Biography:
Tine Tammes was educated in Middelbare Meisjesschool, a secondary school for girls, which did not prepare her for university admission. Therefore, she took private lessons in mathematics, physics, and chemistry after which she enrolled at the University of Groningen. Although she was allowed to attend lectures and practicals, she was not allowed to take the academic examinations. Consequently in order to earn a living she obtained her first teaching certificate in physics, chemistry, and cosmography in 1892 and a second one in botany, zoology, mineralogy, and geology in 1897. The rules that kept Tammes from taking the official examinations were strictly enforced, so she was unable to obtain her doctorate. She taught at MMS until 1897, when she became the assistant of Groningen professor of botany J.W.Moll (1851-1933).

First Female Professor at Groningen University Dutch geneticist, known as Tine. Born 1871.

Dissertation: Onderzoek der trillende platte vliezen

Highest degree: doctor

Fields of interest:

• astronomy

Biography:
Kapteyn was born in Barneveld, and grew up in a boarding school run by his parents, Gerrit Jacobus Kapteyn and the former Elisabeth Cornelia Koopmans. He was the ninth of fifteen children and family life was minimal because of his parents' running of the school. Whereas Kapteyn's older brother, Albertus Philippus (1848-1927) was judged by his father not to be suited for a higher education and was sent to a trade school (he became a well-known engineer, who ran Westinghouse Airbrake Europe), Jacobus showed his talents early and went to the University of Utrecht in 1868, at the age of 17. He took his Ph.D. in 1875 with a dissertation on Onderzoek der trillende platte vliezen (A Study of Vibrating Flat Membranes).
Kapteyn's first position was as observer at the Leiden Observatory (which because of Kaiser had become one of the foremost institutions for position measurements), but in 1877 he accepted the appointment to the new chair of astronomy at the university of Groningen. Had he remained at Leiden, he would undoubtedly have made his career as an observer. At Groningen, however, this was not an option: his requests for a well-equipped observatory fell on deaf ears because of opposition from the existing observatories at Leiden and Utrecht. Instead, he entered an arrangement with David Gill at the Cape Observatory: in Groningen, Kapteyn would measure the plates made by Gill's staff in their photographic Durchmusterung of the southern skies. For this work, Kapteyn designed precision instruments and organized an astronomical laboratory. The work began in 1885 and the positions of 450,000 southern stars thus measured appeared in three volumes between 1896 and 1900.
But stellar positions and brightnesses were only a means to an end. Like many other astronomers of his day, Kapteyn was interested in the distribution of stars and the structure of the Milky Way. By 1906, he had organized the international cooperative 'Plan of Selected Areas', in which the work of cataloguing the stars in 206 sample areas was divided among 30 observatories, a work that was not finished until almost half a century after Kapteyn's death. The information obtained was: apparent brightness, proper motion, radial motion, color, etc. Since the correlation of apparent brightness with distance had already been proven erroneous by William Herschel toward the end of his life, Kapteyn took a statistical approach: although the correlation was false for individual stars, it should apply for representative groupings of stars. By about 1920, as Kapteyn's career neared its end, enough information was becoming available to reveal a disk-like structure of the Milky Way, about six times as wide as thick, with the Sun near the center. Kapteyn was aware of the problem of extinction absorption of starlight by interstellar matter, but all his efforts to measure this were negative. The 'Kapteyn Universe' was therefore altered when absorption was demonstrated: its size had to be increased (although not as much as Harlow Shapley advocated) and the position of the Sun was determined, as argued by Shapley, to be eccentric. Kapteyn's program, however, retained its validity and was pursued by his successors. His study also showed that there were preferred motions of stars in the solar neighborhood, which showed relative motions of two groups of stars: this was important evidence that the Milky Way had a spiral structure and that our Sun was in one of the spiral arms.

After World War I, Kapteyn was one of a handful of scientists (see also Lorentz) who opposed the exclusion of German and Austrian scientists from international bodies and cooperative research, a practice not stopped until after his death. Kapteyn retired in 1921

Biography:
Pannekoek was the son of Johannes Pannekoek and Wilhelmina Dorothea Beins, members of the rural middle class. He studied astronomy at the University of Leiden, where he became an observer at the Astronomical Observatory in 1898. He took his doctorate in 1902 on a dissertation on the variable star Algol. The following year, he married Johanna Maria Nassau Noordewier. The program of meridian measurements instituted by Frederik Kaiser two decades earlier was too confining for Pannekoek, who considered these measurement of little scientific use. A devoted socialist, he had become a member of the SDAP (Social Democratic Worker's Party) in 1902, and in 1905 he left the observatory to accept a position at the Socialist party school in Berlin and later Bremen. He was an active contributor, and later editor, of De Nieuwe Tijd and emerged as an important theoretician of the left wing of the German SPD. In Germany, he regularly contributed theoretical articles to both Die Neue Zeit and Bremer Bürger-zeitung.
The First World War forced Pannekoek to return to the Netherlands, where he became teacher at secondary schools in several places. He also continued his political activities, adopting a revolutionary international position, contributing a number of articles to Lichtstrahlen and Arbeiterspolitik, important leftwing journals. His political activities caused the Minister of Education to hold up and eventually, after the communist revolution in Hungary, to reject his appointment as vice-director of the Leiden Observatory. Pannekoek remained one of the most important theoreticians of international Socialist, and the Communist, movement. He is best known for his insistence on the autonomous action of the workers who after the revolution must organize themselves into independent, self-governing Worker's Councils.
If the Minister of Education could veto an appointment at the (national) University of Leiden, he did not have that power at the (municipal) University of Amsterdam, where Pannekoek had already been appointed lecturer of Mathematics and Astronomy in 1918. Seven years later he became professor. Pannekoek founded the Astronomical Institute of the University of Amsterdam, and his longer monographs on astronomical subjects appeared in its publications between 1924 and 1949. He was dismissed by the German government of the Netherlands in 1941.
At Amsterdam, Pannekoek became one of the founders of astrophysics in the Netherlands. He investigated the structure of the Milky Way through detailed photometric investigations, publishing his results on the northern hemisphere in 1924-29, and on the southern hemisphere in 1949. He also did important work on the atmospheres of stars: the abundance of hydrogen in stellar atmospheres, the quantitative analysis of the flash spectrum during a solar eclipse, and the low mass of giant stars. From early in his career, Pannekoek was interested in the history of astronomy. His Wonderbouw der wereld (The Wonderful Construction of the Universe) introduced the reader to astronomy through its history, De groei van ons wereldbeeld (The Growth of Our World Picture), published in English as A History of Astronomy, was considered the most reliable general history of astronomy for three decades. With his wife, Pannekoek was active in literary and musical circles in Amsterdam. He was a member of the Royal Netherlands Academy of Arts and Sciences since 1925 and received an honorary doctorate from Harvard University and the Gold Medal of the Royal Astronomical Society.
