Walther Wilhelm Georg Bothe (January 8, 1891 - February 8, 1957) was a German physicist who won a Nobel Prize in Physics for 1954 (along with Max Born) for his invention of the coincidence circuit.
During the 1920s Bothe used the coincidence method to discovery penetrating radition coming from the upper atmosphere now known as cosmic rays.
In the 1930s Bothe started working at the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute (now the Max Planck Institute) and in 1938 Wolfgang Gentner and Bothe published the energy dependence of the nuclear photo-effect, which ws the first decisive evidence that absorption spectra of nuclei are accumulative and continuous.

 Coincidence circuit - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Walther Bothe shared the Nobel Prize in 1954 "for his discovery of the method of coincidence and the discoveries subsequently made by it." Bruno Rossi invented the electronic coincidence circuit for implementing the coincidence method.
Bothe used two point discharge counters connected to separate fiber electrometers and recorded the fiber deflections on a moving photographic film.
Both devices were intended to be "non-interfering and non-interferable", and so they encorporated a receiver responsive only when several frequencies are combined in the correct order and duration in the "AND" circuit, thus allowing for greatly increased capacity of transmission lines and privacy of messages.

 Bothe, Walther
Bothe's scientific work coincided with the opening up of the vast field of nuclear physics and the results he obtained led to new outlooks and methods.
In 1929, in collaboration with W. Kolhörster, Bothe introduced a new method for the study of cosmic and ultraviolet rays by passing them through suitably arranged Geiger counters, and by this method demonstrated the presence of penetrating charged particles in the rays, and defined the paths of individual rays.
For his discovery of the method of coincidence and the discoveries subsequently made by it, which laid the foundations of nuclear spectroscopy, Bothe was awarded, jointly with Max Born, the Nobel Prize for Physics for 1954.

Bothe taught at the universities of Berlin (1920-31), Giessen (1931-34), and Heidelberg (1934-57).
In 1925 he and Hans Geiger used two Geiger counters to gather data on the Compton effect --the dependence of the increase in the wavelength of a beam of X rays upon the angle through which the beam is scattered as a result of collision with electrons.
With the astronomer Werner Kolhorster, Bothe again applied this coincidence-counting method in 1929 and found that cosmic rays are not composed exclusively of gamma rays, as was previously believed.
