Holtzman effect
The Holtzman effect〔In "Terminology of the Imperium." the glossary of the novel ''Dune'', Frank Herbert defined the Holtzman effect itself as "the negative repelling effect of a shield generator." Interpreting this in conjunction with Herbert's definition of the defensive shield, it is unclear whether the author intended the Holtzman effect to be an original component of his suspensor-nullification effect or a phenomenon created by Holtzman's invention, the shield generator.〕 is a fictional scientific phenomenon in the ''Dune'' universe created by Frank Herbert, beginning with the 1965 novel ''Dune''. The effect is never explained in detail, but it makes (among other things) defensive force shields and instantaneous space travel possible.
Frank Herbert was inconsistent with the spelling of "Holtzman," resulting in the variant spellings "Holtzmann" (1976's ''Children of Dune'') and "Holzmann" (1985's ''Chapterhouse: Dune''). This may be intentional, as Herbert mutated other words and names over the several millennia the ''Dune'' series spans, such as the change of "Arrakis" to "Rakis" and "Caladan" to "Dan" beginning with ''Heretics of Dune'' (1984).
According to the ''Legends of Dune'' prequel trilogy by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson (2002–2004), the Holtzman effect is named after the scientist who discovered it, Tio Holtzman (though for many of its applications, Holtzman in fact takes credit for the mathematical theories of his assistant, Norma Cenva).
