Most famous for his relavistic formulation of quantum mechanics, for which he won the 1933 Nobel Prize with Schrodinger. His equation includes the essential particle property of spin, predicted the existence of anti-matter, and pair production and annihilation. Appointed Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge in 1932, which he held for 37 years. His _The Principles of Quantum Mechanics_ was a standard textbook in the subject.

| I'd like to see a page (or make it more visible if it exists) about what exactly we're computing. Ie. describe how the data from the interferometer at LIGO is processed to look for astronomical objects. |
