Manne Siegbahn Net Worth

Manne Siegbahn was a Swedish physicist who won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1924 for his work on X-ray spectroscopy. He was born in Örebro, Sweden in 1886 and had his schooling in Stockholm and university education in Lund. He discovered a new group of wavelengths, known as the M series, in X-ray emission spectra at the age of thirty and was later appointed full professor at the University of Uppsala. His work on X-ray spectroscopy earned him the Nobel Prize and he later joined the University of Stockholm and was chosen as the first director of the Nobel Institute of Physics. He initiated studies on nuclear physics and the institute is now known as the Manne Siegbahn Institute, a center of excellence for young scientists from all over the world.

During his education he was amanuensis for Johannes Rydberg. In 1908 he studied at the University of Göttingen. He obtained his Ph.D. at the Lund University in 1911, his thesis was titled Magnetische Feldmessungen (magnetic field measurements). He became acting professor for Rydberg when his health was failing, and succeeded him as full professor in 1920. However, in 1922 he left Lund for a professorship at the Uppsala University.

1914

Siegbahn married Karin Högbom in 1914. They had two children: Bo Siegbahn (1915–2008), a diplomat and Politician, and Kai Siegbahn (1918–2007), a Physicist who received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1981 for his contribution to the development of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.

1924

Siegbahn was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1924. He won the Hughes Medal 1934 and Rumford Medal 1940. In 1944, he patented the Siegbahn pump. Siegbahn was elected a Foreign Member of the Royal Society (ForMemRS) in 1954.

1937

In 1937, Siegbahn was appointed Director of the Physics Department of the Nobel Institute of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences. In 1988 this was renamed the Manne Siegbahn Institute (MSI). The institute research groups have been reorganized since, but the name lives on in the Manne Siegbahn Laboratory hosted by Stockholm University.
