He was survived by his wife, Barbara of Badolino, Pilawa coat of arms, and four sons: Zawisza, Jan ( killed at the battle of Chojnice ), Marcin and Stanislaw ( the last two killed at the battle of Varna ); and a daughter, probably also named Barbara.

He was married to Anna Sienienska and had eight children: Hieronim Lanckoronski, Przeclaw Lanckoronski, Franciszek Stanislaw Lanckoronski, Jan Lanckoronski, Zbigniew Lanckoronski, Mikolaj Lanckoronski, Marcin Lanckoronski and Joanna Lanckoronska.

But Fermi also participated in preliminary work on the hydrogen bomb at Los Alamos as a consultant, and along with Stanislaw Ulam, calculated that the amount of tritium needed for Edward Teller's model of a thermonuclear weapon would be prohibitive, and a fusion reaction could not be assured to propagate even with this large quantity of tritium.

On August 20, 1939, in Gdynia, Józef Ulam, along with his brother Szymon, put his two sons, Stanislaw and 17 year old Adam, on a ship headed for America.

With his pivotal role in the development of thermonuclear weapons, Stanislaw Ulam changed the world.

In 1985, CNLS initiated the Stanislaw M. Ulam Distinguished Scholar program, which provides a prestigious annual award that enables a noted scientist to spend a year carrying out research at Los Alamos.

While Kuratowski associated with many of the scholars of the Lwów School of Mathematics, such as Stefan Banach and Stanislaw Ulam, and the circle of mathematicians based around the Scottish Café he kept close connections with Warsaw.

The specific term " singularity " as a description for a phenomenon of technological acceleration causing an eventual unpredictable outcome in society was coined by mathematician and physicist Stanislaw Ulam as early as 1958, when he wrote of a conversation with John von Neumann concerning the " ever accelerating progress of technology and changes in the mode of human life, which gives the appearance of approaching some essential singularity in the history of the race beyond which human affairs, as we know them, could not continue.

The concept was originally discovered in the 1940s by Stanislaw Ulam and John von Neumann while they were contemporaries at Los Alamos National Laboratory.

The Monte Carlo method was coined in the 1940s by John von Neumann, Stanislaw Ulam and Nicholas Metropolis, while they were working on nuclear weapon projects ( Manhattan Project ) in the Los Alamos National Laboratory.

It was discovered by the mathematician Stanislaw Ulam in 1963, while he was doodling during the presentation of a " long and very boring paper " at a scientific meeting.
