Ethnically, I come from a mixed family. My father was the son of Jewish immigrants who left Russia shortly after the turn of the century, and my mother was the daughter of a Lutheran minister whose parents were from what is now Slovakia. Mostly, however, I grew up in a medical family. My father's father and all his children either became physicians or married them. My parents had met in New York where my father was a medical intern and my mother was a nurse. At the end of World War II, my parents settled in Aberdeen, a small logging town on the west coast of Washington State, where medical doctors were in short supply. Surrounded by natural beauty, it was a perfect place to raise a family, and I was the second of five children.
To this day I grow pale at the sight of blood, and never for a moment considered a career in medicine. Despite this, my father, who was usually engrossed in his medical career, inspired in me passions for both photography and gardening, which were his hobbies when time permitted, as they are mine. Natural science interested me intensely from a very early age. When I was six I began tearing my toys apart to play with the electric motors. From then on, my free hours were occupied by a myriad of mechanical, chemical and electrical projects, culminating in the construction of a 100 keV X-ray machine during my senior year in high school.
My projects often involved an element of danger, but my parents never seemed too concerned, nor did they inhibit me. Once a muzzle loading rifle I had built went off in the house, putting a hole through two walls. On another occasion a make-shift acetylene 'miners' lamp blew up on my chemistry bench in the basement, embedding shards of glass in the side of my face, narrowly missing my right eye. With blood running down my face, I came up the stairs cupping my hands to keep the blood off the carpet. My mother was by then at the top of the stairs. Knowing my propensity for practical jokes, she exclaimed loudly "If you're kidding I'll kill you! " As usual, my father lectured me about safety as he sewed the larger wounds closed, and there was always an unspoken understanding that that particular phase of my experimentation was over.

Research Interests
Research efforts center around studies of quantum fluids and solids and glasses at ultra-low temperatures. Current work in quantum fluids and solids includes studies of transport properties in nuclear magnetically ordered solid 3He, studies of the B phase nucleation in superfluid 3He, and experimental searches for new magnetically ordered two dimensional phases of both solid and liquid 3He on graphite surfaces. The work involving glasses is intended to elucidate the nature of two level systems in amorphous materials at ultra-low temperatures, and to develop new low heat capacity/high resolution thermometers for use in the 1 to 10 mK temperature range. Specialty: ultra-low temperature physics

Aug. 1, 1945, Aberdeen, Wash., U.S.), American physicist who, along with David Lee and Robert Richardson , was the corecipient of the 1996 Nobel Prize for Physics for their discovery of superfluidity in the isotope helium Osheroff received a bachelor's degree (1967) from the California Institute of Technology and a doctorate (1973) from Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y. He was a graduate student working with Lee and Richardson in the low-temperature laboratory at Cornell when the team made its discovery in 1972. The team was investigating the properties of helium-3 under temperatures of just a few thousandths of a degree above absolute zero (-273 C). Osheroff noticed minute jumps in the internal pressure of the sample of helium-3 under investigation, and he drew the team's attention to these small deviations. The researchers eventually concluded that the helium-3 had undergone a phase transition to a superfluid state, in which a liquid's atoms lose their randomness and move about in a coordinated manner. Such a substance lacks all internal friction, flows without resistance, and behaves according to quantum mechanical laws rather than to those of classical fluid mechanics. The discovery of superfluidity in helium-3 enabled scientists to study directly in macroscopicor visiblesystems the quantum mechanical effects that had previously been studied only indirectly in molecules, atoms, and subatomic particles.

Author: Jackie DiGiovanni
Published on: June 29, 2005 Douglas D. Osheroff - Superfluid Helium-3 Douglas Osheroff was born in Aberdeen, Washington. His father was a doctor and his mother was a nurse. He developed an early interest in science. At age six, he would take apart his toys to study the electric motors inside. In high school, he built an X-ray machine from used parts. He enjoyed physics and chemistry classes. Osheroff enrolled at California Tech where he found classes challenging. Osheroff writes: Years later, when Caltech was offering me a faculty position, I confided that I did not have a very illustrious career as an undergraduate. To this remark the division chair replied "That's OK Doug, we are not hiring you to be an undergraduate." During his senior year, he worked in David Goodstein's low temperature laboratory, and he became fascinated with the physics of low temperatures. He graduated in 1967 with a BS and was accepted for graduate studies at Cornell. He worked with David Lee, in the low temperature laboratory. And he met Phyllis Liu, whom he would later marry. He received a Ph.D. in 1973. In November, 1971, working late in the lab, Osheroff noted unexpected behavior in a helium-3 experiment. After taking careful notes and replicating his results, he phoned his advisors, at 3 in the morning, and they knew they had found the conditions at which helium-3 changes to a superfluid, a liquid that moves with almost no resistance. He would later share the Nobel Prize in Physics for this discovery.

Osheroff Stanford University, California, USA Title: "How Advances in Science Are Made " Date: 21 September 2005, Wednesday Time: 6 pm – 7:30 pm Venue: Lim Seng Tjoe Lecture Theatre (LT27), Faculty of Science, NUS
Abstract: Those advances which most change the way we think about Nature cannot be anticipated. In addition, the applications of this new knowledge or technology can often not be anticipated, even after the advance has occurred. How then are such advances made, and are there strategies that scientists and funding agencies can employ to increase the chances of making such an advance? The speaker will illustrate these ideas by considering several important discoveries, and chains of events that have allowed advances to have important impact far beyond the fields in which the original advances had occurred. Biodata: Douglas D. Osheroff was born and raised in Aberdeen, Washington, a logging town in the Pacific Northwest. There he attended public schools. He did his undergraduate work at Caltech, receiving his B.S. in physics in 1967. His graduate work was done at Cornell University, where his Ph.D. thesis work resulted in the discovery of three superfluid phases of liquid
