Guy de Téramond Peralta
Costa Rican-French physicist / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Guy de Téramond Peralta is a Costa Rican-French theoretical physicist. His research has been focused on nuclear and high energy physics. Following the quest for a wave equation similar to the Schrödinger equation in atomic physics, he introduced with Stanley Brodsky a nonperturbative first approximation to quantum chromodynamics to describe hadronic structure, known as light front holography.[1] This analytic approach to the strong interactions is based on light front quantization and the AdS/CFT correspondence.[2][3] He is also known for his role in the pioneering interconnections in Costa Rica and the Central American region to the Internet.[4] In 2023, de Téramond was inducted into the Internet Hall of Fame by the Internet Society.[5]
