Collaborating with Ralph Alpher on "The Origin of Chemical Elements," a later paper listed Hans Bethe among the authors as a joke.
This man's namesake factor is an exponential ratio of energies describing Coulomb barrier penetrability. Independently of Gurney and Condon, he explained alpha decay rates by quantum tunneling and he developed a theory of beta decay with Edward Teller.

FTP, name this Russian- American physicist who theorized the Big Bang?
