The Physicist Rolf Widerøe – a Giant in the History of Accelerators Springer Biographies Obsessed by a Dream The Physicist Rolf Widerøe – a Giant in the History of Accelerators AASHILD SØRHEIM Springer Biographies Te books published in the Springer Biographies tell of the life and work of scholars, innovators, and pioneers in all felds of learning and throughout the ages. Prominent scientists and philosophers will feature, but so too will lesser known personalities whose signifcant contributions deserve greater recognition and whose remarkable life stories will stir and motivate readers. Authored by historians and other academic writers, the volumes describe and analyse the main achievements of their subjects in manner accessible to nonspecialists, interweaving these with salient aspects of the protagonists’ personal lives. Autobiographies and memoirs also fall into the scope of the series.

Particular about his after-shave; trousers carefully pressed; gallant; cheerful in dance and fuent in speech. Knows where the martini glasses are stored, preferably in neat lines. Accurate German grammar. Less accurate English, but enthusiastically expressive. When he addresses a meeting his message is clear, whether it be about the storage of atomic waste or the treatment of cancer. He is working in the garden, wearing a Mao suit that he bought in China. What will the neighbours think? As if he would bother about that. His wife might, but not him. He has brought some plants from overseas, carefully transported in test tubes in his hand baggage. Home now, he is planting the cuttings carefully in his overgrown garden, which despite all his loving care looks like a wilderness. When he has a cold, he treats it by dipping a plug of cotton wool in red wine and putting it in his nostril. Doses himself with dietary supplements and just to be sure, thumps his chest seven or nine times. ‘Alternative med- icine’ some ten years before it became fashionable, practised by a man who has several honorary doctorates in medicine and is among the company of the great physicists. Even before he had completed his doctorate at the age of 25, electrical engineering companies were lining up to headhunt him. Philips, AEG, Siemens, Brown Boveri or ASEA—he has either worked there himself or has good friends who are senior fgures in one company or another. Ever since his student days, he has been almost married to his job. But he reads a bed- time story and says the evening prayer with his children every evening. On Sundays he dons knee breeches, packs a thermos and a lunch pack and goes vii viii Preface walking with his family, carrying a framed Bergans rucksack, Norwegian 1950’s style. Te proper gear, no nonsense, and speaking Norwegian. Tat is when we are Norwegian! Or he takes the car and the old, worn picnic basket with the plastic plates, the cutlery fastened inside the lid with leather straps and a methylated spirit stove to heat the sausages. When the nephews visit during the school holidays he generously takes them along too, even though they think he is a miser. Te meal service doesn’t exactly match their expecta- tions of what a famous uncle overseas can ofer, but he is a bit odd, exciting to be with, a perfect uncle. Formative experience on the ski trails in the Nordmarka forest north of Oslo has grown into a love of the Alps. His three children, one after another, have to be taught the European style of downhill ski-ing. But frst they have to climb up, preferably alongside the line of the ski-lift. Or he takes them to a chateau in France on a visit to the director of Martell, who apparently is one of his father’s business contacts. Or at Easter to a big family gathering at a friend’s cabin in the Norwegian mountains. Or to a summer gathering at the family’s country house by the Oslo Fjord. High and low. Hut and coun- try house. Never dull. Variety in abundance. He became a father again at the age of 70. He registered over 200 patents, in various countries. He has medals and honours from all around. He has a research prize named after him. Plays tennis. Ice bathes in his own pool. Swims every morning. Lectures every week, at a prestigious technical school in Zurich. Is brought in as a consultant on major international projects. Manufactures equipment for treating cancer. Tat is to say, that’s what he really does. Either he has deceived the Germans during the war, or they have deceived him. Or perhaps they have deceived each other, or us. Who knows? But he doesn’t talk about that. Rolf Widerøe is no ordinary man. Just by being himself, he has a pres- ence, an aura. All who know him become excited when they speak of him: family members, colleagues, others. A mixture of the socially awkward, almost psychopathic, always-far-away-in-his-own-thoughts nerd and the sensitive, warm, playful person, reliable and responsible. Some say he is single-minded and thinks only about his research. But he is sociable, eccen- tric, excitable, naïve. We could always turn to him when we had a problem. He was close. He was distant. He saw us. He didn’t see us. It all hangs together, but doesn’t fully make sense. Not all at once. Or maybe it does. He was so many. You name it. It depends on having eyes to see it. You need to have an eye for nuances, see things from several perspec- tives, and not try to see everything all at once. Preface ix I would like you to meet this person, and I am almost certain you have not heard of him before. But I am almost as certain that having met him, you will wonder why he isn’t better known. But frst let me tell you a story of three people. The Zarephath Widow’s Cruse Once upon a time there were three men from diferent countries who hap- pened to meet one and the same person, each in his own time and place. None of them knew each other. Te only things they had in common were that they had once studied physics and that they had met a man who made a strong impression on them. Te frst wrote a book about him. Te second tried to restore his reputation.

The searchable archive of abstracts is located at http://www.clu-in.org/programs/21m2/litsearch.cfm Accumulation of Organochlorine Pesticides by Semipermeable Membrane Devices Using Composite Complex Liao, Long B. and Xian M. Xiaoa, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Guangzhou, China. Chemosphere, Vol 64 No 9, p 1592-1600, Aug 2006 Semipermeable membrane devices have been developed for passive in situ monitoring of organochlorine pesticides in aqueous solution. The device consists of a thin film of neutral lipid triolein enclosed in thin-walled tubing made of composite cellulose acetate (CA) membrane supported by linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE), and is referred to as a CAPE. Test results indicate that the triolein-CAPE (TCAPE) could accumulate hydrophobic pesticides quickly and efficiently in water. In the lab, uptake equilibrium is reached within 20 h. Some mathematical relationships of TCAPE/water partition coefficient, triolein/water partition coefficient, and octanol/water partition coefficient were developed under laboratory conditions. The device was also tested under field conditions, where the average concentration of pesticides in surface water could be estimated by measuring pesticides concentrations in the device.

Av de arresterte ble 7 000 - 8 000 sendt til leire, fengsler eller tukthus i Tyskland eller i andre okkuperte land. Ved krigens slutt var det 5 000 - 6 000 igjen i disse områdene. De øvrige var enten døde eller for noens vedkommende sluppet fri i løpet av krigstiden. De arresterte kan inndeles i følgende fangekategorier: 1. Krigsfangene 2. Konsentrasjonsleirfangene 3.
