SACHS REPRINTED FROM Biographical Memoirs VOLUME 50 PUBLISHED 1979 BY THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES OF THE UNITED STATES, WASHINGTON, D.C. This biography was originally written by Robert G. Sachs for the Biographical Memoirs of the National Academy of Sciences and appeared in Volume 50 of the series. It is reproduced here, for the World Wide Web, with the permission of the National Academy of Sciences and Robert G. Sachs Steven A. Moszkowski, December 18, 1996 WHEN IN 1963 she received the Nobel Prize in Physics,Maria Goeppert Mayer was the second woman in history to win that prize—the first being Marie Curie, who had received it sixty years earlier—and she was the third woman in history to receive the Nobel Prize in a science category. This accomplishment had its beginnings in her early exposure to an intense atmosphere of science, both at home and in the surrounding university community, a community providing her with the opportunity to follow her inclinations and to develop her remarkable talents under the guidance of the great teachers and scholars of mathematics and physics. Throughout her full and gracious life, her science continued to be the theme about which her activities were centered, and it culminated in her major contribution to the understanding of the structure of the atomic nucleus, the spin-orbit coupling shell model of nuclei.

    Extractions: is role model for women scientists ARGONNE, Ill. (Dec. 13, 1996) While working at Argonne National Laboratory in 1948, physicist Maria Goeppert Mayer developed the explanation of how neutrons and protons within atomic nuclei are structured. Called the "nucelar shell model," her work explains why the nuclei of some atoms are more stable than others and why some elements have many different atomic forms, called "isotopes," while others do not. For this work, she shared the 1963 Nobel Prize in physics. A plaque at the entrance of Argonne's Physics Building honors Argonne physicist Maria Goeppert Mayer. Goeppert Mayer was only the second woman to receive the Nobel Prize in physics, following Marie Curie, and only the fourth American woman to win a Nobel Prize. An associate of Enrico Fermi, Goeppert Mayer took over his courses and worked on separating uranium isotopes as part of the Manhattan Project when Fermi left Columbia University to direct the University of Chicago's Metallurgical Laboratory, the project that created the world's first controlled nuclear chain reaction. Goeppert Mayer and her husband followed Fermi to Chicago in 1945. One of Goeppert Mayer's former students, Robert Sachs, hired her at Argonne at what he called "a nice consulting salary." Sachs would later become Argonne's director.

Jensen of West Germany for their proposal of the shell nuclear model . (The other half of the prize was awarded to Eugene P. Wigner of the United States for unrelated work.) The great stability and abundance of nuclei that have a particular number of neutrons (such as 50, 82, or 126) and the same special number of protons was explained by Mayer in 1949 in terms of the shell nuclear model. This model explained the detailed properties of atomic nuclei in terms of a structure of shells occupied by the protons and neutrons. She and Jensen jointly wrote Elementary Theory of Nuclear Shell Structure

After her marriage in 1930, Mayer left Germany for Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, where her husband, Joseph E. Mayer , taught in the chemistry department and she received an assistantship in the physics department. During most of her career, nepotism rules at universities where her husband worked prevented Mayer from holding full-time positions. After a move to New York, Mayer landed her first paid position in 1941, a half-time teaching post at Sarah Lawrence College . During World War II, she worked with Harold Urey on separating U-235 from natural uranium. In 1946, the Mayers moved to Chicago, where Maria worked as an unsalaried associate professor of physics at the Institute for Nuclear Studies at the University of Chicago . She became a consultant to the Metallurgical Laboratory and then a senior physicist at the newly formed Argonne National Laboratory At Argonne, Mayer's interests turned to nuclear physics, and

    Extractions: Maria Goeppert Mayer Papers Background Maria Goeppert Mayer was born on June 28, 1906 in Kattowitz, Germany, to Friedrich and Maria (nee Wolff) Goeppert. In 1910 she moved with her parents to Gottingen where her father taught pediatrics at the University. She enrolled at the University at Gottingen in the spring of 1924 with the expectation of pursuing a career in mathematics, but soon became attracted to physics and the developing field of quantum mechanics. In 1930 Mayer took her doctorate in theoretical physics under the direction of Nobel prize winners Max Born, James Franck, and Adolf Windaus. While completing her studies at Gottingen she met and married Joseph Edward Mayer, an American post-doctoral fellow working in physical chemistry under James Franck. Together they moved to Baltimore, Maryland where Joseph taught at the Johns Hopkins University. In 1939 they went to Columbia University. There Maria worked under the direction of Harold Urey at the S.A.M. (Strategic Alloy Metals) Laboratory which researched the separation of isotopes of uranium. She co-authored a text entitled STATISTICAL MECHANICS (1940) with her husband. After the war she took a professorship of physics at the Institute for Nuclear Studies, University of Chicago. During this period Mayer began a long correspondence with Edward Teller. In 1948, Mayer began work on nuclear shell structure and the meaning of the "magic numbers"- those nuclei that have a special number of protons. She postulated these numbers to be the shell numbers of a shell model, a "nuclear counterpart to the closed shells of electrons" at the atomic level. In 1950 she met and began a collaboration with Johannes Hans Daniel Jensen which led to the publication of the book entitled ELEMENTARY THEORY OF NUCLEAR SHELL THEORY (1955). In 1963, Maria Mayer was awarded the Nobel Prize jointly with Hans Jensen for their work on the Shell Model.

    Extractions: Maria Goeppert was born on June 28, 1906 in Silesia, Germany. She later moved to Goettingen where she would meet her future husband, Joseph Mayer. They would later marry and move to the United States in 1939. They both worked at Columbia University where they were aquainted with Enrico Fermi. Consequently, the Mayers would work at the University of Chicago where Fermi went which resulted in Maria's discovery of the nuclear shell theory. This was the theory that the protons and neutrons that resided in the nucleus are arranged in shells similar to electrons. For this, Maria Mayer was awarded the 1963 Nobel Prize.

The program is financed by funds from the "University Science Program" (Hochschulwissenschaftsprogramm HWP), in cooperation with other initiatives of the state, such as the Lower Saxony Research Association for Women’s/Gender Research in Science, Technology and Medicine (NFFG). The Maria-Goeppert-Mayer-Professorship supplements these initiatives in the area of teaching. We are interested in all areas of science and humanities. The guest professorship should, however, be especially directed towards those disciplines which are particularly deficient in the area of women’s and gender studies. The person selected for the guest professorship/lectureship should either be a foreign researcher, or a researcher from a German-speaking country who is distinguished for his/her international research and teaching.

    Extractions: Maria Goeppert Mayer Since 1935 many old friends from Germany immigrated to America because of the political situation in Germany. Maria was able to help some of them to come to the USA. She had changed her nationality in 1933. During the next years Maria was happy to play the role of a house wife. She had two children. But her husband encouraged her to continue her studies. They started to write a book together about statistical mechanics. The involvement of the USA in World War II afforted Maria Goeppert Mayer an opportunity to get an interesting job for the first time. She was offered to take part in the Project "SAM". The project was very secret and Maria was not allowed to talk about it. German scientists had had success in several experiments on nuclear fission. The American physicans feared that they could develop an atomic bomb. So they decided to anticipate them. With the help of Einstein they got the permission from the President to build secret labs. They searched all over the country. Maria was instrumental in the success of "SAM". She was aware of the fact that she worked on a terrible weapon and it afflicted her. Maria said to her children, "It is against Hitler not against Germany". After World War II she wanted to use the nuclear power in a peaceful way. The atomic fission should be controlled by civilists and not by military.
