《对玻恩及其学派的系列研究》连载⑧——玻恩对弟子杨立铭研究工作的高度评价

The high evaluation in Born's letters on YANG Li-ming's research work

杨立铭是玻恩培养的第三个中国物理博士,也是他培养的最后一位中国学生.1950年至1951年,玻恩在写给一些重要物理学家(如玻尔、海森伯、费米、魏格纳、约当等人)以及写给一些重要期刊的信函中,高度评价杨立铭当时的研究成果.阅读这些信函,可以感觉到玻恩培养学生的强烈责任心以及那份对中国弟子的欣赏与喜爱.这些以前不为世人所知晓的信函,是中国物理学与世界接轨的宝贵、动人的文献,需要中国物理学史研究者进一步深入研究,需要更多中国物理界人士了解并关注.

YANG Li-ming was the third Chinese doctor supervised by Max Born,and also the last Chinese pupil of Born. From 1950 to 1951,Born wrote many letters to very known physicists,such as Bohr,Heisenberg,Fermi,Wigner,Jordan,and some important periodicals,promoted and gave high evaluation on the research results which were made by YANG Li-ming. One could feel the intense sense of responsibility of Born to his pupil,and his appreciation to the Chinese pupil when one reading these letters carefully. These letters which were not known,are the valuable and moving archives,and they formed a clue which connected Chinese physics to the world. The letters need to be farther researched by our researchers who working on the history of physics,they also need to know and pay more concerns by the society of Chinese physics.
