"All of us, are truly and literally a little bit of stardust." - William Fowler (1911-1995)
+-------------------------------------------------------+
William Fowler US astrophysicist. In 1983 he and Subrahmanyan Chandrasckhar were awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics for their work on the life cycle of stars and the origin of chemical elements. Fowler concentrated on research into the abundance of helium in the universe. Taking into account the light elements, and considering the build-up of heavier elements, Fowler along with Hoyle and Wagoner was able to calculate the helium abundance in the universe to 1%.
