Walther Bothe

1891–1957

View full profile →

Walther Bothe (1891–1957) was a German physicist and mathematician who pioneered the coincidence method for detecting subatomic particles, earning the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1954. His work bridged experimental physics and mathematical rigor, particularly in quantum mechanics and nuclear physics, and he maintained a critical stance toward purely theoretical speculation without empirical grounding.
