Tang Xiaowei

Tang Xiaowei (Chinese: 唐孝威; pinyin: Tang Xiao Wei) ( October 1931 - ) is a Chinese physicist who has made great contribution to the applied physics department. Now he is a academician in Institute of High Energy Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences and worked in Zhejiang University as a professor and doctor tutor.

Life and Education

He was born in Wuxi, Jiangsu Province when it is in the October, 1931. As a student, he graduated from the Department of Physics in Tsinghua University. After graduation, he worked at many institutes for nuclear research. At present, he is a professor and doctor tutor in ZheJiang University. Besides, he is also an adjunct professor of Peking University and University of Science and Technology China. His researches generally concern the nuclear physics and the high-energy experimental physics. He made some great achievements in the cross-field between physics and other subjects such as biology, medical science and neurobiology. In 1979, he was awarded by the Chinese government as a Labor Example for China. As he was so authoritative in his field, he was elected as a delegate to the 12th and 13th National Congress of China Communist Party. <The experimental methods for particle physics> of which he is the chief editor was highly awarded in 1983.

Career

His field in physics is mainly about High Energy and application to the nuclear technology. In my opinion, his most famous contribute to China is that he joined in the research of China’s first atom bomb. More specifically, he was engaged in the experiment of atom bomb’s ignition. Working with his group, he also devoted himself to the measurement of electro-magnetic cascade shower and the study of particle detector. During his career as a Ph.D tutor, he has instructed many outstanding scholars for the physics department of China.
