Willard Frank Libby Willard Libby was an American Chemist, best known for his development of Carbon 14 (radiocarbon) dating techniques. Libby was born Dec. 17, 1908 in Grand Valley, Colorado. He obtained his Ph.D. from the University of California-Berkeley University of Chicago . He also conducted research there at the Institute of Nuclear Studies until 1959. Libby then found himself back at the University of California as Director of the Institute of Geophysics and Planetary Physics. He served in that capacity until his death. In 1947, Libby and his students at the Institute for Nuclear Studies developed the method of C14 dating using a highly sensitive Geiger counter. Carbon 14 is an unstable radioactive isotope that decays at a measurable rate upon the death of an organism. Libby was able to determine the age of organic artifacts by measuring the amount of remaining C14. He tested his process on objects of known age, such as timbers from Egyptian tombs. The tests proved reliable and it was assumed that this technique was accurate for objects up to 50,000 years of age. Later, this was extended to 70,000 years. Radiocarbon Dating Libby died Sept. 8, 1980 in Los Angeles of a lung ailment. He was cremated.

Libby Willard Frank Né le 17 décembre 1908 à Gran Valley, dans le Colorado, Frank Willard Libby étudie à l'Université de Berkeley (Californie) et, en 1933, obtient son doctorat en chimie. Il demeure dans cet établissement comme assistant, puis comme professeur, jusqu'en 1941. Pendant la guerre, il collabore au projet Manhattan à l'Université de Columbia et travaille sur une méthode de séparation des isotopes pour la fabrication de l'arme nucléaire. A la fin du conflit,Libby accepte un poste de professeur de chimie à l'Université de Chicago. Dès 1946, son attention se porte sur le radiocarbone 14, et plus tard sur le tritium, isotope de l'hydrogène, dont il fait la preuve qu'il est produit par les radiations cosmiques. Libby a été à deux reprises lauréat de la Fondation Guggenheim pour l'Avancement et le Diffusion de la Science. L'Université de Columbia lui a décerné en 1954 la distinction de Chancelor Award . Il est membre de la Commission de L'Energie Atomique depuis la fin de la guerre, époque à laquelle il est devenu professeur de chimie de l'Université de Chicago. Militant antinucléaire, il a participé en 1955 à la première conférence de Genève sur l'utilisation pacifique de l'énrgie atomique. Enfin, à paritr de 1959, il s'est fixé à Los Angeles, où il exerce les fonctions de directeur de Géophysique et de Physique Planétaire à l'Université. Libby fut le premier à proposer une méthode de datation au radiocarbone C s'appliquant jusqu'à 40000ans. Travaillant avec son élève S.Ruben, avant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, il essaya d'obtenir du radiocarbone en bombardant du nirate d'ammonium par un flux de neutrons dans le cyclotron du laboratoire de radiations de Berkeley. Mais ce fut un échec, car les deux chercheurs avaient sous=estimé la période du radiocarbone, l'évaluant à environ trois mois, alors qu'on sait aujourd'hui qu'elle est de 5730 ans!

Willard Frank Libby Willard Frank Libby American chemist whose technique of carbon-14 (or radiocarbon) dating provided an extremely valuable tool for archaeologists, anthropologists, and earth scientists. For this development he was honoured with the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1960. Libby received his Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley, where he was a member of the faculty from 1933 to 1945. He was with the Institute for Nuclear Studies at the University of Chicago (1945-59) and then was professor of chemistry at the University of California, Los Angeles, until his death. While associated with the Manhattan Project (1941-45), Libby helped develop a method for separating uranium isotopes, an essential step in the creation of the atomic bomb. In 1946 he showed that tritium, the heaviest isotope of hydrogen, was produced by cosmic radiation. The following year he and his students developed the carbon-14 dating technique. This technique is used to date material derived from former living organisms as old as 50,000 years. It measures small amounts of radioactivity from the carbon-14 in organic or carbon-containing materials and is able to identify older objects as those having less radioactivity. Libby also served on the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission (1955-59) and wrote Radiocarbon Dating (1952).

Willard Frank Libby was born in Grand Valley, Colorado, on 17th December, 1908, to Ora Edward Libby and his wife Eva May ( Rivers). He attended grammar and high schools near Sebastopol, California, between 1913 and 1926, moving to the University of California at Berkeley in 1927, where he studied till 1933, taking his B.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in 1931 and 1933 respectively. He was appointed Instructor in the Department of Chemistry at California University (Berkeley) in 1933 and during the next ten years was promoted successively to Assistant and then Associate Professor of Chemistry. He was awarded a Guggenheim Memorial Foundation Fellowship in 1941 and elected to work at Princeton University , but on 8th December, 1941, this Fellowship was interrupted for war work on America's entry into World War II, and Libby went to Columbia University on the Manhattan District Project, on leave from the Department of Chemistry, California University, till 1945. At the end of the war, in 1945, Libby accepted the post of Professor of Chemistry in the Department of Chemistry and Institute for Nuclear Studies (now the Enrico Fermi Institute for Nuclear Studies) of Chicago University , remaining there till his appointment by President Eisenhower on 1st October, 1954, as a member of the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission.
