	Bertram Neville Brockhouse (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Brockhouse developed a variant technique known as inelastic neutron scattering, in which the relative energies of the scattered neutrons are measured to yield additional data.
		Brockhouse was educated at the University of British Columbia (B.A., 1947) and at the University of Toronto (M.A., 1948; Ph.D., 1950).
		Brockhouse used inelastic neutron scattering in his pioneering examination of phonons, which are units of the lattice vibrational energy expended by the scattered neutrons.

	NSERC - Bertram Brockhouse: Neutron Radio Man
		Unknown to the young Brockhouse, the 1930s were also the boom years of the science of quantum mechanics, an emerging understanding that the building blocks of matter – neutrons, protons and electrons – behaved simultaneously as both particles and waves.
		Bertram Neville Brockhouse was born in Lethbridge, Alberta, on July 15, 1918, the second child of Israel Bertram Brockhouse and Mable Emily (Neville) Brockhouse.
		Brockhouse’s entry into the work world was expedited when, in the spring of 1949, he was hired by Donald Hurst, head of the Neutron Spectrometer section at the National Research Council’s Atomic Energy Project (later Atomic Energy of Canada Limited, AECL) at the Chalk River Nuclear Laboratories.

	Bertram N. Brockhouse (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
		Bertram Neville Brockhouse was born July 15, 1918 in Lethbridge, Alberta, the son of Israel and Mable Brockhouse.
		Brockhouse's first work at Chalk River, in collaboration with Hurst and M. Bloom, involved him in a series of studies of the resonant scattering of slow neutrons by strong absorbers such as cadmium and samarium.
		Brockhouse next turned his attention to the possibility that neutrons might be used to investigate the "thermal disturbances of the magnetized arrays of...coupled magnetic moments (which) can be described by means of quantized wave excitations called spin waves".
