Lorenz Cederbaum is recognized among Jewish contributors to Science & Medicine — Theoretical chemist who predicted interatomic Coulombic decay
Lorenz S. Cederbaum is a theoretical chemist and physicist at Heidelberg University who in the late 1990s predicted interatomic (intermolecular) Coulombic decay (ICD), a fast relaxation process in which an excited atom or molecule transfers energy to a neighbor, ejecting a low-energy electron; ICD was later confirmed experimentally and is important in radiation chemistry and biology. He is documented among leading Jewish scientists in chemistry.
