It is named after Enrico Fermi, the Nobel Prize winner and physicist who produced the first controlled nuclear chain reaction.
The Monte Carlo trolley, or FERMIAC, was an analog computer invented by physicist Enrico Fermi to aid in his studies of neutron transport.
The GeForce 400 Series is the 11th generation of Nvidia's GeForce graphics processing units, which serves as the introduction for the Fermi architecture (GF-codenamed chips), named after the Italian physicist Enrico Fermi.
The story is inspired by a real life fact and set in the 1930s when, at the Institute of Physics of Via Panisperna, in Rome, physicist Enrico Fermi managed to involve a group of brilliant young students—Emilio, Bruno, Edoardo and Ettore (respectively, Emilio Segrè, Bruno Pontecorvo, Edoardo Amaldi and Ettore Majorana, all of whom became famous scientists)—forming a working group committed to scientific research who would achieve great discoveries in the field of nuclear physics.
There he met or worked with various illuminaries in the Manhattan Project, such as Robert B. Brode, Norman Ramsey, Niels Bohr, Enrico Fermi, Edward Doll, and General Leslie Groves.
The earliest Stagg Field is probably best remembered for its role in a landmark scientific achievement by Enrico Fermi during the Manhattan Project.
She also intends to send a carefully worded letter to Italy, causing a man (presumably Enrico Fermi) to "begin experimenting with the neutronic bombardment of uranium".
Furthermore, he is less and less able to affect anything: when he shoots Enrico Fermi in the chest, Fermi merely complains of heartburn.

A wood-framed building, similar to many other World War II period “H-plan” buildings, it served as guest quarters to a number of dignitaries during the top-secret Manhattan Project, including Enrico Fermi, Robert Oppenheimer and General Leslie Groves.
Following his doctoral studies, Simon took professorship at Princeton for many years, often working with colleague Elliott H. Lieb on the Thomas-Fermi Theory and Hartree-Fock Theory of atoms in addition to phase transitions and mentoring many of the same students as Lieb.
In the Summer of 1953 Fermi, Pasta, Ulam and Mary Tsingou conducted numerical experiments (i.e. computer simulations) of a vibrating string that included a non-linear term (quadratic in one test, cubic in another, and a piecewise linear approximation to a cubic in a third).
Bruno Pontecorvo was the conduit supplying the atomic secrets from Enrico Fermi.
Christy received his Ph.D. in 1941 and joined the physics department faculty of Illinois Institute of Technology, however he also spent time at the University of Chicago where he was recruited by Enrico Fermi to join the effort to build the first reactor, having been recommended as a theory resource by Oppenheimer.
Zachariasen, with the support of the physics department faculty, brought Enrico Fermi, Edward Teller, Robert F. Christy, Walter H. Zinn, Maria Goeppert-Mayer, Gregor Wentzel, and other distinguished physicists to the University of Chicago as professors of physics.
He received his Ph.D. in 1981, and followed with postdoctoral work with Arthur Michael Wolfe at Pittsburgh, with the Zeldovich group in Moscow, and as Enrico Fermi Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Chicago.
