http://www.nobel.se/physics/laureates/1996/osheroff-autobio.html
Ethnically, I come from a mixed family. My father was the son of Jewish immigrants who left Russia shortly after the turn of the century, and my mother was the daughter of a Lutheran minister whose parents were from what is now Slovakia. Mostly, however, I grew up in a medical family. My father's father and all his children either became physicians or married them. My parents had met in New York where my father was a medical intern and my mother was a nurse. At the end of World War II, my parents settled in Aberdeen, a small logging town on the west coast of Washington State, where medical doctors were in short supply. Surrounded by natural beauty, it was a perfect place to raise a family, and I was the second of five children.
To this day I grow pale at the sight of blood, and never for a moment considered a career in medicine. Despite this, my father, who was usually engrossed in his medical career, inspired in me passions for both photography and gardening, which were his hobbies when time permitted, as they are mine. Natural science interested me intensely from a very early age. When I was six I began tearing my toys apart to play with the electric motors. From then on, my free hours were occupied by a myriad of mechanical, chemical and electrical projects, culminating in the construction of a 100 keV X-ray machine during my senior year in high school.

in full DOUGLAS DEAN OSHEROFF (b. Aug. 1, 1945, Aberdeen, Wash., U.S.), American physicist who, along with David Lee and Robert Richardson , was the corecipient of the 1996 Nobel Prize for Physics for their discovery of superfluidity in the isotope helium Osheroff received a bachelor's degree (1967) from the California Institute of Technology and a doctorate (1973) from Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y. He was a graduate student working with Lee and Richardson in the low-temperature laboratory at Cornell when the team made its discovery in 1972. The team was investigating the properties of helium-3 under temperatures of just a few thousandths of a degree above absolute zero (-273 C). Osheroff noticed minute jumps in the internal pressure of the sample of helium-3 under investigation, and he drew the team's attention to these small deviations. The researchers eventually concluded that the helium-3 had undergone a phase transition to a superfluid state, in which a liquid's atoms lose their randomness and move about in a coordinated manner. Such a substance lacks all internal friction, flows without resistance, and behaves according to quantum mechanical laws rather than to those of classical fluid mechanics. The discovery of superfluidity in helium-3 enabled scientists to study directly in macroscopicor visiblesystems the quantum mechanical effects that had previously been studied only indirectly in molecules, atoms, and subatomic particles.

Middle-of-night call signals new Nobel
STANFORD Two middle-of-the-night phone calls that came 25 years apart mark the high points of Douglas Osheroff 's scientific career. On April 20, 1972, Osheroff was a slender, dark-haired graduate student with an intense gaze. Working with physicists David Lee and Robert Richardson in the ultra-low-temperature lab at Cornell University, he was exploring an unexpected behavior of helium-3, an uncommon isotope of the element helium. At 2:40 that morning, Osheroff jotted a line in his lab notebook indicating that he and his advisers had found something extremely significant: the point at which helium-3 changes from an ordinary liquid into an extraordinary substance called a superfluid. When it is a superfluid, a liquid moves without any resistance: It is arguably the closest thing to perpetual motion that occurs in nature. Before that night, superfluidity had been discovered in only one other liquid, helium-4, though a number of other researchers had looked for this condition in helium-3 without success. Physicists had largely given up the search. "I still get goose bumps just thinking about it," recalls Osheroff, 51, now the J.G. Jackson and C.J. Wood Professor of Physics. "It was an exciting moment. There was absolutely nobody else in the entire building to share my discovery with. So I waited an hour, until I couldn't stand it any longer, and then I called my advisers."

STANFORD: Physics professor wins Nobel Prize
Douglas Osheroff shares prize for discovery of superfluid helium One year after SLAC professor Martin Perl won the Nobel Prize in physics, Stanford Professor Douglas D. Osheroff heard Wednesday that he has won the same honor. Osheroff, 52, learned of his new Nobel laureate status from an early morning phone call Wednesday. A grumpy Osheroff picked up the phone at 2:30 a.m. "I immediately assumed there was a death in the family, until (the caller) said he was from Stockholm. That was a tip off," he said. Osheroff was a graduate student at Cornell University in New York in 1971 when he and his thesis advisersCornell professors David M. Lee and Robert C. Richardsondiscovered that a rare form of helium becomes a superfluid with unusual properties at an extremely low temperature. Twenty-five years later, the three men are sharing the 1996 Nobel Prize in physics. Osheroff said his research has "no commercial or economic interest. It has to do with our understanding of fundamental properties of matter at low temperatures. . . . That's all the importance that's necessary for this work." "I think it's terrific," said Burton Richter, director of the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center and the 1976 Nobel Prize physics winner. "It's a mark of the strength of physics at Stanford University."

Stanford awarded physics prize for third consecutive year Vicky Anning Champagne flowed for two days running at Stanford University this week as two professors were awarded the Nobel Prize in the fields of economics and physics. On Tuesday, Professor Myron S. Scholes from Stanford's Graduate School of Business heard that he and Harvard colleague Robert C. Merton had won the Nobel Prize for economics. On Wednesday, Professor Steven Chu learned that he had been awarded the Nobel Prize for physics along with two colleagues in Maryland and France. This is the third consecutive year that the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences bestowed the physics prize upon a professor associated with Stanford. Last year, Professor Douglas D. Osheroff won the physics prize, and in 1995, SLAC professor Martin Perl received the same honor. Scholes, 56, learned of his new status at 5:30 a.m. Tuesday morning, when his brother, David, called from New York after hearing the news on the radio. The honor did not come as a complete surprise to Scholes, who has been mentioned over the years as a possible contender for the prize for his pioneering work in the valuation of stock options. "When people say over the years that you've done great work, you say to yourself, 'Maybe it will happen,'" said Scholes. "When you get the call in the morning, it's still a tremendous shock and a great deal of excitement."

NOBEL THOUGHTS Douglas Osheroff
by Marc Abrahams
Douglas Osheroff Douglas Osheroff is a professor of physics at Stanford University. In 1996 he, David Lee, and Robert Richardson were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics "for their discovery of superfluidity in helium-3." [Editor's note: also see the interview with Professor Osheroff that was published in AIR 5:1 . There he discussed the question of when to sleep during a lecture.]
Least? Oh, it would have to be raw onions and olives.
What and where is the worst pizza you ever had?
The worst pizza was in Chamonix, in France. The most mundane cheese... it was terrible.
Did the atmosphere of the restaurant match the food?
Would you advise other scientists to extrapolate form one data point when it comes to pizza?
I suppose the best pizza was on the island of Elba. They have a really nice physics center there, the food was not cheap. It was very thin, semi-rigid crust. Really very elegant pizza.
What was on the pizza?
