Bethe being Ph.D advisor

This says "He was a Ph.D. student of Hans Bethe". Is that working sufficient to support the claim that Bethe was his doctoral advisor? -- Finlay McWalter··–·Talk 00:13, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Also this Seattle Times story and Thouless himself say his Ph.D was "under Hans Bethe". But I don't know if that working means that Bethe was head of the research group he was in, or if it actually means Bethe was his advisor. -- Finlay McWalter··–·Talk 00:22, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
