Felix Bloch was a Swiss-born American physicist who won the Nobel Prize in 1952 for his contributions to the theory and experiment of nuclear magnetism. He worked with Pauli, Heisenberg, Bohr, and Fermi at the University of Zurich and Stanford University, and developed the method of nuclear induction for the study of nuclear moments. He also studied the magnetic moment of the neutron and the stopping power of charged particles.
Felix Bloch (1905–1983, Swiss-American) was born in Zurich, Switzerland, on 23 October 1905. He attended the Federal Institute of Technology (Eidgenössische Technische Hochschule) in Zurich to study engineering, changing after one year's study to the Division of Mathematics and Physics at the same institution to study physics.
Felix Bloch was a Swiss-born American physicist who developed a non-destructive technique for observing and measuring the magnetic properties of nuclear particles. He shared the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1952 for this work, which led to the development of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). He also studied ferromagnetism, wave functions of electrons in solids, and neutron scattering.
A biography of Felix Bloch, a historic figure in the development of physics in the twentieth century. He was a pioneer of quantum mechanics, magnetic resonance, and nuclear magnetic resonance. He shared the Nobel prize in physics in 1952 with Purcell for his work on these topics.
