Why Is Rolf Widerøe Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Rolf Widerøe was a Norwegian accelerator physicist who was the originator of many particle acceleration concepts, including the resonance accelerator and the betatron accelerator. Early life Widerøe was born in Kristiania in 1902 as a son of the mercantile agent Theodor Widerøe and Carla Johanne Launer . He was a brother of the aviator and entrepreneur Viggo Widerøe who became the founder of the Norwegian airline Widerøe. After his A-level exams in the summer of 1920 at the Halling School in Oslo, Widerøe left for the university of Karlsruhe, Germany, to study electrical engineering.
