Abstract

Edmund John Bowen, known to everyone as Ted Bowen, died on 19 November 1980 after a short illness. He was a pioneer in the study of photochemical reactions and a major contributor to our know ledge of the production and quenching of fluorescence, but his influence goes far beyond his published scientific work. There can be few of his pupils, colleagues and other friends who have not benefited repeatedly from his unselfish and enthusiastic help and advice, and his ability to explain abstruse theories in simple terms has helped the understanding of several generations of scientists.
