Gell-Mann (Murray Gell-Mann)

Murray Gell-Mann was a Nobel Prize-winning physicist known for discovering the building blocks of matter called quarks, which make up protons and neutrons. He developed the concept of "strangeness" to classify particles, and his work helped create the Standard Model of particle physics — a framework explaining the fundamental particles and forces of the universe. Gell-Mann’s research advanced our understanding of how matter behaves at the smallest scales, shaping modern physics.
