Bernhard Mühlschlegel
Bernhard Mühlschlegel (born September 13, 1925 in Berlin ; † July 18, 2007 in Cologne ) was a German physicist .
Life
He grew up in Berlin W 35 on the Potsdamer Brücke south of the Tiergarten and from 1936 attended the Falk Realgymnasium, which he in his own words "had to leave after eight years at Easter 1943 in order to take up the Reich labor service."
In 1950 he took measurements of light absorption by micro-crystalline powder, which was also the subject of his diploma thesis. In 1953 he did his doctorate at the Humboldt University under Friedrich Possible and was then postdoc in Heidelberg and Munich, where he worked with H. Koppe on the BCS theory of superconductivity .
He spent two years in Urbana, USA, before becoming a professor at the University of Cologne in 1962 , which he made a center for theoretical physics. He also played a leading role in building modern theoretical solid-state physics in Germany. In 1990 he retired.
From 1992 to 1998 he was editor-in-chief of the Annalen der Physik .
