 Rudolph Marcus
Rudolph A. Marcus was born on July 21, 1923, in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
Marcus himself proposed in 1965 that chemiluminescence reactions of a certain type ought to represent the inverted region, but it was not until the end of the 1980s that other, more convincing, experimental verifications could be made.
Marcus was elected to the National Academy of Sciences in 1970 and the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1973.
