Extractions: Although this paper contains the standard chronological biography of Dr. Arrhenius, our goal is broader. First, we hope to show a more personal view of Dr. Arrhenius as related to us by Dr. Hubert Alyea in an interview. Second, we would like to present an overview of Dr. Arrhenius' Nobel Prize winning work and the difficulty he had in gaining acceptance in the scientific community. Finally we will offer a lab that simulates Dr. Arrhenius's work in hopes that some teachers will let their students experience a little piece of chemical history. Dr. Hubert Alyea worked in Sweden under Dr. S. A. Arrhenius during 1925 and 1926. He was Arrhenius' last graduate student and has very fond memories of the great scientist. The path that led Dr. Alyea to Arrhenius' lab began in 1920 when he entered Princeton at the age of 15. His work and studies were delayed when he contracted polio at the age of 19; however, he feels that the year he spent in bed as a result of his illness was a time of great inner reflection and that he emerged with a strong commitment to accomplish something with his life that would contribute to the good of humanity. After Dr. Alyea graduated from Princeton he was awarded a grant to study with Arrhenius, and he left for Sweden. At the time of Dr. Alyea's arrival, Svante Arrhenius was already 66 years old, and the bulk of his research had been completed. What had been a bustling lab in earlier years now supported only a few graduate students. Dr. Alyea felt this atmosphere was perfect for him; he received the mentoring that he needed to thrive. Although Dr. Alyea worked directly under Beckstrum, Arrhenius' assistant, he recalls how Svante Arrhenius came in to the lab at least twice every day to ask how the work was going and what Alyea planned to do that day.

Extractions: Swedish physical chemist and Nobel Prize winner (1903), famous for his work on electrolytes, who was the first to present a detailed scientific hypothesis of panspermia . In this, he argued that life arrived on Earth in the form of microscopic spores that had been propelled across interstellar space by the radiation pressure of star light. His seminal 1903 paper on the subject was in response to "the failure of repeated attempts made by eminent biologists to discover a single case of spontaneous generation of life". In its fully-developed form, Arrhenius's hypothesis reached a wide audience through his book Worlds in the Making (1908, first published as Varldarnas utveckling in Sweden in 1906). Arrhenius was optimistic that, subject to the low temperatures in space, spores would be able to remain viable for very long periods. As for the effect of solar radiation, although Arrhenius was aware of the potentially lethal effect of ultraviolet on living cells, he insisted that "All the botanists that I have been able to consult are of the opinion that we can by no means assert with certainty that spores would be killed by the light rays in wandering through infinite space." His support for panspermia tied in with his fundamental belief that "all organisms in the universe are related and the process of evolution is everywhere the same." He thought life on other worlds might be common, though he opposed

Extractions: In 1891, Arrhenius declined a professorship offered to him from Giessen, Germany, and soon afterwards he obtained a lectureship in physics at Stockholms H?gskola. In 1895 he became Professor of Physics there. He was in addition Rector from 1897 to 1905, when he retired from the professorship. He had got an invitation to a professorship in Berlin, and the Academy of Sciences then decided (1905) to start a Nobel Institute for Physical Chemistry with Arrhenius as its chief. Initially he had to work in a rented flat, but a new building was inaugurated in 1909. A large number of collaborators came to him from Sweden and from other countries, and helped to give his ideas wider currency. In 1900 Arrhenius published his Larobok i teoretisk elektrokemi (Textbook of theoretical electrochemistry), in 1906 followed Theorien der Chemie (Theories of Chemistry) and Immunochemistry and in 1918 the Silliman lectures Theories of solutions. He took a lively interest in various branches of physics, as illustrated by his theory of the importance of the CO2-content of the atmosphere for the climate, his discussion of the possibility that radiation pressure might enable the spreading of living spores through the universe (panspermy) and by his various contributions to our knowledge of the northern lights. In 1903 appeared his Lehrbuch der kosmischen Physik (Textbook of cosmic physics).

Extractions: Back to "The Physics of Life" This page is copied from " http://www.nobel.se/laureates/chemistry-1903-1-bio.html Svante August Arrhenius was born on February 19, 1859, the son of Svante Gustaf Arrhenius and Carolina Christina Thunberg. His ancestors were farmers; his uncle became Professor of Botany and Rector of the Agricultural High School at Ultuna near Uppsala and later Secretary of The Swedish Academy of Agriculture. His father was a land surveyor employed by the University of Uppsala and in charge of its estates at Vik, where Svante was born. The family moved to Uppsala in 1860. The boy was educated at the Cathedral school where the rector was a good physics teacher. From an early age Svante had shown an aptitude for arithmetical calculations, and at school he was greatly interested in mathematics and physics. In 1876 he entered the University of Uppsala, studying mathematics, chemistry and physics. The practical instruction in physics was not of the best, and in 1881 he went to Stockholm to work under Professor E. Edlund at the Academy of Sciences. Here, Arrhenius began by assisting Edlund in his work on electromotive force measurements in spark discharges but soon moved to an interest of his own. This resulted in his thesis (1884)
