Fritz Haber - Fritz Haber Fritz Haber (December 9, 1868 - January 29 1934) was a German chemist. He was born in Breslau, Germany and from 1886 until 1891 he studied at the University of Heidelberg under Robert Bunsen, at the University of Berlin in the group of A. W. Hoffmann, and at the Technical College of Charlottenburg (today the Technical University of Berlin) under Carl Liebermann. Before starting his own academic career he worked at his father's chemical business and in the Institute of Technology at Zürich with Georg Lunge. During his time in Karlsruhe from 1894 until 1911 he and Carl Bosch developed the catalytic formation of ammonia from hydrogen and nitrogen. This was important, especially during World War I, since ammonia is used in industrial processes.
Fritz Albert Lipmann - Fritz Albert Lipmann Fritz Albert Lipmann (June 12 1899-July 24 1986) was a co-discoverer in 1945 of coenzyme A. For this, together with other research on coenzyme A, he was awarded half the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1953. Lipmann was born in Königsberg, Germany (now Kaliningrad, Russia), but from 1939 lived and worked in the USA. From 1949-1957 he was professor of biological chemistry at Harvard Medical School. From 1957 onwards, he taught and researched at Rockefeller University, New York City. He was awarded the National Medal of Science in 1966. This article is a stub.

George Gamow - Rutherford at the Cavendish Laboratory, Cambridge, he continued to study the atomic nucleus (proposing the "liquid drop" model) but also worked on stellar physics with Robert Atkinson and Fritz Houtermans. Gamow then worked at a number of establishments before fleeing the increased oppression in Russia and settling at George Washington University in 1934, where he published with Edward Teller, Mario Schoenberg and Ralph Alpher The cosmogenesis paper with Alpher was published as the Alpher-Bethe-Gamow theory, Gamow had added the name of Hans Bethe to make a pun on the first three letters of the Greek alphabet, alpha beta gamma. Gamow was a strong advocate of the Big Bang theory. He remained in Washington until 1954, then working at University of California, Berkeley (1954), University of Colorado (1956-1968).
