Frank Wilczek [5.18.21] It came to me, viscerally, that the intricate calculations I'd done using pen and paper (and wastebasket) might somehow describe this entirely different realm of existencenamely, a physical world of particles, tracks, and electronic signals, created by the kind of machinery I was looking at. 66.

In Item 58 we showed how supersym- metric models based on the group SO(10) (or, of course, a larger group) contain a very natural mechanism for lifting the troublesome Higgs color triplet to very high mass, leaving the doublet behind. 43, 816 (1979). Especially original is the discussion of monopole-dipole forces, which I believe remains an important subject for experimental investigation. He was raised Catholic.
