| has gloss | eng: C. N. Yang Institute of Theoretical Physics (CNYITP) is a research center at Stony Brook University. In 1965, it was the vision of then University President J. S. Toll and Physics Department chair T. A. Pond to create an Institute for Theoretical Physics and invite the famous physicist Chen Ning Yang from Institute for Advanced Study to serve as its director with the Albert Einstein Professorship of Physics. While the center is often referred to as "YITP", this can be confusing as YITP also stands for Yukawa Institute for Theoretical Physics in Japan. |
