A composite black-and-white photograph honoring astrophysicist Dame Jocelyn Bell Burnell, famous for her 1967 discovery of pulsars. The main central image shows a young Jocelyn Bell (in her late 20s) smiling warmly at the camera, wearing cat-eye glasses, her hair styled in ponytail, and a collared coat. She stands in front of the iconic large radio telescope array at the Mullard Radio Astronomy Observatory (near Cambridge, UK), a massive wire-mesh parabolic structure with a central feed horn and supporting framework towering behind her, evoking the instrument she used to detect the first pulsar signals. In the lower-left inset is a modern color portrait of an older Dame Jocelyn Bell Burnell (with gray hair in a practical style, wearing glasses and a blue blazer over a patterned blouse), smiling brightly and looking directly at the viewer, representing her later years as a celebrated scientist and advocate for women in STEM. The side-by-side images beautifully contrast her groundbreaking early career moment with her enduring legacy. #physics #astrophysics
In 1967, physicist Jocelyn Bell Burnell discovered radio pulsars.
#OTD in 1968, Burnell, Antony Hewish, and 3 other male colleagues published a paper on the discovery in 𝘕𝘢𝘵𝘶𝘳𝘦--but, the 1974 Nobel Prize in #Physics for their discovery was awarded only to Hewish.

物理学者の呉健雄は1997年に#OTDで亡くなりました。
彼女はウー実験（パリティが保存されないことを証明する実験）を実施し、その功績で男性の同僚たちは1957年のノーベル物理学賞を受賞しました。彼女の功績は、1978年に第1回ウルフ賞を受賞するまで公に認められていませんでした。 #WomenInSTEM #MatildaEffect

Black-and-white historical photograph of renowned Chinese-American physicist Dr. Chien-Shiung Wu. She stands confidently in a white lab coat, facing the camera with a calm, poised expression and direct gaze. Her dark hair is elegantly styled. Behind her is a large, complex rack of mid-20th-century electronic equipment, including tangled cables, multiple control panels, dials, switches, and connectors. Prominently visible is a device labeled "CU1721" (a linear amplifier), with additional markings such as "GUIDANCE CONTROL," "FOR AC ANALYSIS," "TIME CONTROL," input/output ports, and other technical labels typical of nuclear physics instrumentation from that era. The setting captures the intensity and precision of experimental nuclear research in the post-WWII period.
Physicist Chien-Shiung Wu died #OTD in 1997.
She conducted the Wu experiment (proving parity isn't conserved) for which her male colleagues won the 1957 Nobel Prize in Physics. Her role wasn't publicly honored until she was awarded the inaugural Wolf Prize in 1978. #WomenInSTEM #MatildaEffect

But referents are meaningless if the system pushes them out:
📉 #ScissorsEffect: Pushed out before stability. 🧱 #GlassCeiling: Invisible barriers to leadership. 🕳️ #LeakyPipeline: Talent lost to rigid structures. 🤫 #MatildaEffect: Erasure of credit. ✋ #Paternalism: Questioning female authority.

It is safe to defend women who are dead.
It is dangerous to defend women who are alive.

They published 2 papers with her research but did not mention her. Dean named it the Dean Method & produced the medication in large quantities, shipping it domestically and abroad.
It would take more than half a century for Ball to receive credit for her work. #MatildaEffect #WomenInSTEM

Split image: Main photo — black-and-white portrait of young Jocelyn Bell Burnell in the 1960s, smiling broadly in front of the large lattice structure at Mullard Radio Astronomy Observatory (SW of Cambridge in the UK). Inset (left) — color portrait of Dame Jocelyn Bell Burnell today, short graying hair, glasses, and a warm smile, wearing a blue jacket.

Historian Margaret #Rossiter exposed the long-standing erasure of women scientists and named it the #MatildaEffect, after Matilda Joslyn #Gage. Through decades of research, she restored hundreds of women to the scientific record and reshaped how history is written.

In 1974, the Nobel Foundation decided to no longer award the #NobelPrize posthumously.
Well after 1962.

» #MatildaEffect: The practice of ascribing women's accomplishments to men. An expert in x-ray crystallography, Rosalin Franklin led the team that created what has been called "arguably the most important photo ever taken," the celebrated Photo 51, which revealed the helical structure of #DNA.«

It’s named after Matilda Joslyn Gage, an 1800s suffragist who first called out how women’s contributions were being erased from history.
No matter what field you're in, the Matilda Effect reminds us:
Credit matters. Representation matters.

Although Fanny Mendelssohn composed over 400 pieces, many were published under her brother Felix’s name because publishers and audiences were reluctant to take female composers seriously.

Rosalind Franklin | Chemist and X-ray Crystallographer, born #OTD in 1920
Best known for her role in the discovery of the structure of DNA; she's not gotten the full credit she richly deserves. #WomenInSTEM #MatildaEffect

Happy Birthday Jocelyn Bell Burnell🎈 | Astrophysicist, born OTD in 1943.
In 1967, she discovered the first radio pulsars, but the Nobel Prize in Physics for their discovery went to to her thesis supervisor Antony Hewish & to astronomer Martin Ryle. #MatildaEffect #WomenInSTEM

La chaine de @tibees.bsky.social (en anglais) nous parle de symétrie de parité (presque comme la symétrie d'un miroir), dont la violation fut découverte par la physicienne Chien-Shiung Wu (qui pour changer ne reçut pas le prix Nobel, qui fut donné à 2 confrères masculins)

📢 Une fois de plus, les femmes astronomes sont effacées de l’histoire : le hors-série Ciel & Espace sur les “découvreurs de l’Univers” n’en mentionne qu’une seule.
✊ Pour que les filles d’aujourd’hui aient des modèles.
