核科学百年的重大发现与核技术应用对人类进步与社会发展产生了深远的影响 .2 0世纪 2 0年代以来 ,中国一批批有志青年抱着“科学救国”、“教育救国”的强烈愿望 ,奔赴西欧、北美 ,学习科学、攻读物理 .他们在世界物理名师的指导下 ,发挥了中华儿女的聪明才智 ,在原子核科学研究方面取得许多重要成就和发现 ,为核科学发展做出了重要贡献 .文章着重介绍这一批老一代物理学家在百年核科学发展中所做出的重要贡献和历史功绩 .

The great discoveries and applications of nuclear sci ence have had tremendous impact on the progress and development of mankind over the last 100 years. In the 1920′s to 1940′s, many young Chinese who yearned to sav e the country through science and education went to west Europe and north Americ a to study science, including physics.
