Isidor Isaac Rabi (/ ˈ r ɑː b i /; born Israel Isaac Rabi; July 29, 1898 – January 11, 1988) was an American physicist who received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1944 for his discovery of nuclear magnetic resonance, which is used in magnetic resonance imaging.

He was awarded the Medal for Merit, the highest civilian award in World War II, in 1948, the King’s Medal for Service in the Cause of Freedom the same year, and is an Officer of the Legion of Honour. He is an honorary D. Sc. of Princeton, Harvard, and Birmingham Universities.

Isidor Isaac Rabi was an American physicist who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1944 for his invention (in 1937) of the atomic and molecular beam magnetic resonance method of observing atomic spectra.

Isidor Isaac Rabi was born in Rymanov, Austria (now in Poland), on July 29, 1898. He was brought to the U.S. as a child the following year. He earned his bachelor's degree in chemistry from Cornell University in 1919 and his Ph.D. from Columbia University in 1927.

Isidor Isaac Rabi won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1944 for his development of a technique for measuring the magnetic characteristics of atomic nuclei.

Isidor Isaac Rabi was awarded the 1944 Nobel Prize in physics for his development of the atomic and molecular beam magnetic resonance method of observing atomic spectra. This method (developed in the 1930s) made it possible to measure the magnetic properties of atoms, atomic nuclei, and molecules.
