Gustav Hertz (senior) was a lawyer who was one of the brothers of Heinrich Hertz which he had written with Heinrich Rubens and Max Planck as advisors. In his thesis he studied the infrared absorption of carbon dioxide in relation to pressure and partial pressure. In 1913 Hertz was appointed as an Assistant in Physics at the University of Berlin. At Berlin he worked with James Franck. Franck was five years older than Hertz and had been awarded his doctorate by the University of Berlin in 1909. The two began their joint research project in 1913 and continued it until the outbreak of World War I in July-August 1914. Both Hertz and Franck were mobilised when war broke out and their research collaboration necessarily stopped. However the work they had done led to their being jointly awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1925. Their work confirmed experimentally quantum theory as proposed by Bohr by showing that when an electron strikes an atom of mercury vapour, it must possess a certain minimum energy before that energy is absorbed by the atom. Moreover even if the electron had more than this minimum energy, it was only the exact minimum energy which was absorbed.

The war proved unfortunate for Hertz who was severely wounded in action in 1915. After he recovered he was appointed as a Privatdozent at the University of Berlin in 1917. While holding this post he married Ellen Dihlmann in 1919. They had two sons, Carl Hellmuth Hertz, born on 15 October 1920, and Johannes Hertz who both became physicists. Hertz left Berlin in 1920 and worked for five years in the physics laboratory of the Philips Incandescent Lamp Factory at Eindhoven. In 1925 he was appointed Professor of Physics and Director of the Physics Institute at the University of Halle. After being awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1925, Hertz gave his Nobel lecture on The results of the electron-impact tests in the light of Bohr's theory of atoms on 11 December 1926. In that lecture he gave the background to his highly significant experimental results:-

Nobel Lecture Biography Gustav Ludwig Hertz was born in Hamburg on July 22nd, 1887, the son of a lawyer, Dr. Gustav Hertz, and his wife Auguste, In 1925, he was elected Resident Professor and Director of the Physics Institute of the University of Halle, and in 1928 he returned to Berlin as Director of the Physics Institute in the Charlottenburg Technological University. Hertz resigned from this post for political reasons in 1935 to return to industry as director of a research laboratory of the Siemens Company. From 1945 tot 1954 he worked as the head of a research laboratory in the Soviet Union, when he was appointed Professor and Director of the Physics Institute at the Karl Marx University in Leipzig. He was made emeritus in 1961, and since then he has lived in retirement, first in Leipzig and later in Berlin. Hertz's early researches, for his thesis, involved studies on the infrared absorption of carbon dioxide in relation to pressure and partial pressure. Together with J. Franck he began his studies on electron impact in 1913 and before his mobilization, he spent much patient work on the study and measurement of ionization potentials in various gases. He later demonstrated the quantitative relations between the series of spectral lines and the energy losses of electrons in collision with atoms corresponding to the stationary energy states of the atoms. His results were in perfect agreement with

The quantum theory had been proposed in 1913 by the Danish physicist Niels Bohr. Gustav Ludwig Hertz was born on July 22, 1887, in Hamburg, Germany. His uncle was Heinrich Rudolf Hertz, the German physicist who discovered electromagnetic waves in the late 1880's. Gustav Hertz received a doctorate from the University of Berlin in 1911. In 1913, Hertz began working as a research assistant at the Physics Institute of the University of Berlin, where he met Franck. The two scientists collaborated in their research, and they conducted experiments that proved that Bohr's theory of the atom was correct. In 1919, Hertz and Ellen Dihlmann married. They had two sons. Ellen Hertz died in 1941. Hertz and Charlotte Jollasse married in 1943.

He received his doctorate in 1911 under Heinrich Leopold Rubens From 1911 to 1914, Hertz was an assistant to Rubens at the University of Berlin. It was during this time that Hertz and James Franck performed experiments on inelastic electron collisions in gases, known as the Franck–Hertz experiments , and for which they received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1925. During World War I , Hertz served in the military from 1914. He was seriously wounded in 1915. In 1917, he returned to the University of Berlin as a

Their work helped explain the quantized nature of energy transfer, confirmed Niels Bohr 's quantum theory about the existence of the stationary energy states, and laid the foundation for nuclear physics. Jewish by heredity, Hertz was forced out of German academia by the Nazi regime, and he worked on the Soviet Union's atomic weapons program from the close of World War II until 1955. He also studied the infrared absorption spectrum of carbon dioxide, and separation of neon isotopes. His uncle, Heinrich Hertz , discovered electromagnetic radiation.

They forced the electrons to pass through a vapor of mercury and then placed a second wire gauze to catch the electrons that had not bumped into the mercury atoms and had therefore not lost their energy; the electrons that had lost their energy would not hit the second gauze, but would be motionless. They discovered that the loss of energy was negligible at the temperature they started from and so they increased the charge on the metal gauze and continued to track the loss of energy for electrons reaching the screen. They still measured little loss of energy as they slowly increased the voltage. The measurements remained relatively constant until they reached 4.9 volts. At that point, the electron current reaching the detector plunged almost to zero.
