Fritz Houtermans
Friedrich Georg "Fritz" Houtermans (January 22, 1903 – March 1, 1966) was a Dutch-Austrian-German atomic and nuclear physicist born in Zoppot near Danzig, West Prussia. Houtermans made important contributions to geochemistry and cosmochemistry.
==Education==
Houtermans began his studies at the Georg-August University of Göttingen in 1921, and he received his doctorate〔As cited in (Charlotte Riefenstahl ) – Nernst Memorial Website: Houtermans, Fritz. Thesis title: ''Über die Bandenfluoreszenz und die lichtelektrische Ionisierung des Quecksilberdampfes''. Georg-August University of Göttingen, 1927, under James Franck.〕 under James Franck in 1927, the same year Robert Oppenheimer received his doctorate under Max Born. He completed his Habilitation under Gustav Hertz at the Technische Hochschule Berlin, in 1932. Hertz and Franck were Nobel Prize laureates; they shared the 1925 Nobel Prize in Physics.〔Hentschel, 1996, Appendix F; see the entry for Houtermans.〕〔(Houtermans Biography ) – Wolfram〕〔Jungk, 1958, 48.〕
While at Göttingen, Houtermans met Enrico Fermi, George Gamow, Werner Heisenberg, Wolfgang Pauli, and Victor Frederick Weisskopf. Houtermans and Gamow did pioneering work on quantum tunneling in 1928. Houtermans, in 1929, with Robert d'Escourt Atkinson, made the first calculation of stellar thermonuclear reactions.〔Atkinson, R. and Houtermans, F. ''Aufbaumöglichkeit in Sternen'', ''Z. für Physik'' 54 656-665 (1929).〕〔Martin Harwit ''The Growth of Astrophysical Understanding'', ''Physics Today'' Volume 58 Number 11 38 (2003) (Physics Today )〕 Their pioneering calculations were the impetus for Carl Friedrich von Weizsäcker and Hans Bethe, in 1939, to put forth the correct theory of stellar thermonuclear energy generation.〔〔
Charlotte Riefenstahl, who received her doctorate in physics at the University of Göttingen in 1927, the same year as Houtermans and Robert Oppenheimer, was courted by both men. She was no relation to Leni Riefenstahl, the notable German filmmaker.〔Hentschel, Ann M., 2005, 127.〕 In 1930, she left her teaching position at Vassar College and went back to Germany. During a physics conference at the Black Sea resort of Batumi, Riefenstahl and Houtermans were married in August 1930, in Tbilisi, with Wolfgang Pauli and Rudolf Peierls as witnesses to the ceremony.〔Landrock, 2003, 190.〕〔(Charlotte Riefenstahl ) - Nernst Memorial Website〕〔Hentschel, Ann M., 2005, 124.〕〔Khriplovich, 1992, 32.〕 (Three other references cite the year as being 1931.〔〔Bird, 2005, 63 and 69.〕〔Powers, 1993, 85.〕)
