Robert Mozley
1999-06-03

Physicist Robert Mozley of Southport and Menlo Park, California, died Monday, May 24 at Stanford University Hospital in California after complications from surgery. He was 82.

Mozley was professor emeritus at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center (SLAC) and a national authority on arms control.

Some of Mozley's greatest contributions involved his work on a particle-tracking device called a ``streamer chamber." It was similar to a bubble chamber that physicists used to identify tracks of subatomic particles, but the streamer chamber allowed physicists to study specific events.

Mozley was born in Boston in 1917. He earned his bachelor's degree from Harvard, then taught high school for several years in Hawaii. From 1940 to 1941, he traveled extensively in Asia, including Japan and Japanese-occupied Korea and China.

After the bombing of Pearl Harbor and the start of World War II, Mozley went to work at the Sperry Gyroscope Co., where he was responsible for the design of an automatic range-tracking unit for the B-29 bomber.

When the war ended, Mozley enrolled at the University of California-Berkeley, where he received a doctorate in physics in 1950. At Berkeley, he studied under the direction of W.K.H. Panofsky, former director of SLAC, and Luis Alvarez and participated in the construction of the world's first proton linear accelerator.

Mozley began working at the Stanford High Energy Physics Laboratory in 1953 as an assistant professor and soon became involved with the design of the linear accelerator. One of his early doctoral students was Richard Taylor, who went on to win a Nobel Prize for research conducted at SLAC.

After Mozley's success with the streamer chamber, he turned his energies to the construction of a large detector for use at SLAC's first storage ring, named SPEAR. The detector was useful in obtaining details of the newly discovered j/psi particle, which led to a Noble Prize for SLAC Director Burton Richter. Mozley's design was closely copied by particle physicists in China for their program at the Beijing electron-positron collider.

In the late 1970s and early 1980s, Mozley acted as the SLAC representative to the Stanford Faculty Senate. In this position, he was one of the first to sound a warning about the increasing university reliance on funding from the Department of Defense. He was also a vocal critic of a proposal by the Defense Department to restrict publication of unclassified research, a proposal that was vigorously opposed by Stanford and other top research universities and never implemented.

Mozley served on the SLAC faculty until he retired in 1987. He then temporarily moved to Washington, D.C., to work on arms-control issues. He was the staff physicist for the Federation of American Scientists and worked on a cooperative project with the Committee of Soviet Scientists for Peace. The collaboration resulted in a series of publications and a book, Reversing the Arms Race.

In 1989 Mozley began to concentrate on nuclear non-proliferation. Working with the staff and fellows at Stanford's Center for International Security and Arms Control, he wrote a paper, ``Uranium Enrichment Technology and Other Technical Problems Relating to Nuclear Weapons Proliferation," which the center published.

During a 1994 residency at the Villa Serbelloni in Bellagio, Italy. Mozley began work on a book, The Politics and Technology of Nuclear Proliferation, which was published in 1998.

An avid sailor, Mozley sailed a replica of Joshua Slocum's Spray in Atlantic waters in the 1950s. In California he sailed on San Francisco and Tomales bays. He also sailed the bays and rivers near Southport, where he and his wife, Anita Ventura Mozley, a former curator of photography at the Stanford Museum, have had a summer residence since 1980.

In addition to his wife, Mozley is survived by his sister, Dorothy Mozley, of Orange City, Florida; his son by a previous marriage, Peter of Socorro, N.M., and two grandchildren.

A memorial will be held at SLAC at a later date. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be sent to Mozley's memory to the Committee for Green Foothills, 3921 E. Bayshore Road, Palo Alto, CA 94303 or to The Nature Conservancy, 201 Mission Street, fourth floor, San Francisco, CA 94105.
