The Bunsen–Kirchhoff Award for spectroscopy is named after Bunsen and Kirchhoff. Bunsen also developed several gas-analytical methods, was a pioneer in photochemistry, and did early work in …

Bunsen combined his zinc-carbon cells into large batteries, which he used to isolate metals from their ores. He was the first person to produce large scale samples of pure magnesium metal.

Robert Bunsen (born March 30, 1811, Göttingen, Westphalia [Germany]—died August 16, 1899, Heidelberg) was a German chemist who, with Gustav Kirchhoff, about 1859 observed that each …

Bunsen’s most important work was in developing several techniques used in separating, identifying, and measuring various chemical substances. He also made a number of improvements in chemical …

Bunsen was a great scientist, superb experimentalist and inspiring teacher. With Kirkhoff he invented the spectroscope and used it to discover the elements rubidium and cesium.

Robert Wilhelm Eberhard Bunsen (March 31, 1811 - August 16, 1899) was a German chemist who contributed to the development of spectroscopy as a powerful method of chemical analysis. The …

He also was the inventor of what has come to be known as the Bunsen cell (a carbon-zinc electric cell) and the grease-spot photometer, which he developed in order to quantify the amount of light …

Bunsen (March 31, 1811-August 16, 1899) was a German chemist and teacher. He invented the Bunsen burner for his research in isolating chemical substances - it has a high-intensity, non-luminous flame …

Robert Bunsen's enduring astronomical fame derives not from the Bunsen burner but from his contribution to the development of spectroscopy, the fundamental tool underlying virtually all of the …

Bunsen devised a sensitive ice calorimeter that measured the volume rather than the mass of the ice melted. This allowed him to measure the metals' specific heat to find their true atomic weights.
