Karl Glitscher

Karl Slither ( born July 2, 1886 in Mülheim, † 1945) was a German physicist and co-founder of quantum mechanics.

Training

Slither studied under Arnold Sommerfeld at the Ludwig- Maximilians- University of Munich. For his doctoral thesis (1917 ) he compared using the fine structure of spectral Max Abraham's theory that electrons are perfect rigid spheres with uniformly distributed on the surface charge, with the special theory of relativity.

Career

Slither reported in Germany in 1930 and 1931 in the United States a patent for an " artificial horizon indicator" for vehicles and similar platforms to which he ceded to the Company for electric apparatus mbH in Berlin- Marie Felde. The Society for electric apparatus ( Gelap ) was founded in 1920 with the aim of optimizing the technical equipment of the military. The Gelap merged in 1933 with the aero-engine plant of Siemens & Halske for Siemens equipment and machinery GmbH which communication and command systems for military organizations and commercial shipping companies produced.

Death

Slither came in 1945 in the defense of Berlin against the Red Army, where he was employed as a sniper, killed.
