When it comes to the best brains in human history, there comes a few names that changed the mankind once for all. They are humans only but hardly have they seemed to belong from this planet. Research held by Unites States’ National Bureau of Economic Research suggested that September-born people are relatively smarter. Beyond it, this month is very miraculous because Nobel Prize archives say that every date of September born has received the honor. Also, relatively most number of greatest Philosophers, Physicists, Mathematicians, Economists, Scientists, Political Leaders, and other influential people were born in this month. Here is a list presented with some of the most notable revolutionary minds born in September.
Sept. 1 – Sergei Winogradsky : Winogradsky is the man behind the notion of cycle of life.

Sept. 3 – Lev Pontryagin : The life of this Soviet Mathematician Lev Pontryagin is a great source of inspiration. He lost his eyesight completely at the age of fourteen due to an unsuccessful eye surgery; yet was one of the leading Mathematician in modern times whose contributions to mathematics range to many different areas.
Sept. 4 – Max Delbrück : Delbrück received 1969 Nobel Prize of Physiology or Medicine in recognition for his work in molecular genetics. He is also regarded as the founder of molecular biology.
Sept. 5 – Eugen Goldstein : Goldstein is one of the greatest experimental physicist who is best known for his discovery of anode rays. His experimental observations inspired many scientists and led up the notion of Mass Spectrometry.
Sept. 6 – Johan Wilcke : If you ever heard the term of Specific heat, here is this early Swedish Physicist Johan Wilcke who coined this term who also invented very initial version of electrostatic generator. He also calculated the latent heat of ice.
Sept. 6 – John Dalton : The Father of Atomic Theory John Dalton is one of those brands of sciences to whom the history owe much of its knowledge in a broader realm because not only in Physics, he also made substantially high contributions to chemistry, meteorology and color blindness as well. His legacies in Gas theory are likewise remarkable as of Atomic Theory.
Sept. 6 – Bruno Bauer : Bauer was a great Philosopher, Theologian and a maestro of influential Political ideologies. His legacies has influenced some of the most profound minds including Karl Marx, Charles Darwin, Sigmund Freud and Friedrich Nietzsche etc.
Sept. 6 – John J.R. Macleod : The 1923 Nobel Prize Laureate in Physiology or medicine, John James Rickard Macleod made the diabetic lives to survive in ease by playing an significant role in discovering Insulin. He worked in a wide area of biochemistry as well.
Sept. 6 – Edward Victor Appleton : Sir Edward V. Appleton was the Pioneer of Radiophysics and his work also led to determine the existence of ionosphere thus, he received the 1947 Nobel Prize of Physics.
Sept. 6 – Dev Arastu Panchariya : Indian-born Polymath, Dev Arastu Panchariya came to limelight for various of reasons. One of the Royal Charters under H.M. The Queen of England made public response of his election for the honor after which he was widely covered and trend on social media. Recently, his saying was viewed more than 25 million times within four days. More than a celebrated luminary; as per leading media reports he is looked as a contemporary figure to Albert Einstein for his radical discoveries as a Theoretical Physicists and Mathematician and also been quoted as the Smartest Man alive. He is much covered in leading media and also speculated as mastermind behind distinctive Political strategies and policies. It is much likely for him to get a Nobel Prize some day.
Sept. 7 – Queen Elizabeth : As well-known, Elizabeth-I was the Queen of England and Ireland.
Sept. 10 – Arthur Holly Compton : Compton as a Physicist famously described detailed particle nature of electromagnetic radiations for which he won the 1927 Nobel Prize in Physics. He made notable impacts in the field of cosmic rays and played a key role in American Nuclear Projects during World War-II.
Sept. 12 – Irene Joliot-Curie : Irene Curie, the first daughter of Marie And Pierre Curie. Irene received the 1935 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for her discovery of Artificial Radioactivity. The discovery and Nobel Prize was shared with her husband Frédéric Joliot-Curie and this made them the second couple ever to jointly win the Nobel Prize after her Parents.
Sept. 15 – William Howard Taft : In the governing history of United States, William H. Taft has held the most number of distinctive appointments. Taft was one of the greatest masterminds of Law and International Policies. He was the 27th president of United States and later was the tenth chief justice of the United States; this made him the only person to hold in both offices. Apart from these two, he held as United States Secretary of War, Governor of Philippines, Judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, Solicitor General of the United States and also held lifetime appointment as Federal judge very initially. He was also the first provisional governor of Cuba.
Sept. 15 – Murray Gell-Mann : Being a Particle Physicist, his work in the field earned him the 1969 Nobel Prize of Physics. He is also best known for coining the term of Quarks.
Sept. 16 – Johannes Nikolaus Tetens : Tetens was one of the pioneering figure as the profound Philosopher and Scientist who made radical influence on the Immanuel Kant. He was also a prominent Statistician.
Sept. 17 – Bernhard Riemann : Riemann has been one of the greatest mathematicians in history. His genius laid many prolific ideas in various branches of mathematics. Despite his early death at 39 of age, his discoveries of Differential Geometry and others have influenced a great deal, even in Modern Physics carried out by Einstein later.
Sept. 19 – Jean-Baptiste-Joseph Delambre : The atheist Mathematician and Astronomer has a moon surface, crater Delambre on his name. He carried out certain tables of the location of planets and their satellites. His authored books have widely influenced these fields.
Sept. 22 – Michael Faraday : Due to extremely weak financial conditions and hailing from a poor belonging, Faraday never only had basic education yet broken all stereotypes and managed to carry out some of the greatest scientific ideas and later called as the Father of Electricity. He greatly influenced Maxwell and Einstein. He turned down Knighthood many times, wanted to die with plain “Mr. Faraday”.
Sept. 23 – John Loudon McAdam : Perhaps the greatest Civil engineer and road-builder, John L. McAdam pioneered the most effective and economical way to make roads which is called as Macadamisation.
Sept. 25 – Harald Cramér : Born in Sweden, Harald was one of the finest mathematical pioneer who widely contributed in Mathematical Statistics, Probability and Actuarial Sciences.
Sept. 26 – T. S. Eliot : The leading Poet and Playwright in history of modern literature, Eliot received Nobel Prize in Literature in year 1948 for his impact on modern poetry.
Sept. 29 – Enrico Fermi : The man, Fermi is often called as the Architect of Nuclear and Atomic Age. He theorized the particles today called Fermions and Neutrinos. For his contributions to Nuclear Physics, he was awarded the 1938 Physics Nobel Prize.
Sept. 29 – Lech Wałęsa : Wałęsa is the first democratically elected President of Poland since 1926. His solidarity movement ended the communist rule in Poland in 1989 and then in following year he became the first Polish President getting elected in Popular Vote. For his non-violent struggle, he received 1983 Nobel Peace Prize.
Sept. 30 – Jean-Baptiste Perrin : Jean Perrin was the French-born Physicist who is best known for contributions in Statistical Physics. 1926 Nobel Prize of Physics was bestowed to him as they say for his work on the discontinuous structure of matter, and especially for his discovery of sedimentation equilibrium. His experiments and other works were much idolized by Albert Einstein.
