Rainer " Rai " Weiss ( /waɪs/ WYSSE, njemački: [vaɪs] ; 29. septembar 1932 – 25. august 2025) bio je američki fizičar, poznat po svojim doprinosima u gravitacionoj fizici i astrofizici. On je profesor fizike emeritus na MIT- u i vanredni profesor na LSU. Najpoznatiji je po izumu laserske interferometrijske tehnike koja je osnovna operacija LIGO -a. Bio je predsjedavajući naučne radne grupe COBE.[1][2][3]
Godine 2017. Weiss je nagrađen Nobelovom nagradom za fiziku, zajedno sa Kipom Thorneom i Barryjem Barishom, "za odlučujući doprinos LIGO detektoru i posmatranju gravitacionih talasa".[4][5][6][7]
Weiss je pomogao u realizaciji niza izazovnih eksperimentalnih testova fundamentalne fizike. On je član Fermilab Holometar eksperimenta, koji koristi laserski interferometar od 40 metara za mjerenje svojstava prostora i vremena na kvantnoj skali i pruža Planck-precizne testove kvantne holografske fluktuacije.[8][9]
U intervjuu 2022. datom Federalnom univerzitetu Pará u Brazilu, Weiss govori o svom životu i karijeri, sjećanjima na djetinjstvo i mladost, svojim dodiplomskim i postdiplomskim studijama na MIT- u i budućnosti astronomije gravitacijskih valova .[10]
