## Bio

Bertram Neville Brockhouse was born July 15, 1918, and spent his career finding new ways to peer into condensed matter. He developed neutron spectroscopy, a technique that uses scattered neutrons to reveal how atoms behave inside solids and liquids. The work was painstaking and foundational, the kind that rewrites what experiments can do. In 1994 he shared the Nobel Prize in Physics with Clifford Shull for those contributions to neutron scattering — recognition that arrived decades after the breakthroughs themselves. He died October 13, 2003.
