Tony Skyrme
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Tony Hilton Royle Skyrme (/skɜːrm/; 5 December 1922, Lewisham – 25 June 1987) was a British physicist. He first proposed modeling the effective interaction between nucleons in nuclei by a zero-range potential,[1] an idea still widely used today in nuclear structure[2] and in equation of state for neutron stars.[3] However, he is best known for formulating the first topological soliton to model a particle, the skyrmion.[4] Some of his most important work can be found in selected papers.[5] Skyrme was awarded the Hughes Medal by the Royal Society in 1985.
