據(jù)英媒報道誓禁，3月14日雅任，英國著名物理學家史蒂芬?霍金去世风范，享年76歲。3.14是圓周率π的前三位沪么，也是著名物理學家愛因斯坦的誕辰之日乌企。而霍金出生的那天，正是物理學先驅伽利略逝世300周年的忌日成玫。大概這就是霍金與物理學的緣分加酵。
霍金出生于英國牛津拳喻，是英國劍橋大學著名物理學家。他21歲時患上肌肉萎縮性側索硬化癥（盧伽雷氏癥）猪腕，自此失去說話能力冗澈，只能依靠手指按動講話器按鈕來表達自己的思想，與外界交流陋葡。但在這種情況下亚亲，他依然完成并發(fā)表了《時間簡史》，深入淺出地向人們介紹宇宙學腐缤，并繼續(xù)進行科學研究捌归。
他的主要研究領域是宇宙論和黑洞，證明了廣義相對論的奇性定理和黑洞面積定理岭粤，提出了黑洞蒸發(fā)現(xiàn)象和無邊界的霍金宇宙模型惜索，對人類科學進步和宇宙探索做出過巨大貢獻。
史蒂芬?霍金能成為最受這一代人愛戴的物理學家之一剃浇，不僅僅因為他學術上的傳奇成就巾兆，也因為他十分幽默，在影視界同樣活躍虎囚。他曾在《生活大爆炸》中客串出演角塑，為了見到霍金教授，謝耳朵不惜帶著兔耳朵淘讥、穿著女仆裝扮成女孩圃伶。在被霍金教授發(fā)現(xiàn)文章中的錯誤時，他直接暈倒在地蒲列。知道霍金教授去世了留攒，他應該會很難過吧。
霍金的著作曾讓不少人驚詫于宇宙的神秘嫉嘀，也曾引領無數(shù)少年踏入物理學的圣殿。他的輪椅太小魄揉，但還好宇宙夠大剪侮。愿他飛向群星，回到屬于自己的浩瀚星辰之中洛退。
下面是摘自他作品和采訪中的名句：
On Intelligence 關于智慧
Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change.
On scientific discoveries 關于科學發(fā)現(xiàn)：
No one undertakes research in physics with the intention of winning a prize. It is the joy of discovering something no one knew before.
Scientists have become the bearers of the torch of discovery in our quest for knowledge.
I wouldn't compare it to sex, but it lasts longer.
Science is beautiful when it makes simple explanations of phenomena or connections between different observations.
On curiosity 關于好奇心：
Look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see, and wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious.
On universe 關于宇宙：
It would not be much of a universe if it wasn't home to the people you love.
On women 關于女性：
While physics and mathematics may tell us how the universe began, they are not much use in predicting human behavior because there are far too many equations to solve. I'm no better than anyone else at understanding what makes people tick, particularly women.
Women. They are a complete mystery.
On God 關于上帝：
God may exist, but science can explain the universe without the need for a creator.
The scientific account is complete. Theology is unnecessary.
