Abstract

[That Wolfgang Pauli was one of the greatest theoretical physicists of the twentieth century is a well-known fact: his discoveries—in particular, the famous exclusion principle (which earned him the Nobel Prize in 1945) and the hypothesis of the existence of the neutrino—are the basis of our current understanding of matter and among the most important developments in the field of elementary particles, astrophysics and cosmology. He was a decidedly colorful character, so much so that Oppenheimer once said that Pauli was the only person he knew who was equal to his own caricature. He was renowned not only for his great scientific acumen, but also for his sarcastic and relentlessly critical spirit, the source of innumerable anecdotes, among other things.]
