Overview

Percy Williams Bridgman (born April 21, 1882 in Cambridge, Massachusetts) was an American physicist best known for his work in high-pressure physics, operationalism, and operational definition. A United States citizen, Bridgman passed away in Randolph, New Hampshire on August 20, 1961.

Bridgman obtained his education from Newton North High School and later attended Harvard University in the field of physics. He specialized in high-pressure physics, a field that combines physics and engineering to study materials under extremely high pressures. His doctoral advisor was Wallace Clement Sabine.

Throughout his career, Bridgman mentored prominent physicists, including doctoral students John C. Slater and Edwin C. Kemble.
