The Chinese-American scientist Tsung-Dao Lee, who won the Nobel Prize in physics, has died at the age of 98 in San Francisco, USA.
The Chinese channel (CGTN) reported on Monday that Tsung-Dao Lee was famous for his research on the theory of parity conservation in physics.
Tsung-Dao Lee won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1957, jointly with scientist Chen Ning Yang, for proving that the theory of parity conservation, a fundamental rule in nuclear physics, is not correct in some cases.
It is noteworthy that Tsung-Dao Lee was born in 1926 in the Chinese city of Shanghai, and studied at Chinese universities, and obtained a doctorate degree from the University of Chicago in the United States in 1950.
