Marshall Nicholas ROSENBLUTH
b. February 5,1927 - Albany, New York.
d. September 28, 2003 - San Diego, California.
M. N. Rosenbluth, a world-acclaimed scientist,
is one of the ultimate authorities in plasma and thermonuclear
fusion research, often indicated by the sobriquet the "Pope
of Plasma Physics." His theoretical contributions have
been central to the development of controlled thermonuclear
fusion. In the 1950s his pioneering work in plasma instabilities,
together with pioneering works of A. Sakharov, I.Tamm, L.
Spitzer, Jr., L. A. Artsimovich, and others, led to the design
of the TOKAMAK, the principal configuration used for contemporary
magnetic fusion experiments.
In addition to his research achievements,
he has made significant administrative contributions as a
scientific advisor in the fields of energy policy and national
defense.
He is the founder and the first director
of The Institute for Fusion Studies at Austin,Texas. M. N.
Rosenbluth has been the recipient of the E.O.Lawrence Memorial
Award (1964),the Albert Einstein Award (1967),the James Clerk
Maxwell prize in Plasma Physics(1976),and the Enrico Fermi
Award (1986).
M. N. Rosenbluth had been Science Advisor
for the INSTITUTE for ADVANCED PHYSICS STUDIES (presently
a division of The Stefan University) since 1989. He is the
editor-in-chief of the FSRC Book "NEW
IDEAS in TOKAMAK CONFINEMENT" published
by the American Institute of Physics.
M. N. Rosenbluth was a member of the American
Academy of Arts and Sciences and the National Academy of Sciences
of the USA, a Professor Emeritus at the University of California,
San Diego, and a Senior Scientist at General Atomics, San
Diego.

The progress of science presupposes
the possibility of unrestricted communication of all results
and judgments--freedom of expression and instruction in all
realms of intellectual endeavor. The freedom of communication
is indispensable for development and extension of scientific
knowledge. Such an ideal must be sought unremittingly if scientific
thought, and philosophical and creative thinking in general,
are to be advanced as far as possible.
