Life is full of events and the mysterious disappearance of a physical genius

The young and unpopular physicist later became one of the most mysterious and controversial names during the twentieth century. The person who, before the events of society, in a sudden turn became a genius in a field he did not want.

In the mid-1930s, when the Great Depression occurred in the West, it seemed that the whole world was in a terrible financial storm. International trade has dropped by nearly 30% and the industry has been shaken with nearly 30 million people unemployed around the world in 1932. At this time, fascism thrives in Germany, Adolf Hitler and the Nazis came to power, restored German economic power, and a war was threatening all Europe.

Dictators who understand the importance of scientific developments will benefit any country. During the 1930s, large countries all invested in the study of physics, focusing primarily on radioactivity and types. In 1932, researchers Frédéric Joliot and Irène Joliot-Curie recorded the existence of a new and unusual particle, suspecting it could be evidence of mysterious gamma rays. However, this discovery has been explained differently by a young and unpopular physicist who later became one of the most mysterious and controversial names in science. during the twentieth century.

Ettore Majorana was born in Catania, Sicily, and from a very young age he was passionate about research, especially in physics. In his early teens, Majorana joined the "Via Panisperna boys" group by Enrico Fermi, a group of young researchers who recorded the first discovery of a neutron, including 1-10 eV energy. This famous discovery led to the development of nuclear reactors, which later helped create atomic bombs. In the face of social events, in a sudden turn, the young scientist became a genius in a field he did not want.

And later, sadly, despite many outstanding achievements in science, Majorana is best known outside of his scientific achievements. He is remembered and reminded most because of the strange circumstances related to the mysterious disappearance.

Disappearance

At the time of being a talented scientist at the Naples Institute of Physics, Majorana decided to leave abruptly, at first thought, he returned to his homeland to meet people in the family, but the family He didn't know where Majorana went. With this sudden departure, Majorana left a message for Antonio Carrelli, director of the Naples Institute of Physics that he "felt sad, helpless, and unable to find a way out .".

The message in Majorana's message led to the idea that he had committed suicide. However, the police later discovered Majorana bought a train ticket back to Naples, but no one found him in Naples. Colleagues at the Naples Institute of Physics still argue that talented physicists are unhappy with their work and have joined a monastery, or have committed suicide.

Although there are many theories until the 2000s with countless conjectures and clues regarding Majorana's disappearance, his disappearance remains completely mysterious. However, in 2008, a strange event led a breakthrough in the incident when a person called the Italian television program Chi l'ha visto (The person who saw him) , telling him that he has a photo of the man who was supposed to be Majorana. This information convinced Rome's Department of Justice to begin its own investigation of the case, in which Carabinieri (Italian military police) analyzed the picture and discovered similarities in the photo taken around the year. 1955 in Argentina with Ettore Majorana's previous photos.

Finally, in February 2015, the Office of the Rome Ministry of Justice issued an official statement, saying that Majorana was indeed still alive after disappearing from Naples, and he moved to hide in South America, where he lived until his death."Ettore Majorana, a great physicist ranked jointly with characters like Newton and Einstein, mysteriously disappeared in 1938, still alive in the period 1955-1959 in Venezuela's city of n." - the final message of the Office of the Rome Ministry of Justice has given such information.

However, the question is why does this physicist leave his job and his family to live in seclusion in another part of the world? Some family members, as well as researchers, believe that Majorana has evaded, afraid of moral and psychological consequences for her work, helping to create nuclear weapons, making him Feeling helpless with yourself leads to negative decisions.
