Hofstadter, Robert US nuclear physicist who made pioneering studies of nuclear structure and the elementary nuclear constituents, the proton and the neutron. He established that the proton and neutron were not pointlike, but had a definite volume and shape. He shared the 1961 Nobel Prize for Physics. Hofstadter demonstrated that the nucleus is composed of a high-energy core and a surrounding area of decreasing density. He helped to construct a new high-energy accelerator at Stanford University, California, with which he showed that the proton and the neutron have complex structures and cannot be considered elementary particles. Hofstadter was born in New York and educated at City College and Princeton. From 1950 he was at Stanford, where his early work involved bouncing, or scattering, electrons from complex nuclei, such as gold. This produced accurate pictures of the charge distribution within nuclei. Gradually, smaller nuclei were studied by Hofstadter and his team, using electrons of increasing energy. By 1960, accurate data had been obtained for the proton and neutron, revealing the spatial distribution of charge and magnetization within these particles.

Nov. 17, 1990, Stanford, Calif.), American scientist who was a joint recipient of the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1961 for his investigations of protons and neutrons Hofstadter was educated at Princeton University, where he earned a Ph.D. in 1938. He joined the faculty there in 1946, where his principal scientific work dealt with the study of infrared rays, photoconductivity, and crystal and scintillation counters. Hofstadter taught at Stanford University from 1950 to 1985. At Stanford he used a linear electron accelerator to measure and explore the structure of atomic nuclei. He found that both the proton and neutron have a central, positively charged core surrounded by a double cloud of pi-mesons. Both clouds are positively charged in the proton, but in the neutron the inner cloud is negatively charged, thus giving a net zero charge for the entire particle.

Close Please copy/paste the following text to properly cite this HowStuffWorks article: Hofstadter, Robert (1915-1990), an American physicist, won the 1961 Nobel Prize in physics for his research concerning the nucleus (center) of the atom. He precisely measured the size and shape of the proton and the neutron, two particles within the nucleus, and he presented the first reasonably consistent picture of the structure of the nucleus. Hofstadter shared the prize with the German physicist Rudolf Ludwig Mössbauer, who won for his separate research on gamma rays. Hofstadter was born on Feb. 5, 1915, in New York City. In 1935, in New York City. In 1935, he earned a bachelor of science degree in physics from the City College (now City University) of New York. He received both master's and doctoral degrees from Princeton University in 1938. From 1939 to 1941, Hofstadter conducted research and taught physics at the University of Pennsylvania. From 1942 to 1943, during World War II (1939–1945), he was a physicist at the National Bureau of Standards (now the National Institute of Standards and Technology). Hofstadter married Nancy Givan in 1942. They had three children. From 1943 to 1946, Hofstadter worked at Nordeen Laboratories in New York. He was an assistant professor of physics at Princeton from 1946 to 1950.
