and professor emeritus of physics at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, N.J. His research has focused not only on the internal physics of stars and the interactions of subatomic particle beams but also on the origin of life in the

God with the laws of physics. Nobel laureate Leon Lederman, for example, has made a link between God and a subatomic particle known as the Higgs boson . Lederman has suggested that when physicists find this particle in their accelerators it

as a theoretical elementary particle physicist. From 1968 to 1979 he was Professor of Mathematical Physics in the University of Cambridge, before resigning to train for the ministry of the Church of England. He is an Anglican priest and a

Wave-Particle Duality The photo-electric effect showed that under certain circumstances light can behave in a particle-like manner rather than its usual wave-like manner. The next step in the development of a quantum view of the world
