Oliver Penrose
Oliver Penrose (born 1929) is a British theoretical physicist.〔("Notes" ), ''The rainbow and the worm: the physics of organisms'' by Mae-Wan Ho, World Scientific, 1998, Pg. 77〕
He is the son of the scientist Lionel Penrose, brother of the mathematical physicist Roger Penrose, and brother of chess master Jonathan Penrose.〔(''Image processing III: mathematical methods, algorithms and applications'' by Jonathan M. Blackledge and Martin J. Turner, Horwood Publishing, 2001, Pg. 2 )〕〔("The Mandelbrot Set" ), ''Why Beliefs Matter: Reflections on the Nature of Science'' by E. Brian Davies, Oxford University Press, 2010, Pg. 119, ISBN 0191591564〕 He was associated with the Open University for seventeen years and was a Professor of Mathematics at Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh from 1986 until his retirement in 1994. He holds the title of Professor Emeritus at Heriot-Watt, and remains active in research there. His areas of interest include statistical mechanics,〔("Papers dedicated to Oliver Penrose on the occasion of his 65th birthday" ), Volume 77, Issues 1–2 of ''Journal of Statistical Physics''〕 phase transitions in metals and physical chemistry of surfactants. He is particularly known for the concept of off-diagonal long-range order, which is central to our present-day understanding of superfluids and superconductors. Other more abstract topics in which he has worked include understanding the physical basis for the direction of time and interpretations of quantum mechanics.〔("Quantum Mechanics and Real Events" ), ''Quantum chaos—quantum measurement'' by Predrag Cvitanović, Ian Percival, Andreas Wirzba and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. Scientific Affairs Division, Springer, 1992, Pg. 257〕〔("Maxwell's demon 2: entropy, classical and quantum information, computing" ) by Harvey S. Leff and Andrew F. Rex, CRC Press, 2003〕〔("The physical review—the first hundred years:" ) a selection of seminal papers and commentaries, Volume 1 by H. Henry Stroke, Springer, 1995〕
