Physicists are employed by universities as professors, lecturers, researchers, and by laboratories in industry.
However, many people who have trained as physicists use their skills in other parts of the economy, in particular in computing and finance.
Johannes Georg Bednorz -(born May 16, 1950) is a German physicist who, along with Karl Alex Muller, was awarded the 1987 Nobel Prize for Physics for their joint discovery of superconductivity in certain substances at temperatures higher than had previously been thought attainable.

Physicists study a wide range of physical phenomena spanning all length scales: from the sub-atomic particles from which all ordinary matter is made (particle physics) to the behavior of the material Universe as a whole (cosmology).
Many people who are trained as physicists, however, use their skills in other parts of the economy, in particular in engineering, computing, and finance.
Some physicists take up careers where their knowledge of physics can be combined with further training in other disciplines, such as patent attorney in industry or private practice.

 Physicist
A physicist is a scientist trained in physics.
Physicists are employed by universities as professors, by laboratories as researchers[?], and a substantial number can be found in industry.
There are no physicists in the hottest parts of Hell, because the existence of a 'hottest part' implies a temperature difference, and any marginally competent physicist would immediately use this to run a heat engine and make some other part of Hell comfortably cool.

 Sharon Leiter - A to Z of Physicists
Culturally inclusive and spanning the whole range of physicists from ancient times to the present day, it will appeal to readers interested in the history of physics or the significant aspects of the personal and professional lives of important physicists.
A to Z of Physicists is an up-to-date biographical dictionary containing profiles of 150 of the most illustrious figures in the history of physics.
Regretfully, we have omitted physicists whose work is well-established, advocates of promising theories that have yet to be accepted by the physics community, as well as physicists whose careers were not marked by a lasting discovery, but whose dedication to research and teaching created the vital medium out of which such discoveries emerge.

 Publicity and Outreach // Journals of The American Physical Society
Below is a list of American Physical Society (APS) and American Institute of Physics (AIP) publications that describe selected physics research papers for a broad audience of physicists, journalists, students, and the public.
In choosing papers, they consider not only scientific significance, but also novelty, accessibility of the topic, the interests of their readers and viewers, timing of the paper's publication, space limitations, and the need to vary the sub-fields discussed.
Some of the summary readers are not physicists, and it helps all of them to visualize how the topic could be presented to a general audience.

 Document Format and Template HTML
The remaining bibliographic element, which turned out to be of vital importance, was the paper's reference list, that is the list of earlier papers the present paper has cited [1].
Receiving lists of new preprints and journal articles is all very well, but after several years one is left once again with a stack of paper.
As citation results reflect some degree of professional accomplishment, physicists tend to be rather interested in them and a good deal of their correspondence with the SLAC Library concerns omissions or mistakes in the reference lists (which is exacerbated by the posting to LANL of revised versions of E-prints, which often contain additional references).

Its original intent was to be an open forum for papers authored by credentialed physicists, i.e., those who consistently had papers approved for publication in peer refereed journals.
The arXiv administrators maintain a list of physicists whom they have fllisted or ostracized so that any paper those individuals attempt to submit is systematically rejected regardless of its scientific content.
One characteristic that these ostracized physicists share in common is that they have written or published papers in the past which propose new ideas that challenge traditional physics dogma.
