Daniel Kleppner lived in a family with no scientific background, with one older brother and one younger sister. He and his older brother built various objects, such as [[electronic devices]]. Kleppner also learned [[woodworking]], which soon became his lifelong hobby. |
|||
In high school, Kleppner's interest in physics was rejuvenated by an excellent teacher. |
|||
By the time Kleppner graduated, he already knew that he would be in the field of physics for the rest of his life. |

Daniel Kleppner (born 1932) is an American physicist who is the Lester Wolfe Professor Emeritus of Physics at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and co-founder and co-director of the MIT-Harvard Center for Ultracold Atoms. His areas of science include atomic, molecular, and optical physics, and his research interests include experimental atomic physics, laser spectroscopy, and high precision measurements.[2]
Together with Robert J. Kolenkow, he authored a popular textbook An Introduction to Mechanics for advanced students.[3]
Biography
[edit]Parents
[edit]Kleppner's father was Otto Kleppner, founder of an advertising agency.[4]
Education and career
[edit]Kleppner graduated from Williams College with a B.A. in 1953 in Williamstown, Massachusetts. He also attended Cambridge University in England with a B.A. in 1955, and Harvard University, he attended the Harvard Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, with a Ph.D. in 1959.[5]
In the 1950s, Kleppner became a physics doctoral student at Harvard University, where he worked under Norman Ramsey. Here, Kleppner took the concepts behind an ammonia maser and applied them to a hydrogen maser, which became his Ph.D. thesis. Kleppner did important research into Rydberg atoms.[6]
Later he became interested in creating a hydrogen Bose–Einstein condensate (BEC). In 1995, a group of researchers, including Kleppner's former students, made a BEC using rubidium atoms. It was not until 1998 that Kleppner and Tom Greytak finally created a hydrogen BEC.[7]
Honors and awards
[edit]Kleppner has been the recipient of many awards including
- 1991 Lilienfeld Prize,
- 1991 William F. Meggers Award,[8]
- 1997 Oersted Medal,
- 2005 Wolf Prize in Physics,[9]
- 2006 National Medal of Science
- 2007 Frederic Ives Medal,
- 2014 Benjamin Franklin Medal,[10] and
- 2017 American Physical Society Medal for Exceptional Achievement in Research.[11]
Within MIT he won the institute's prestigious James R. Killian, Jr. Faculty Achievement Award, conferring him the title of Killian Award Lecturer[12] for 1995-1996.[13]
He was elected the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1986,[14] a Fellow of OSA in 1992,[15] the French Academy of Sciences in 2004,[16] and the American Philosophical Society in 2007.[17]
