Portions of this entry contributed by Michel Barran Dutch physicist was graduated from the University of Groningen, receiving his Ph.D. in 1879 after having studied with Bunsen and Kirchhoff at Heidelberg (1871-1873). In his doctoral thesis, he gave both theoretical and experimental proofs that Foucault's well-known pendulum experiment should be considered as a special case of a large group of phenomena which can be used to prove the rotation of the Earth. Kamerlingh-Onnes taught at Polytechnic School at Delft (Netherlands) in 1880-1882, during which time he was in close contact with van der Waals, professor of physics in Amsterdam. Kamerlingh-Onnes became a professor of experimental physics at Leiden (1882-1924). Kamerlingh-Onnes's main research goal was to gather experimental evidence for the atomic theory of matter and to give experimental support to van der Waals's corpuscular theory of gazes at low temperatures. He established the Cryogenic Laboratory at Leyden University (1894) which, using the Joule-Thomson effect he produced liquid helium for the first time in 1908. Later, his pupils W. H. Keesom and W. J. de Haas conducted experiments in the same laboratory, which led them still closer to

Heike Kamerlingh Onnes was Dutch winner of the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1913 for his work on low-temperature physics and his production of liquid helium. He discovered superconductivity, the almost total lack of electrical resistance in certain materials when cooled to a temperature near absolute zero.
Heike Kamerlingh Onnes was born on September 21, 1853, at Groningen, The Netherlands. His father, Harm Kamerlingh Onnes, was the owner of a brickworks near Groningen; his mother was Anna Gerdina Coers of Arnhem, the daughter of an architect. Thereafter he returned to Groningen, where he passed his "doctoraal" examination (approx. M.Sc.) in 1878 and obtained the doctor's degree in 1879 with a remarkable thesis " Nieuwe bewijzen voor de aswenteling der aarde " (New proofs of the rotation of the earth). In his doctoral thesis, he gave both theoretical and experimental proofs that Foucault's well-known pendulum experiment should be considered as a special case of a large group of phenomena which can be used to prove the rotation of the Earth. Meanwhile in 1878 he had become assistant at the Polytechnicum (Polytechnic School) at Delft, working under Bosscha, in whose place he also lectured in 1881 and 1882, during which time he was in close contact with van der Waals, professor of physics in Amsterdam. In 1881 he published a paper

Awards and Honors at SLAC Zhi-Xun Shen, associate professor of physics and applied physics at SSRL, was awarded the H. Kamerlingh Onnes Prize and a $5,000 award. Citation: " For elucidating the electron structure of oxydic, high-temperature superconductors and other strongly interacting electron materials by angular resolved photoelectron spectroscopy ." As part of the ceremony, Shen will present a paper in Houston this month at the 6th International Conference on Materials and Mechanisms of Superconductivity and High-Temperature Superconductors . The Onnes Prize is awarded for outstanding experiments which illuminate the nature of superconductivity other than materials. Sponsored by Elsevier, Publisher of Physica C-Superconductivity and its Applications. Shen received his BS degree in 1983, Fudan University and his Masters in 1985 from Rutgers University. He was awarded a PhD in 1989 from Stanford University. Shen is the winner of numerous other awards: the Alfred P. Sloan Research Fellow, 1993; the NSF Young Investigator Award, 1993; and the Materials Sciences Research Award for Outstanding Scientific Accomplishment in Solid State Physics from the DOE, 1994. Heike Kamerlingh-Onnes was the winner of the 1913 Nobel Prize in Physics for his investigations on the properties of matter at low temperatures which led, among other things, to the production of liquid helium.

In oktober 2001 worden de winnaars van de Nobelprijzen weer bekend gemaakt. De bekendmaking in oktober en de uitreiking in december hebben dit jaar een bijzonder karakter, omdat de Nobelprijs honderd jaar bestaat. Meer dan 700 laureaten hebben voor hun wetenschappelijke of literaire werk of voor hun inspanningen ten behoeve van de wereldvrede de Nobelprijs ontvangen.
Het testament van Alfred Nobel
Toen Alfred Bernard Nobel in 1896 op 63-jarige leeftijd overleed, liet hij een vermogen na; omgerekend naar de huidige koers 500 miljoen gulden. In zijn testament, vier handbeschreven velletjes papier, bepaalde Nobel dat dit geld ten goede moest komen van een stichting. Deze kreeg de opdracht met de rente van dit bedrag een prijs in te stellen voor 'die personen die zich verdienstelijk hebben gemaakt voor de mensheid.' Nobel bepaalde vijf gebieden waarin personen zich konden onderscheiden: natuurkunde, scheikunde, geneeskunde, literatuur en de vrede.
Het testament werd bestreden door de erfgenamen, maar een groep vrienden van Nobel spande zich in om zijn wens uit te voeren. Vijf jaar na de dood van Nobel vond in 1901 de eerste uitreiking van Nobelprijzen plaats. Sindsdien gebeurt dit jaarlijks, en wel op 10 december, de sterfdag van Alfred Nobel.

17. Heike Kamerlingh Onnes - Biography
heike Kamerlingh Onnes was born on September 21, 1853, at Laboratory (now known asthe Kamerlingh Onnes Laboratory) in a that he was awarded the nobel Prize.
http://www.nobel.se/physics/laureates/1913/onnes-bio.html
Heike Kamerlingh Onnes was born on September 21, 1853, at Groningen, The Netherlands. His father, Harm Kamerlingh Onnes, was the owner of a brickworks near Groningen; his mother was Anna Gerdina Coers of Arnhem, the daughter of an architect.
After spending the allotted time at the "Hoogere Burgerschool" in his native town (secondary school without classical languages), the director of which was the later Professor of Chemistry at Leyden J.M. van Bemmelen, he received supplementary teaching in Greek and Latin. In 1870 he entered the University of Groningen, obtained his "candidaats" degree (approx. B.Sc.) the following year, and then went to Heidelberg as a student of Bunsen and Kirchhoff from October 1871 until April 1873. Thereafter he returned to Groningen, where he passed his "doctoraal" examination (approx. M.Sc.) in 1878 and obtained the doctor's degree in 1879 with a remarkable thesis Nieuwe bewijzen voor de aswenteling der aarde (New proofs of the rotation of the earth).

Kamerlingh Onnes, Heike
Kamerlingh Onnes By courtesy of the Museum Boerhaave, Leiden, Neth. (b. Sept. 21, 1853, Groningen, Neth.d. Feb. 21, 1926, Leiden), Dutch winner of the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1913 for his work on low-temperature physics and his production of liquid helium. He discovered superconductivity , the almost total lack of electrical resistance in certain materials when cooled to a temperature near absolute zero. From 1871 until 1873 Kamerlingh Onnes studied and worked at Heidelberg University, notably with the German physicists Robert Bunsen and Gustav Kirchhoff. Awarded a doctorate by the University of Groningen (1879), he taught at the Polytechnic School in Delft (1878-1882). From 1882 to 1923 he served as professor of experimental physics at the University of Leiden. Influenced by the work of Johannes van der Waals, Kamerlingh Onnes investigated the equations describing the states of matter and studied the general thermodynamic properties of liquids and gases over a wide range of pressures and temperatures. He founded (1894) and built up the Cryogenic Laboratory (now known by his name) that established Leiden as the low-temperature research centre of the world. From 1895 to 1906 he concentrated on perfecting cryogenic experimental techniques and studied metals and fluids at low temperatures. Having built an improved hydrogen-liquefaction machine two years previously, he succeeded in liquefying helium in 1908. His attempts to solidify helium were fruitless until Willem Hendrik Keesom, his student and successor as director of the Kamerlingh Onnes Laboratory, achieved the feat in 1926.

Heike Kamerlingh Onnes (1853-1926) ,born on September 21, 1853, in Groningen, The Netherlands, was the brother of Menso Kamerlingh Onnes. Menso's son was Harm Kamerlingh Onnes who was Titia's grandfather. This is the reason why we wanted to mention him on this page. Heike won a Nobel prize in 1913, as he liquefied Helium, for the first time in 1908. Two friends of Heike: On the left: Hendrik Lorentz, Nobel prizewinner 1902. (stamp issued December 10th, 1962, Lorentz is the person in front). On the right: Albert Einstein, Nobel prizewinner 1921. (stamp issued November 24th 1981). There is a lot to tell about Heike, but as I like to make pages about stamps, and showed the stamps in relation to Heike in my collection, you will find a few nice links below, that tell it all.
