Joseph Hooton Taylor Jr. is an American astrophysicist known for his work in the field of gravitational physics and astrophysics. He was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1993, along with Russell Hulse, for the discovery of pulsar PSR 1913+16, which provided important experimental evidence for the existence of gravitational waves and contributed to the understanding of general relativity. Taylor's research has significantly advanced the study of neutron stars and relativistic astrophysics.
