This biography tells the sometimes romantic, often discouraging but finally optimistic story of a dedicated scientist and educator from a developing country who made important contributions to particle physics, gravitation, cosmology and field theory, and to the advancement of science and of scientific education, in many institutions in Brazil and elsewhere. Drawing on unpublished documents from archives in Brazil and the US as well as private sources, the book traces Tiomno's long life, following his role in the establishment of various research facilities and his tribulations during the Brazilian military dictatorship. It presents a story of progress and setbacks in advancing science in Brazil and beyond, and of the persistence and dedication of a talented physicist who spent his life in search of scientific truth. 000932951 60010 $$aTiomno, Jayme. 000932951 650_0 $$aPhysicists$$zBrazil$$vBiography. 000932951 7001_ $$aTolmasquim, Alfredo Tiomno. 000932951 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z3030410102$$z9783030410100$$w(OCoLC)1136966016 000932951 830_0 $$aSpringer biographies. 000932951 852__ $$bebk 000932951 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-41011-7$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000932951 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:932951$$pGLOBAL_SET 000932951 980__ $$aEBOOK 000932951 980__ $$aBIB 000932951 982__ $$aEbook 000932951 983__ $$aOnline 000932951 994__ $$a92$$bISE
