Biography

Hans Eduard Suess was born in Vienna, Austria, in 1909. He was the son of Franz E. Suess, former professor of geology at the University of Vienna, and Olga Frenzl Suess. His grandfather was Eduard Suess, who wrote The Face of the Earth, an early work in geochemistry.
Suess studied chemistry and physics at the University of Vienna where he received a Ph.D. in chemistry in 1935. He conducted postgraduate research at the Institute of Chemical Technology in Zurich and the First Chemical University Laboratory in Vienna. In 1938, Suess accepted a position at the University of Hamburg. As assistant professor at the Institute for Physical Chemistry in Hamburg, Suess conducted experiments involving the technical production of deuterium. During World War II, he belonged to the group of German scientists assigned to explore the possibilities for utilizing atomic energy. Suess also served as scientific advisor to the heavy water plant in Vemork, Norway, which was destroyed by Allied bombs in 1943. During the war years, Suess became interested in theories of the origins of the elements, and in 1948 and 1949 he worked with Hans Jensen on the nuclear shell model. Suess was co-author with Jensen on a seminal paper on the nuclear shell model. Jensen was later awarded a Nobel Prize for his participation in the development of this model.
In 1949 Suess received an invitation from Professor Harrison Brown to visit the Institute for Nuclear Studies at the University of Chicago as a research fellow. Suess immigrated to the U.S. in 1950 and spent 18 months in Chicago conducting research in Harold Urey's laboratory. Suess worked as a physical chemist for the U.S. Geological Survey from 1951 to 1955. In 1955, Suess accepted an offer from Roger Revelle to join the Scripps Institution of Oceanography. In 1956, Suess established the La Jolla Radiocarbon Laboratory. The findings of this laboratory, which utilized innovative carbon-14 measurements, included important contributions to many fields of modern science.
Suess was one of the first four professors appointed to the faculty of the University of California, San Diego, upon its inception. He served as professor of geochemistry from 1958 to 1977. His courses included cosmochemistry and radiochemistry. Suess' research has focused on the distribution of carbon-14 and tritium in the oceans, the abundances of the elements, and other problems of cosmochemistry. In 1977, Suess was named professor emeritus by the University of California. While at UC San Diego, Suess also acted as consultant to the International Atomic Energy Agency in Vienna.
Among his accomplishments as an experimental scientist, Suess was responsible for developing and improving radiocarbon dating. In addition, he has contributed to solving problems concerning the origin and synthesis of the elements and the evolution of the solar system. One of Suess' major contributions is work that led to the development of the shell model of the atomic nucleus.
Suess was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1965, the V.M. Goldschmidt Medal in 1974, and the Leonard Medal of the International Meteoritical Society in 1977. He has served many guest professorships at European universities and is a member of several scientific academies, including the National Academy of Science. His bibliography is extensive and notable for its documentation of the development of the carbon-14 dating process.

CORRESPONDENCE

Scope and Content of Series

Series 2) CORRESPONDENCE. Arranged in two subseries: A) General and B) Collected.
A) General: General correspondence contains letters between Suess and several prominent scientists of the twentieth century, as well as faculty members who helped establish the UC San Diego campus. Details about the history of UC San Diego can be gleaned from the correspondence files of several faculty members. Additional correspondence can be found in Series 14. Correspondence regarding writings or grants and proposals can be found in their respective series.
Correspondence files are arranged alphabetically by surname of correspondent. Correspondence for individuals represented by fewer than three items is filed alphabetically in miscellaneous files for each letter of the alphabet. Prominent correspondents include Gustaf Arrhenius, Harrison Brown, Jomar Brun, Werner Heisenberg, Hans Jensen, Joseph Mayer, Maria Goeppert Mayer, Roger Revelle, William Nierenberg, Linus Pauling, Carl Sagan, Mrs. Morton Sobell, Leo Szilard, and Harold Urey.
The Arrhenius correspondence dates from Suess' early years at Scripps and involves exchange of scientific data. Correspondence with Harrison Brown relates to Brown's invitation to Suess to visit the University of Chicago as a research fellow. Suess' immigration difficulties are discussed, and Brown states that Suess must verify that his activities in Germany during World War II were not considered for prosecution at the Nuremberg trials. The Jomar Brun letters contain a discussion of secret war operations and Brun's role in heavy water production.
The Werner Heisenberg correspondence is in German and includes wartime letters that discuss the social responsibility of German scientists under the National Socialist regime. The majority of the correspondence with Hans Jensen is in German and contains many exchanges of scientific data and information. The file contains a letter from Jensen to Roger Revelle (in German) describing Maria Mayer's contribution to the development of the nuclear shell model. Included is correspondence regarding Jensen's proposed UC San Diego faculty appointment, which was precluded by Jensen's death. The Jensen file documents his long friendship with Suess and includes a few items of ephemera.
Correspondence with Maria Mayer dates from 1950 to 1959 and includes subjects related to the University of Chicago and UC San Diego. The file contains a letter from Suess to Roger Revelle recommending that Dr. Mayer be appointed to the UC San Diego faculty. The William Nierenberg file includes a discussion of the nature of Suess' faculty appointment at Scripps Institution of Oceanography. Correspondence with Linus Pauling involves nuclear structure and magic number theory.
The Roger Revelle correspondence dates from 1955 to 1986 and pertains to administrative and scientific matters, including the interchange of carbon dioxide between the atmosphere and the ocean. The Carl Sagan file contains a small amount of friendly interchange of scientific information. Correspondence with Mrs. Sobell includes a request for assistance in obtaining clemency for her husband, Morton Sobell. Suess' response indicates that, unlike his colleague Harold Urey, he declined to help the Sobells. The Harold Urey correspondence documents the collaborative work performed by Urey and Suess, including their book on the abundance of the elements. A discussion, dated 1966, on the state of UC San Diego's architecture may be of interest to UC San Diego historians.
B) Collected Correspondence: The UC San Diego Department of Chemistry chronological files provide a day-to-day record of the activities of Suess' office for the years 1960-1979. The Correspondence Regarding Research Projects During World War II is in German and consists of photostats and typed carbon copies. These letters pertain to scientific research projects conducted at the University of Hamburg during the years 1942-1944. The information is technical and administrative and reflects the coordination of activities between the University, industrial firms, and the German government. While no substantive information about the war is contained in these letters, several pieces are notable for the wartime convention of using the closing expression "Heil Hitler."
