Felix Bloch (October 23, 1905 – September 10, 1983) was a Swiss physicist, who was awarded the 1952 Nobel Prize in Physics together with Edward Purcell for "their development of new ways and methods for nuclear magnetic precision measurements." In 1954–1955, he served for one year as the first director-general of CERN. Felix Bloch made fundamental theoretical contributions to the understanding of ferromagnetism and electron behavior in crystal lattices. He is also considered one of the developers of nuclear magnetic resonance.
