Fritz Reiche (Jul 4, 1883 — Jan 14, 1969) was a student of Max Planck and a colleague of Albert Einstein, who was active in, and made important contributions to the early development of quantum mechanics including co-authoring the Thomas-Reiche-Kuhn sum rule.[1]

From 1913 to 1920 as privatdozent he worked and taught under Planck in Berlin.[2] Reiche published more than 55 scientific papers and books including The Quantum Theory. [3][4]

He became a professor in 1921 at the University of Breslau and then was dismissed as a Jew from his academic position in 1933. Eventually, with the help of Ladenburg, Einstein, and others,[5] Reich emigrated with his family to the United States in 1941 and went on to work with NASA and the United States Navy on projects related to supersonic flow.[6]
