'''Sir Rudolf Ernst Peierls''', (5 June 1907, Berlin – 19 September 1995, Oxford), was a German-born British physicist. Rudolph Peierls had a major role in Britain's nuclear program, but he also had a role in many modem sciences.

==Peierls' argument==
The argument considers the entropy associated with the interface between domains with different orientations.
