Stephen William Hawking,CH,CBE,FRS,FRSA (born 8 January 1942[1]) is a British theoretical physicist,whose world-renowned scientific career spans over 40 years.His books and public appearances have made him an academic celebrity and he is an Honorary Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts,[2] a lifetime member of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences,[3] and in 2009 was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom,the highest civilian award in the United States.[4]
Hawking was the Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at the University of Cambridge for thirty years,taking up the post in 1979 and retiring on 1 October 2009.[5][6] He is also a Fellow of Gonville and Caius College,Cambridge and a Distinguished Research Chair at the Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics in Waterloo,Ontario.[7] He is known for his contributions to the fields of cosmology and quantum gravity,especially in the context of black holes.He has also achieved success with works of popular science in which he discusses his own theories and cosmology in general; these include the runaway best seller A Brief History of Time,which stayed on the British Sunday Times bestsellers list for a record-breaking 237 weeks.[8][9]
Hawking's key scientific works to date have included providing,with Roger Penrose,theorems regarding singularities in the framework of general relativity,and the theoretical prediction that black holes should emit radiation,which is today known as Hawking radiation (or sometimes as Bekenstein-Hawking radiation).[10]
Hawking has a neuro-muscular dystrophy that is related to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS),a condition that has progressed over the years and has left him almost completely paralysed.
史蒂芬·威廉·霍金,CH,CBE,FRS,FRSA（Stephen William Hawking,1942年1月8日－）,英国著名物理学家,在公众评价中,被誉为是继爱因斯坦之后最杰出的理论物理学家之一.他提出宇宙大爆炸自奇点开始,时间由此刻开始,黑洞最终会蒸发,在统一20世纪物理学的两大基础理论——爱因斯坦的相对论和普朗克的量子论方面走出了重要一步.
患有肌肉萎缩性侧索硬化症的他,近乎全身瘫痪,不能发音,但1988年仍出版《时间简史》,至今已出售逾1000万册,成为全球最畅销的科普著作之一.英国剑桥大学于2009年4月20日透露,著名物理学家霍金病得很重.67岁的霍金呼吸系统感染已有数周,并被送往当地一家医院.
