Supersymmetry is a theory devised by particle physicists to tidy up the rather arbitrary "standard model" of subatomic particles with which they now work.
Following an obscure theory devised by Gilbert Ling, a physiologist, Dr Damadian believed he would be able to distinguish cancerous from healthy tissues on the basis of the cells' water structure.
And the LHC just might produce minuscule black holes, which should then evaporate in a burst of radiation, if a theory devised in 1974 by Stephen Hawking, a British physicist, is correct.
But human beings will never get near to one of these, which is a pity because a theory devised 40 years ago by Stephen Hawking, a physicist at Cambridge University, suggests black holes are not actually black, but glow with a radiation that is too faint to be seen from Earth.This, however, has not put off Jeff Steinhauer of the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology in Haifa.
Cole is a highly associative thinker whose diverse interests allow him to make unexpected, illuminating connections, as in an essay using an obscure art theory devised by the 19th-century Italian writer Vittorio Imbriani to explain Google's Search by Image function. .

Cohen-Tannoudji and his colleagues at ENS expanded on the work of Chu and Phillips, successfully explaining a seeming discrepancy in theory and devising new mechanisms for cooling and trapping atoms with laser light.
Therefore, a second hypothesis, the 'tryptophan utilization theory', was devised which takes into account the pharmacological actions of kynurenine pathway metabolites in the control of immune reactions in addition to the biostatic effect of tryptophan depletion (Moffett and Namboodiri, 2003).
