Felix Bloch was born in Zurich, Switzerland, on October 23, 1905, as the son of Gustav Bloch and Agnes Bloch ( Mayer). From 1912 to 1918 he attended the public primary school and subsequently the "Gymnasium" of the Canton of Zurich, which he left in the fall of 1924 after having passed the "Matura", i.e. the final examination which entitled him to attend an institution of higher learning. Planning originally to become an engineer, he entered directly the . After one year's study of engineering he decided instead to study physics, and changed therefore over to the Division of Mathematics and Physics at the same institution. During the following two years he attended, among others, courses given by Debye , Scherrer, Weyl, as well as , who taught at the same time at the University of Zurich University of Leipzig , where he received his degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the summer of 1928 with a dissertation dealing with the quantum mechanics of electrons in crystals and developing the theory of metallic conduction. Various assistantships and fellowships, held in the following years, gave him the opportunity to work with Pauli , Kramers, Heisenberg Bohr , and Fermi , and to further theoretical studies of the solid state as well as of the stopping power of charged particles.

Bloch, Felix Felix Bloch E.M. Purcell ) the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1952 for developing the nuclear magnetic resonance method of measuring the magnetic field of atomic nuclei. Bloch's doctoral dissertation (University of Leipzig, 1928) promulgated a quantum theory of solids that provided the basis for understanding electrical conduction. Bloch taught at the University of Leipzig until 1933; when Adolf Hitler came to power he emigrated to the United States and was naturalized in 1939. After joining the faculty of Stanford University, Palo Alto, Calif., in 1934, he proposed a method for splitting a beam of neutrons into two components that corresponded to the two possible orientations of a neutron in a magnetic field. In 1939, using this method, he and Luis Alvarez (winner of the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1968) measured the magnetic moment of the neutron (a property of its magnetic field). Bloch worked on atomic energy at Los Alamos, N.M., and radar countermeasures at Harvard University during World War II. Bloch returned to Stanford in 1945 to develop, with physicists W.W. Hansen and M.E. Packard, the principle of

Felix Bloch (born 1905) Nobel Prize for Physics 1952 (in conjunction with E. Purcell, USA) Zurich-born Felix Bloch was determined to become an engineer when he enrolled at the Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich in 1924, but after one year he changed to physics, a department which at the time could boast any number of outstanding scientists: Debye, Scherrer, Weyl, Schroedinger, etc. Their lectures aroused Bloch's interest in the new theories about electromagnetism. After Schroedinger left in 1927, Bloch and Heisenberg moved to the University of Leipzig where he wrote his doctoral thesis: an avant-garde theory about the electrical conductivity of metals and non-conducting materials which was a fundamental step in the future of semi-conductors. Bloch subsequently worked at various institutions where he became acquainted with some important physicists, including Pauli , Bohr and Fermi.

“Reading Between the Spectral Lines: A Look at the Co-Production of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectrometers by Varian Associates and Organic Chemists, 1956-1969.” Jody A. Roberts Virginia Tech In 1952, Felix Bloch and Edward Purcell received the Nobel Prize in physics “ for their development of new methods for nuclear magnetic precision measurements and discoveries in connection therewith.” By 1956, Varian Associates (started by Block and other Stanford physicists) had begun marketing Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectrometers to organic chemists. In this paper, I explore the co-production of these instruments by Varian Associates and the organic chemists who used them. To accomplish this task, I investigate abstracts and advertisements contained in the Journal of Organic Chemistry A thorough investigation of the abstracts provides a window into how organic chemists used this new instrument. A look at the advertisements—published by Varian Associates—gives us an idea of how NMR spectrometers existed in the eyes of Varian and how they attempted to accommodate the needs of the organic chemists. The case of the adoption of NMR spectroscopy by organic chemists sheds light on two historiographical themes in the history of technology.

20. Stanford University Department Of Physics - Bloch Auditorium: The End Of An Era dedicated as the felix bloch Auditorium. bloch, who died in 1983, taught at Stanfordfor fifty years and in 1952, became the university's first nobel laureate. http://www.stanford.edu/dept/physics/newsletter/97/tank.html

The End of an Era The forty-year old Bloch Auditorium, also known as the Physics "tank", has been demolished in anticipation of a new regional teaching facilty, currently under construction. The new facility will be located in the space which was formerly a parking lot in front of the Varian building. The newly cleared site will be redesigned to form a pathway linking the Inner Quad to the new Science and Engineering Quadrangle, which is scheduled for completion in 1998. The tank was built in 1957, and following a renovation project in 1992, it was dedicated as the Felix Bloch Auditorium. Bloch, who died in 1983, taught at Stanford for fifty years and in 1952, became the university's first Nobel laureate. A metal plaque commemorating Professor Bloch and his scientific achievements will be hung in a classroom in the new SEQ teaching facility when it opens. Physics will share the new facility with the biology and chemistry departments. Construction delays have created some challenges for physics faculty, who are using videotaped demonstrations and occupying classrooms scattered throughout the campus until the new facility is ready to occupy. Barring further delays, the new teaching facility should be ready for use at the beginning of winter quarter. The McCullough renovation and McCullough Annex construction (advanced materials research building) have begun in earnest, so that we are now surrounded on three sides by active construction projects! However, when complete, these new facilities will improve both the classroom instruction and the research efforts within the Department.
