Yuri Golfand
Physicist (1922-1994) · Israel · On the map · Scientists · Died at 72
Yuri Abramovich Golfand was a Russian and Israeli physicist known, in particular, for his 1971 paper where they proposed supersymmetry between bosonic and fermionic particles by extending the Poincaré algebra with anticommuting spinor generators. The algebra they constructed is also called a super-Poincaré algebra.

In the very same paper they presented the first four-dimensional supersymmetric gauge field theory - supersymmetric quantum electrodynamics with the mass term of the photon/photino fields, plus two chiral matter supermultiplets.
