	Martin Ryle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		As a result, Ryle was the driving force in the creation and improvement of interferometry and aperture synthesis, which have contributed immensely to upgrading the quality of radio astronomical data.
		Ryle worried that Cambridge would lose its standing in the radio astronomy community as other radio astronomy groups had much better funding, so he encouraged a certain amount of secrecy about his aperture synthesis methods in order to keep an advantage for the Cambridge group.
		Ryle had a famous heated argument with Fred Hoyle of the Institute of Astronomy about Hoyle's Steady State Universe (see also the note on the 2C source survey), which somewhat restricted collaboration between the Cavendish Radio Astronomy Group and the Institute of Astronomy during the 1960s.

	Ryle, Sir Martin
		Ryle was the nephew of the philosopher Gilbert Ryle.
		Ryle's early work centred on studies of radio waves from the Sun, sunspots, and a few nearby stars.
		In the mid-1960s Ryle put into operation two telescopes on rails that at the maximum distance of 1.6 km (1 mile) provided results comparable to a single telescope 1.6 km in diameter.

		British astronomer Sir Martin Ryle (Oxford University, Cambridge University, 1974 Nobel prize, Physics) developed the revolutionary telescope system to measure accurate location of weak radio sources in the sky.
		Ryle developed aperture synthesis technique, which provided a significant increased in resolving power by using two-radio antenna and changing the distance between them.
		The telescope system developed by Ryle was used to locate the first pulsar, which had been discovered in 1967 by Hewish and Jocelyn Bell of the Cambridge group.

		PROFESSOR Sir Fred Hoyle, who has died aged 86, was Britain's best-known astronomer and (until Stephen Hawking's work became generally known) physicist, as well as a much-admired writer of science fiction; he was also an outrageous mischief-maker who took a delight in enraging his academic colleagues.
		He also challenged the evidence of the radio astronomer Sir Martin Ryle, who in the 1960s had found similar, if less conclusive, evidence of cosmic origins.
		Ryle, still smarting from the cosmological dispute, attacked the book bitterly, and a furious correspondence ensued.

		In 1967 Sir Martin Ryle and Tony Hewish, from the Cavendish Laboratory in Cambridge, England, were jointly awarded the Nobel Prize in physics, with Hewish honored for the discovery of pulsars.

		Professor Hewish is a radio astronomer who was awarded, with Martin Ryle, the Nobel Prize for Physics 1974 for his work on pulsars (rapidly rotating neutron stars that emit pulses of energy).
		He determined that the regularly patterned radio signals, or pulses, that Bell had detected were not caused by earthly interference or, as some speculated, by intelligent life forms trying to communicate with distant planets but rather were energy emissions from certain stars.
		For this work in identifying pulsars as a new class of stars, he was awarded jointly with Ryle the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1974.

		Martin, being the name of St. Martin of Tours (a popular medieval saint) was common all over Europe and can be found in northern France from the 9th century onwards.
		It never became really unpopular in Protestant countries, however, probably because it was Martin Luther who began the Reformation.
