Yang Chen-Ning or Chen-Ning Yang (Chinese: 杨振宁; pinyin: Yáng Zhènníng; born 1 October 1922), also known as C. N. Yang or by the English name Frank Yang, is a Chinese theoretical physicist who made significant contributions to statistical mechanics, integrable systems, gauge theory, and both particle physics and condensed matter physics.
Chen Ning Yang, byname Frank Yang, (born September 22, 1922, Hofei, Anhwei, China), Chinese-born American theoretical physicist whose research with Tsung-Dao Lee showed that parity —the symmetry between physical phenomena occurring in right-handed and left-handed coordinate systems—is violated when certain elementary particles decay.
Biographical. C hen Ning Yang was born on September 22, 1922, in Hofei, Anwhei, China, the first of five children of Ke Chuan Yang and Meng Hwa Loh Yang. He is also known as Frank or Franklin.

Chen Ning Yang, known as Frank Yang, (born Sept. 22, 1922, Hofei, Anhwei, China), Chinese-born U.S. theoretical physicist. He immigrated to the U.S. in 1945 and studied with Edward Teller at the University of Chicago. He showed that parity is violated when elementary particles decay.
Chen-Ning Franklin Yang (born October 1, 1922), also known as Yang Zhenning, is a Chinese-born American physicist and mathematician. He works on statistical mechanics and particle physics. Yang and Tsung-dao Lee received the 1957 Nobel prize in physics. This was for their work on parity nonconservation of weak interaction.
Chen-Ning Franklin Yang was born on September 22, 1922 in the city of Hefei, China. His family moved to Beijing when his father, Wu-Chih, became a Professor of Mathematics at Tsinghua University. His mother, Meng-hua, was a housewife. Yang and his family fled from Beijing in 1937 when Japan invaded China.
Elementary Particles Chen Ning Yang. Dr. Yang reviews the history of our knowledge of the elementary particles, and shows how theory and experiment interact to extend human knowledge. Originally published in 1961.
