Bernard Gregory (Bergerac, January 19, 1919 - Élancourt, December 24, 1977) was a prominent French physicist and director-general of CERN. ==Biography== During World War II Gregory was a prisoner of war in a German camp for military officers. After the war he graduated from the École Polytechnique and École Nationale Supérieure des Mines de Paris, then went to the United States to study fundamental particle interactions in high-energy cosmic rays. After earning his Ph.D. in the U.S., Gregory returned to France, where he was soon made deputy director of the École Polytechnique physics lab organized in 1936 by Louis Leprince-Ringuet. Here he worked with a number of physicists including Charles Peyrou, Jean Crussard, André Lagarrigue, and later André Astier. In 1958 Gregory was appointed professor of physics at the Polytechnique. He was Directorate Member for Research at CERN from 1964 to 1965. From 1966 to 1970 he was Director General of CERN. At CERN he supervised most of the construction of the world's first hadron collider, the Intersecting Storage Rings (ISR). Following his mandate as CERN Director-General, Gregory returned to the Polytechnique laboratory in Paris. Soon he became director-general of the National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS). In 1975 he took charge of the General Delegation for Scientific and Technical Research (DGRST). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bernard Gregory」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
