Val Logsdon Fitch (March 10, 1923 – February 5, 2015) was an American nuclear physicist who, with co-researcher James Cronin, was awarded the 1980 Nobel Prize in Physics for a 1964 experiment using the Alternating Gradient Synchrotron at Brookhaven National Laboratory that proved that certain subatomic reactions do not adhere to ...
Val Logsdon Fitch (Merriman, 10 de março de 1923 – Princeton, 5 de fevereiro de 2015) foi um físico nuclear estadunidense que, com a colaboração de James Cronin, Fitch e o seu colega de pesquisa, James Watson Cronin, foram laureados em 1980 com o Nobel da Física, por uma experiência realizada em 1964, provando que algumas ...
Val Logsdon Fitch was an American particle physicist who was corecipient, with James Watson Cronin, of the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1980 for experiments conducted in 1964 that disproved the long-held theory that particle interaction should be indifferent to the direction of time.

Val Logsdon Fitch received the 1980 physics prize with James Cronin for proving in a 1964 experiment that some subatomic reactions do not adhere to basic symmetry principles, suggesting that reversing the direction of time would not precisely reverse the course of certain reactions of subatomic particles. By examining the decay of kaons they ...
