Splitting between Yang and Lee

Are there some discords between Chen-Ning Franklin Yang and Tsung-Dao Lee? — HenryLi (Talk) 03:42, 18 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Language clean-up

This article needs a serious working over. Someone needs to address subject--verb agreement, missing articles, and the repetitious use of Lee's name (especially at the start of every sentence in certain paragraphs). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.107.13.170 (talk) 17:18, 29 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Age at time of Nobel

The article says that "In 1957, Lee, at the age of 30, won the Nobel Prize in Physics...." Other sources say he was 31. Lee was 30 when he was announced as the winner in October of 1957 but had turned 31 by the time he received the prize in December. I agree with the article's statement but I want to clarify the point in case others are curious. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.160.145.59 (talk) 20:47, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Question about the "Known For" list

The list seems to be in a bit of a random order right now: "Kinoshita-Lee-Nauenberg theorem * Non-topological solitons * Lee-Yang theorem * Parity violation" As a non-physicist, I would have a hard time ordering those from most to least important, or from earliest to latest. I propose putting the list into alphabetical order, something that is (I hope) obvious to a general reader. Feel free to revert me if there is a standardized reason for some other order.

I think your choice is fine. I have just added a contribution that was properly cited in Chen-Ning Yang article but not here even if it obviously should.--Pra1998 (talk) 11:25, 20 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
