User:Hhhippo/Physics inventions by country

This page lists physics articles that are categorized as inventions associated with a particular country or region.

Such articles are subject to Wikipedia's categorization guideline and in particular must adhere to the policies on verifiability and neutral point of view. Specifically, the category should describe a defining characteristic of a subject of the article, the categorization should be uncontroversial and clearly justifiable from information in the article text backed up by reliable sources. Within physics, special care is needed regarding whether a development can be classified as an invention, and whether it can be ascribed to a particular country or region.

Category tags not in line with Wikipedia's policies may be challenged or removed. In some cases the inclusion of an article in a list (which can be annotated and referenced) may be more appropriate.
