Klaus Stelzer

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Klaus Stelzer (born August 6, 1930 in Stuttgart ; † March 12, 2013 ) was a German physicist and professor at the Goethe University in Frankfurt am Main .

Life

Stelzer studied physics at the Eberhard-Karls-Universität Tübingen from the winter semester 1950/1951 and became a member of the Tübingen fraternity Derendingia . He continued his studies at the University of Zurich and the University of Stuttgart . He did his diploma thesis at the Hechingen high-voltage laboratory of the Max Planck Institute for Stratospheric Physics. In 1957 he received his diploma in physics.

From 1957 to 1958 he was involved in the construction and commissioning of the Frankfurt research reactor and was appointed to be responsible for the technical safety of the reactor. In 1964 he received his doctorate for a thesis on the dynamic behavior of nuclear reactors. rer. nat. The habilitation with a thesis on the structure of heavy nuclei took place in 1969.

In 1972 he was appointed full professor at the Institute for Nuclear Physics at the University of Frankfurt. From 1973 to 1974 Stelzer was visiting professor at Duke University Durham, USA.

His main research interests were nuclear structure studies at the research reactor in Frankfurt and the Van-de-Graaff accelerator with the development of experimental methods of gamma and neutron spectroscopy.

He retired in 1995.
