Bertram Neville Brockhouse
Nobel laureate Brockhouse was 'heroic figure' in physics
Hamilton's only Nobel Prize winner revolutionized physics but had to be convinced that his work was important. Byline: Meredith Macleod Dr. Bertram Brockhouse, a professor emeritus at McMaster University, winner of the most prestigious awards in science, member of the Order of Canada and the only Canadian Nobel laureate who was born, educated and completed his life's work in this country, died Monday [October 13, 2003] at St. Joseph's hospital. He was 85. His health had been declining for a number of years but his standing as a leader in Canadian science has never faltered. "He was a heroic figure in our community and in material science," said Dr. Bruce Gaulin, a McMaster professor of physics, who holds a research chair named in Brockhouse's honour. "He was an almost larger than life figure for this university and the Canadian physics community." Brockhouse, one of 17 Canadian winners of a Nobel, won his physics prize for work in neutron scattering a field he invented. In the early 1950s, while a researcher for Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd. at Chalk River, Brockhouse developed a device that used a neutron beam produced by a nuclear reactor to probe solid materials at the atomic level. It was science's first glimpse into what holds solid materials together. It was like shining a flashlight into the mysteries of crystals, metals, minerals, gems and rocks.

Shull wins physics Nobel for work done 40 years ago
By Daniel C. Stevenson
Although 1994 will be the date recorded for Professor Emeritus of Physics Clifford G. Shull's Nobel Prize, the records probably won't record the campaign on his behalf that followed the real prize-winning effort, which took place more than 40 years ago when Shull worked at the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Shull's most important work was done at the Oak Ridge facility in Tennessee from 1946-51. At Oak Ridge, Shull, 79, and his colleague, the late Ernest Wollan, "systematically investigated the fundamental principles of elastic neutron scattering, thus providing the groundwork for this type of research," said Robert J. Birgeneau, dean of the School of Science. Members of the physics community have been lobbying the Nobel committee for 10 years to award the prize to Shull. The effort succeeded last year because Birgeneau and Institute Professor Jerome I. Friedman, a 1990 winner in physics, were able to convince international leaders in physics to recognize Shull and Bertram N. Brockhouse of McMaster University as the "real pioneers," Birgeneau said. Shull, 79, and Brockhouse shared the $930,000 prize for developing a new way of looking at atoms.

28. Brockhouse, Bertram N.
brockhouse, bertram N. (1918). It appears that I was born in hospital in given by the amazing event of the nobel Prize and its accompaniments,
http://www.cartage.org.lb/en/themes/Biographies/MainBiographies/B/Brockhouse/Bro
Brockhouse, Bertram N.
My sister entered the school system in a normal way. But I had been a somewhat nominal attendee of the one-room elementary school a couple of miles from our farm and my preparation for the system was somewhat mixed. I must have learned to read and to do simple arithmetic at a very early age because I cannot remember ever learning these subjects. But in other ways I was much behind my potential classmates. But the fine Vancouver schools I attended (Central and then Lord Roberts elementary schools and King George High School - and the Sunday School of St. John's United Church) soon took care of this. So I had what I believe to be a good basic education, except for social and organizational defects probably arising from the facts that I found school work easy and that I was younger than most of my classmates. There were other people of course who had influence on me. These included my two aunts: Edith (Neville) Murphy in Chicago and Maude (Brockhouse) Smith in western Canada. My older cousin Wilbert B. Smith may have inspired an early interest in radio technology.
Our family finances were somewhat precarious so I carried newspapers for most of my teens. But the Great Depression made things worse and in 1935 our family moved by train to Chicago in the hope of bettering the situation. I had completed High School by this time and took some evening courses at Central YMCA College (now Roosevelt University). I was interested in the technical aspects of radios and learned to repair and design and build them. This and my facility with mathematics was, I suppose, what pointed me eventually in the direction of physics. For part of our time in Chicago I worked as a lab assistant in a small electronic firm, Aubert Controls Corporation. But the company failed in the recession of 1937. In 1938 our family decided to return to Vancouver and we drove across the continent, all of us I think enjoying the experience.

Nobel laureate, alumnus Shull, dies at 85
April 19, 2001 Dr. Clifford G. Shull, the NYU alumnus who shared the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1994 for his work with neutrons, died on Saturday, March 31 in Medford, Mass. He was 85. Shull was honored with the Nobel Prize for developing a technique to probe the molecular structure of materials by bouncing neutrons off them. The technique Dr. Shull developed, neutron scattering, is widely used by scientists examining things as different as superconductors and viruses. His work was of considerable significance to the development of the transistor and the computer chip. Shull shared the Nobel Prize with Dr. Bertram N. Brockhouse, an emeritus professor of physics at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario, who had independently worked on the problem. Born in Pittsburgh in 1915, Shull was educated at the Carnegie Institute of Technology and New York University, from which he received his doctorate in physics in 1941. He recalled NYU fondly for his scientific work there - "We graduate students were encouraged at an early stage to join and help in one of the half-dozen or so ongoing research projects within the department" - and because he met his future wife there, Martha Nuel-Summer. After World War II, Dr. Shull joined what is now Oak Ridge National Laboratory in Tennessee. There he worked with the late Dr. Ernest O. Wollan, exploring how neutron patterns could be used to supplement those obtained with x-rays or electrons. Physicists had earlier used X-rays to probe materials, but neutron scattering was the first technique able to detect the position of hydrogen atoms and to measure magnetic fields around atoms. Shull later said he regretted that Wollan's death, in 1984, precluded his sharing the Nobel with Brockhouse and himself, "since his contributions were certainly deserving of recognition."

Research Technology Neutron scattering techniques help to reveal the secrets of nature at microscopic and atomic level. THE STRUCTURE AND DYNAMICS OF MATTER REVEALED Most people know that X-ray methods and microscopy can be used for studying objects in detail. Despite refinements these methods are not always adequate. Bertram N. Brockhouse and Clifford G. Shull were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics 1994 for pioneering contributions to the development of neutron scattering techniques for studies of condensed matter. For more information, look up www.nobel.se Photos and text © The Nobel Foundation DYNAMIC DEVELOPMENT Neutron scattering techniques are powerful methods to analyse both solid and fluid (condensed) matter. Generally monochromatic neutrons are used for scattering experiments. The incident neutrons are scattered without change in their energy (elastic scattering), which provides information about the arrangement of atoms in material. The neutrons can undergo a change in the energy on scattering, which gives information about the movement of atoms in a fluid, i.e. the dynamics of the atom.

POLANYI (Chemistry, 1986) John Polanyi who was born in Berlin, Germany in 1929, migrated with his Hungarian parents to England in 1933. He did his university studies at Manchester University, earning his Ph.D. in 1952, the same year in which he came to Canada. He worked as a post-doctoral fellow at the National Research Council Laboratories in Ottawa from 1952-1954, and as a research associate at Princeton University from 1954-1956. In 1956 he joined the faculty of the Department of Chemistry at the University of Toronto where he has remained every since. His research involved the development of a new field of research in chemistry-reaction dynamics-providing a much more detailed understanding of how chemical reactions take place. For this work, he shared the 1986 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. His ongoing research has earned him many other awards and honours, including, the Royal Medal of the Royal Society, and some thirty honorary degrees from six countries. Dr. Polanyi has served on the Prime Minister of Canada's Advisory Board on Science and Technology, and the Premier's Council of Ontario. An advocate of international human rights, he was a founding member of the Committee on Scholarly Freedom of the Royal Society, and the Canadian Committee for Scientists and Scholars, and the founding Chairman of the Canadian Pugwash Group in 1960. Dr. Polanyi has written extensively on science policy, the control of armaments, and peacekeeping.

    On the 100th anniversary of the Nobel prize
    100 Nobel laureates warn that our security hangs on environmental and social reform The most profound danger to world peace in the coming years will stem not from the irrational acts of states or individuals but from the legitimate demands of the world's dispossessed. Of these poor and disenfranchised, the majority live a marginal existence in equatorial climates. Global warming, not of their making but originating with the wealthy few, will affect their fragile ecologies most. Their situation will be desperate and manifestly unjust.
    It cannot be expected, therefore, that in all cases they will be content to await the beneficence of the rich. If then we permit the devastating power of modern weaponry to spread through this combustible human landscape, we invite a conflagration that can engulf both rich and poor. The only hope for the future lies in co-operative international action, legitimized by democracy.
    It is time to turn our backs on the unilateral search for security, in which we seek to shelter behind walls. Instead, we must persist in the quest for united action to counter both global warming and a weaponized world.
    These twin goals will constitute vital components of stability as we move toward the wider degree of social justice that alone gives hope of peace.
