Classical And Theoretical Physicists, 1900 to 1949

This child group of Classical And Theoretical Physics collects members of that broader group whose own recorded description places their first mentioned year, most often a birth year, in 1900 through 1949: the generation that built and inherited the early twentieth century revolution in physics, the largest of this parent group's three era children given how much of the discipline's population was born or first active in this half-century. It is kept apart from this parent group's other two children purely by era, the axis the report's own second-level guidance suggests for an oversized general-physicist group.
