Dicke, RobertHenry
Dicke, RobertHenry (1916–97)Americanphysicist and astronomer. In 1961 he suggested that the gravitational constant varies with time (see
Brans–Dicke Theory). In 1964, with the Canadian-born American physicist Phillip James Edwin Peebles (1935– ) and others, he began to develop a
hot Big Bang theory, independently of G.
Gamow. The theory predicted the existence of the
cosmic microwave background, discovered shortly after by A. A.
Penzias and R. W.
Wilson. He also invented the
Dicke radiometer and
Dicke switch, and in 1957 set out what has become known as the weak
anthropic principle.
