Theodore Brewster "Ted" Taylor (1925-2004) was an American theoretical physicist, specifically concerning nuclear energy. His higher education included a PhD from Cornell University in theoretical physics. His most noteworthy contributions to the field of nuclear weaponry were his small bomb developments at the Los Alamos Laboratory in New Mexico. Although Taylor is not widely known to the general public, he is credited with numerous landmarks in fission nuclear weaponry development, including having developed the smallest, most powerful, and most efficient fission weapons ever tested by the US. Though Taylor was not considered a brilliant physicist from a calculative viewpoint, his vision and creativity allowed him to thrive in the field. The later part of Taylor's career was focused on n

  • Theodore Brewster Taylor (Ted Taylor) (* 11. Juli 1925 in Mexiko-Stadt; † 28. Oktober 2004 in Silver Spring, Maryland) war ein US-amerikanischer Physiker. Er stammte aus einer Familie von Missionaren, und der Vater leitete in Mexiko-Stadt den Christlichen Verein Junger Männer (YMCA). Schon als Knabe experimentierte er intensiv mit einem Chemiebaukasten. 1945 machte er seinen Bachelor-Abschluss am California Institute of Technology, an dem er danach an seiner Promotion arbeitete. Nachdem er wegen mangelnder Konzentration durch die Promotionsprüfung gefallen war (später erhielt er nach seinem Einsatz bei der Navy an der Cornell University doch noch die Promotion) ging er ab 1949 an das Los Alamos National Laboratory und entwickelte er sich zum besten Designer für Atomwaffen.
