of Nebraska, the Fighting Liberal, from whose office a sympathetic but cautious harrumphing was heard.

The Indians who came aboard ship to collect the mail also interested her greatly, even if she was suitably shocked, according to the customs of the society in which she had been reared, to find them `` naked, except a piece of cotton cloth wrapped around their middle ''.

He also disliked Runyon, for no good reason other than the fact that the Demon's talent was so marked as to put him well beyond the Hetman's say-so or his supervision.
