		Geiger was awarded the Ph.D. by the University of Erlangen in 1906 and shortly thereafter joined the staff of the University of Manchester, where he became one of the most valuable collaborators of Ernest Rutherford.
		Moving in 1912 to the Physikalisch-Technische Reichsanstalt (German National Institute for Science and Technology) in Berlin, Geiger continued his studies of atomic structure and, with Walther Bothe, devised the technique of coincidence counting and used it in 1924 to clarify the details of the Compton effect.
		In 1929 Geiger took up a post at the University of Tübingen, where he made his first observation of a cosmic-ray shower.

		Nuclear physicist Hans Geiger, whose surname is known the world over for his invention of the radioactivity measuring device known as the Geiger counter, was born Johannes Wilhelm Geiger in Neustadt-an-der-Haardt, Germany, on September 30, 1882.
		Geiger studied physics at the University of Munich and went on to complete his doctoral degree in the subject at the University of Erlangen in 1906.
		Geiger was also involved in a number of experiments that would lead to Rutherford’s breakthrough theory of the atom, which declared that the nucleus occupies a very small volume at the center of every atom.
