Live and act
Bauer studied physics at the Sorbonne with the Agrégation in 1904, was briefly a teacher and then assistant to Jean Perrin and collaborator with Paul Langevin and Marie Curie . He also visited Walther Nernst and Heinrich Rubens in Göttingen and Berlin. In 1912 he received his doctorate on radiation from flames. In 1919 he became Maitre de conferences at the University of Strasbourg and began to deal with para- and ferromagnetism in the laboratory of Pierre-Ernest Weiss . From 1928 he was under Paul Langevin at the physics laboratory of the Collège de France in Paris and dealt with physical chemistry.
During the Second World War he went into hiding as a Jew in Clermont-Ferrand and went to Switzerland .
In 1945 he became professor of physical chemistry at the Sorbonne and head of the laboratory previously headed by Jean Perrin. In 1953 he retired, but remained scientifically active.
He dealt early (already in his dissertation) with Bohr's older quantum theory in France and wrote books on group theory and the interpretation of quantum mechanics.
He attended several Solvay conferences .
