Debye received his early education at the elementary and secondary schools in his home town. He continued his studies at the Aachen Institute of Technology (Technische Hochschule) and gained a …

Debye is a name that resonates in the world of science, especially in physics and chemistry. Peter Debye, a Dutch-American physicist and physical chemist, made groundbreaking contributions that …

Debye reached scientific maturity at exactly the right time and place. Thoroughly grounded in (indeed, one of the great masters of) the classical disciplines of mechanics and electrodynamics, he also …

Debye is a CGS unit (symbol D) named after Peter J.W.Debye, Dutch-American, a physicist and Nobel laureate in Chemistry. It is defined as 1 × 10 statcoulomb-centimetre.

In 1936, Debye received the Nobel Prize for chemistry for his research into the structure of molecules and for the measurement methods he had developed for this research.

Peter Debye was the first Dutch American who was awarded the Nobel Prize, at least as far as we have been able to discover at this point in time. He won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1936 for his …
