"The Onion Madonna”

Maria Goeppert Mayer- the first woman to win Nobel Prize (1963) in theoretical physics for nuclear shell model namely the electron configuration 2,8,8 which is an intergral part of chemisty syllabus for high school students.

In 1903, the legendary woman won the Nobel Prize for physics and then it took exactly 60 years for a to receive the award again. This woman's works made it possible to understand how the nucleus of atoms works. Physicist called her “The Onion Madonna”. That woman is our (second) "scientist of the day" today.

In 1924, she entered the University of , where at first intending to study . But after attending ’s quantum mechanics seminar, she switched her focus to physics. She completed her Ph.D. in 1930, with a thesis on .

While making a list of isotope abundances, it became clear to Mayer that nuclei with ...
