Albert Messiah (23 September 1921, Nice – 17 April 2013, Paris) was a French physicist. He studied at the Ecole Polytechnique.He spent the Second World War in the Free France forces: he embarked on 22 June 1940 at Saint-Jean-de-Luz for England and participated in the Battle of Dakar with Charles de Gaulle in September 1940. He joined the Free French Forces in Chad, and the 2nd Armored Division in September 1944, and participated in the assault of Hitler's Eagle's nest at Berchtesgaden in 1945.

Im Jahre 1947 promovierte er in Paris an der École polytechnique. Zurück in Frankreich unterrichtete er Quantenmechanik nach modernen Methoden an der Universität Paris-Süd (Universität Paris 11) in Orsay und forschte unter anderem in Kernphysik für das neu gegründete Commissariat à l’énergie atomique (CEA) in Saclay (Anfang der 1950er Jahre zum Beispiel über Physik der Neutronendiffusion). Er wurde dort 1965 zum Chef du département de physique ernannt und war seit 1972 Directeur de la Physique des CEA. Messiah war Professor an der Universität Pierre und Marie Curie (Universität Paris VI). Messiah ist bekannt für sein zweibändiges Quantenmechanik-Lehrbuch, zuerst 1959 auf Französisch erschienen. Es wurde auch ins Deutsche übersetzt und ist seit seinem Erscheinen eines der Standard-Lehrbücher der Quantenmechanik. Er war Offizier (1992) und ab 2012 Kommandeur der Ehrenlegion, Offizier des Ordre du Mérite und Kommandeur der Palmes académiques. (de)
  • Albert Messiah (23 September 1921, Nice – 17 April 2013, Paris) was a French physicist. He studied at the Ecole Polytechnique.He spent the Second World War in the Free France forces: he embarked on 22 June 1940 at Saint-Jean-de-Luz for England and participated in the Battle of Dakar with Charles de Gaulle in September 1940. He joined the Free French Forces in Chad, and the 2nd Armored Division in September 1944, and participated in the assault of Hitler's Eagle's nest at Berchtesgaden in 1945. As a French Jew who escaped France to fight in the Free French Army of de Gaulle, he was awarded a grant to study and work at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, New Jersey in the US. The seminars at the Institute were incomprehensible to Messiah who had only a high-school education in physics, and he became depressed to the extent that he considered abandoning his plans to become a physicist. Fortunately he met Robert Marshak at a meeting of the American Physical Society in Washington, DC. Marshak suggested that Messiah come to the University of Rochester and get a US PhD in physics. He returned to France and introduced the first general courses of quantum mechanics in France, at the University of Orsay and joined the newly created atomic energy agency, the Commissariat à l'énergie atomique (CEA) where he stayed until the end of his career. Messiah collaborated with Oscar W. Greenberg on identical particle statistics other than bosons or fermions. This work led directly to Greenberg's suggestion of parastatistics of order 3 for quarks, which was the first suggestion that quarks carry a hidden three-valued charge, now colloquially called "color charge." His classic textbook on quantum mechanics Mecanique Quantique (Dunod 1959), translated as Quantum Mechanics has trained generations of French and world physicists. He was the director of the Physics Division at the CEA and professor at the Pierre and Marie Curie University.He was honored as Commandeur de la Légion d'honneur of France (2012). (en)
