Bernhard Riemann	Georg Friedrich Bernhard Riemann was a German mathematician who made contributions to analysis, number theory, and differential geometry.
Pierre-Ernest Weiss	Pierre-Ernest Weiss (was a French physicist who specialized in magnetism. He developed the domain theory of ferromagnetism in 1907. Weiss domains and the Weiss magneton are named after him. Weiss also developed the molecular or mean-field theory, which is often called Weiss-mean-field theory, that led to the discovery of the Curie–Weiss law.
