		Gerhard Herzberg, the most distinguished spectroscopist of the present century, passed away at his home in Rockcliff, Ontario, Canada on 3 March 1999.
		Herzberg set up a long absorption tube of 22 m length and using White system of mirrors, he could obtain 5000 m of absorbing path that enabled him to observe the quadrupole spectrum of hydrogen.
		During his lifetime, Herzberg received countless honours, some of these are: Companion of the Order of Canada, an Academician of the Pontifical Academy of Sciences at the Vatican, a Fellow of the Royal Societies of London and Canada and a member of the Canadian Science and Engineering Hall of Fame.

		Gerhard Herzberg was born in Hamburg, Germany, on December 25, 1904, the youngest son in a lower middle-class family.
		For his doctoral research, Herzberg started to study the spectrum of light emitted by doubly ionized Lithium (that is, Lithium atoms with two electrons removed) and accidently discovered the spectrum of the nitrogen molecule.
		During the war, Herzberg, as an alien, was prevented from contributing to wartime research and, in 1945, he went to the University of Chicago and Yerkes Observatory.

		On the basis of Herzberg's well-considered assumption that CH was the probable carrier of the strong but unidentified 4050 A group of cometary lines first discovered by Huggins (1882), he used an interrupted discharge in methane to obtain a laboratory spectrum that seemed to prove him correct (Herzberg 1942 a,b).
