HOME SITE HELP ABOUT SEARCH ... EDUCATIONAL Luis W. Alvarez was born in San Francisco, Calif., on June 13, 1911. He received his B.Sc. from the University of Chicago in 1932, a M.Sc. in 1934, and his Ph.D. in 1936. Dr. Alvarez joined the Radiation Laboratory of the University of California, where he is now a professor, as a research fellow in 1936. He was on leave at the Radiation Laboratory of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology from 1940 to 1943, at the Metallurgical Laboratory of the University of Chicago in 1943-1944, and at the Los Alamos Laboratory of the Manhattan District from 1944 to 1945. Early in his scientific career, Dr. Alvarez worked concurrently in the fields of optics and cosmic rays. He is co-discoverer of the "East-West effect" in cosmic rays. For several years he concentrated his work in the field of nuclear physics. In 1937 he gave the first experimental demonstration of the existence of the phenomenon of K -electron capture by nuclei. Another early development was a method for producing beams of very slow neutrons. This method subsequently led to a fundamental investigation of neutron scattering in ortho- and para-hydrogen, with Pitzer, and to the first measurement, with Bloch, of the magnetic moment of the neutron. With Wiens, he was responsible for the production of the first Hg lamp; this device was developed by the Bureau of Standards into its present form as the universal standard of length. Just before the war, Alvarez and Cornog discovered the radioactivity of

Garwin (Published in Memorial Tributes everything that had been written on the subject" of nuclear physics. He also soon knew the contents "of every drawer and cabinet in the Radiation Laboratory," and resurrected the first small cyclotrons from oblivion. Key to his evolution as a scientist was Ernest Lawrence's journal club, meeting every Monday night at 7:30 a tradition that continued for decades in Luis' home. Also influential was the "Bethe Bible," three articles published by Hans Bethe in Reviews of Modern Physics in 1936 and 1937. Luis' highly developed competitive spirit was stimulated by these 468 pages "If he (Bethe) said a phenomenon would never be observable, I wanted to prove him wrong, which would make both of us happy. In several significant instances over the next four years, I did." Luis' discoveries in Physics are treated at length in his autobiography and in Discovering Alvarez cube of the range to the submarine. As the aircraft approached, the submarine would detect

He is also senior research physicist at Lawrence Berkley Laboratory in California. He was born in San Francisco, California on June 13, 1911. He attended the University of Chicago from 1928 to 1936, where he received his undergraduate and graduate degrees. Alvarez joined the Radiation Laboratory of the University of California in 1936. From 1940 to 1943, he was on leave at the Radiation Laboratory of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Then he worked at the Metallurgical Laboratory of the University of Chicago from 1943 to 1944, and at the Los Alamos Laboratory of the Manhattan District from 1944 to 1945. Early in his scientific career, Dr. Alvarez worked concurrently in the fields of optics and cosmic rays. He is credited with many discoveries including: codiscoverer of East-West effect in cosmic rays; radioactivity of tritium a source of thermonuclear energy; helium 3, K-electron capture by nuclei, measured neutron magnetic moment; radar systems (blind landing system); nuon catalysis of nuclear fission; proton linear accelerator; strange baryon and meson resonant states; neutron time of flight spectrometer; charge exchange accelerator; hydrogen bubble chambers; bubble chamber film measuring systems; variable focus thin lens; and stabilizing image in handheld cameras and viewing devices.
