  Louis Nel

Louis Eugne Flix Nel (November 2, 1904 – November 17, 2000), a French physicist born in Lyons, was corecipient (with the Swedish astrophysicist Hannes Alfvn) of the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1970 for his pioneering studies of the magnetic properties of solids. His contributions to solid state physics have found numerous useful applications, particularly in the development of improved computer memory units. About 1930 he suggested that a new form of magnetic behavior might exist - called antiferromagnetism. Above a certain temperature (the Nel temperature) this behaviour stops. Nel pointed out (1947) that materials could also exist showing ferrimagnetism. Nel has also given an explanation of the weak magnetism of certain rocks, making possible the study of the past history of Earth's magnetic field.
