Isidor Isaac Rabi, physicist who won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1944 died #OTD in 1988.
He eventually took on the problem of determining the nuclear spin and associated magnetic moment of sodium. Throughout the 1930s, Rabi improved the molecular beam method and used it to gather increasingly accurate values for the nuclear spin of atoms, including hydrogen and deuterium. The work culminated in the magnetic resonance method, which is the basis for magnetic resonance imaging.
