Italian nuclear physicist (in the United States after 1939) who worked on artificial radioactivity caused by neutron bombardment and who headed the group that in 1942 produced the first controlled nuclear reaction (1901-1954)

Back in 1950, the Nobel prize-winning physicist Enrico Fermi was having lunch with friends.

早在1950年，诺贝尔奖获得者恩里克·费尔米正与他的朋友吃午餐。

The physicist Enrico Fermi famously asked why no extra-terrestrials have shown up on Earth when there are likely to be so many solar systems where life could have evolved.

物理学家恩里克·费米曾提出一个着名的问题：既然宇宙中有着海量的恒星系，其中有条件演化出生命的也为数不少，然而为什么到目前止还没有任何一个地外文明向地球人展示它们的存在？

Even Enrico Fermi apparently did not bother to read Hasen?hrl「s papers properly before concluding wrongly that the discrepant 3/4 prefactor was due to the electron self-energy identified by Abraham.

就连恩里科·费米显然也没有下功夫好好拜读哈泽内尔的着作，才会错误地将3／4前因数的误差归咎于亚伯拉罕的电子自能。

During the second world war, the physicist Enrico Fermi asked General Leslie Groves of the US Army how many generals might be called 「great」 and why.

二战期间，物理学家恩里科·费米（Enrico Fermi ）曾询问美国陆军将军莱斯利·格罗夫斯（LeslieGroves），有多少将军可以称得上「伟大」，衡量的标準又是什么。

1942 - Manhattan Project: A team led by Enrico Fermi initiate the first self-sustaining nuclear chain reaction.

1942年曼哈顿计划：一支由恩里科·费尔米率领下的小组启动了第一条自给核反应链。

Thee riddle is known as a Fermi problem, named after the physicist Enrico Fermi who was known for his ability to make good calculations with very little information or even none.

这类谜题被称为吀「费米问题」，命名来自物理学家恩里科·费米，他之所以声名远扬是因为他能够在少量的给定信息甚至没有信息的情况下进行运算。

There is a quote attributed to Enrico Fermi on what characteristics were common to Nobel Prize winners: 「I can」t think of a single one. Not even intelligence.」

Enrico Fermi有句关于什么是诺奖得主的普遍特征的名言是这么说的：「我一个也想不出，甚至连聪明都算不进去。」

So Enrico Fermi called them 「a little neutron,」 in Italian is neutrino.

因此，恩里科·费米把它们叫做‘小中子’，在意大利语中就是中微子的意思。
