Timeline

1878

His father was the physicist Raffaele Augusto Occhialini (1878–1951), a pioneer in the fields of spectroscopy and electronics theory.

1907

Giuseppe Paolo Stanislao "Beppo" Occhialini ForMemRS (5 December 1907 – 30 December 1993) was an Italian physicist who contributed to the discovery of the pion or pi-meson decay in 1947 with César Lattes and Cecil Frank Powell, the latter winning the Nobel Prize in Physics for this work.

At the time of this discovery, they were all working at the H. H. Wills Laboratory of the University of Bristol.

1929

Giuseppe Paolo Stanislao Occhialini graduated at Florence in 1929.

1932

In 1932, he collaborated in the discovery of the positron in cosmic rays at the Cavendish Laboratory of Cambridge, under the leadership of Patrick Blackett, using cloud chambers.

1934

He returned in Italy in 1934, where he suffered from the political climate generated by fascism.

1937

Thus, from 1937 to 1944, following an invitation by Gleb Wataghin, he worked at the Institute of Physics of the University of São Paulo, in Brazil.

1944

In 1944 he returned to England, working at the Wills Physics Laboratory in Bristol, where he studied cosmic rays.

1947

In 1947, while in Bristol, he contributed to the discovery of the pion or pi-meson decay in collaboration with César Lattes, Cecil Frank Powell and Hugh Muirhead.

The discovery was made using the technology of the tracks on specialized photographic emulsions.

1950

Powell won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1950, in large part for this work.

He returned to Italy in 1950, teaching first in Genoa and then in the physics department at the University of Milan in 1952.

1954

He was a protagonist in cosmic ray research with the nuclear utilization of photographic emulsions exposed to high energy cosmic radiation, work which culminated in 1954 with the European G-Stack collaboration, that focused on the decay products of the kaons.

Later on with the coming of particle accelerators, Occhialini explored that new field of research.

He also made outstanding contributions to space physics, importantly contributing to the foundation of the European Space Agency.

Beppo Occhialini was an avid mountain climber.

During WW II, staying in Brazil, then a country hostile to Italy, he became an authorized alpine guide in the Parque Nacional do Itatiaia, where there is a peak named "Pico Occhialini".

1996

The X-ray satellite SAX was named BeppoSAX in his honour after its launch in 1996.
