September 1934 in Bearsden, Schottland; † 6. April 2019 in Cambridge [1]) war ein britischer theoretischer Physiker und Gewinner des Wolf-Preises. 2016 erhielt er (zusammen mit F. Duncan M. Haldane und J. Michael Kosterlitz) für Forschungen zur Theorie topologischer Phasen der Materie den Nobelpreis für Physik .
David James Thouless FRS (/ ˈ θ aʊ l ɛ s /; 21 September 1934 – 6 April 2019) was a British condensed-matter physicist. He was the winner of the 1990 Wolf Prize and a laureate of the 2016 Nobel Prize for physics along with F. Duncan M. Haldane and J. Michael Kosterlitz for theoretical discoveries of topological phase ...

David J. Thouless Biographical The Name. The name Thouless is very rare. Fewer than 150 people with the name live in Britain, almost all of whom are connected to Norwich. This is because it is a relatively new spelling of an old name spelt variously Thule ...
6. Apr. 2019 · David J. Thouless. The Nobel Prize in Physics 2016. Born: 21 September 1934, Bearsden, United Kingdom. Died: 6 April 2019, Cambridge, United Kingdom. Affiliation at the time of the award: University of Washington, Seattle, WA, USA. Prize motivation: “for theoretical discoveries of topological phase transitions and topological phases of matter”
David Thouless was one of the leading theoretical condensed matter physicists of his generation. He pointed out (with Kosterlitz) that two-dimensional or quasi-two-dimensional physical systems undergo a completely novel type of phase transition; he developed a highly original approach to the theory of localization of electrons in disordered solids;
31. Mai 2019 · David James Thouless, 2016 Nobel laureate and emeritus professor of Physics at the University of Washington, passed away on 6 April 2019 at age 84. One of the most influential condensed matter physicists of his generation, David identified topology as the unifying thread in his research, which was of crucial importance to the current ...
