Jakob Louis Snoek
Jakob Louis Snoek (born May 18, 1902 in Utrecht , † December 3, 1950 in Elkhart , Indiana ) was a Dutch physicist .
His parents were Jacob Louis Snoek (1873-1934) and Albertina Paula Dedoes (1874-1943). He married Ada (1900 in Surabaya - 1931), the daughter of Jacob Julius Loogen (1867-1941), with whom he had a son. After her untimely death he married Maria Baltina Bergman (1896 in Rotterdam - 1983 in Northampton , Massachusetts ).
Jakob Louis Snoek received his doctorate from the University of Utrecht and started at the Philips Natuurkundig Laboratorium in Eindhoven , where he continued the work of Willem Elenbaas in 1932 .
He dealt with questions of solid state physics. In 1940 he received a ferrite with a spinel structure that the Japanese Kato and Takei had developed. From around 1941 he worked with Gerhart Wolfgang Rathenau (1911–1989). He made Ferroxcube , Snoek pendulum , Snoek peak , Snoek damping and the Snoek effect known.
After the war there was a patent dispute between TDK and Philips.
In late 1949 he was hired by Horizons Research, Inc. and moved to Shaker Heights , Cuyahoga County in April 1950 . On the evening of December 3, he was involved in a car accident on an icy road near Nappanee on his way to work and died two hours later in Elkhart General Hospital. He is buried in Lake View Cemetery in Cleveland.
