Philip Warren Anderson ( Indianapolis , 13 as December as 1923 – United States, 29 as March as 2020 ) was an American physicist. Doctor of Physics from Harvard University in 1949, he was one of the most prolific and wide-ranging physicists of recent times.
In 1977, he won the Nobel Prize in Physics for his research on the properties of semiconductors of solid non-crystalline materials and the interatomic effects that determine the magnetic properties of metals and alloys, received, together with Nevill F. Mott and John H. Van Vleck , the Nobel Prize in Physics . His work favored advances in laser techniques and in obtaining modern glasses.

Trajectory
After completing his studies, he worked at Bell Labs with many of the leading electronic figures of the time, Bill Shockley , John Bardeen , Charles Kittel , Conyers Herring , Gregory Wannier , Larry Walker , John Richardson , etc.
He spent one year ( 1953 ) as a Fulbright at Kyoto University, he also passed through the Cavendish laboratory at Cambridge University and later through Princeton, until 1984 .
His work covers an innumerable group of subjects : ferromagnetism , magnetic resonance , superconductivity , study of semiconductors , quantum liquids , Kondo effect , spin glasses , neutron stars , superfluids , amorphous materials . He was one of the founders of contemporary solid state physics.
