R�ntgen�s name and his rays became world famous. On 10 December 1901, R�ntgen received the �rst Nobel Prize in Physics. X-rays have lost none of their appeal since then. They still permeate all areas of science, technology and medicine and accompany us in our everyday lives. However, R�ntgen�s scienti�c work cannot be reduced to this one great discovery alone. He was an excellent natural scientist, and his spirit of research is still an example for many scientists today. R�ntgen�s very special interest in precision physics is also more topical than ever. This carefully curated volume offers a multifaceted view of an outstanding natural scientist and provides insights into his personal legacy.Typham this is the title: Wilhelm Conrad R�ntgen A Shining Life for Science
