===Early life===

Daniel Kleppner was born on December 16, 1932, in [[New York City]], [[New York (state)|New York]], United States.
He grew up in New York's suburbs, where he lived in a small town.

Kleppner reflects upon his childhood as being "normal, but very happy."<ref>[http://mit150.mit.edu/infinite-history/daniel-kleppner Daniel Kleppner | MIT150 | Massachusetts Institute of Technology 150th anniversary<!-- Bot generated title -->] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140714233654/http://mit150.mit.edu/infinite-history/daniel-kleppner |date=2014-07-14 }}</ref>
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.

After more than twenty years of his career had passed, Kleppner found an interest in [[Rydberg atoms]]. His work in this area led to new research.
Later, Kleppner became very 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.

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

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]

Books

[edit]

Kleppner and Robert J. Kolenkow wrote An Introduction to Mechanics in 1973. 40 years later, Kleppner and Kolenkow returned to edit and publish a second edition in 2013.
