Gerald (Harris) Rosen (born August 10, 1933, Mt. Vernon, NY) is an American mathematical scientist with over 275 published contributions in leading international scientific journals in the areas of theoretical physics, mathematical biology, and aeronautical engineering, between 1958 and the present. Rosen is currently the M. R. Wehr Professor Emeritus at Drexel University, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA.
Early life
Gerald Rosen was born 10 August 1933 in Mt. Vernon, New York to David and Shirley Shapiro. In high school, he was a sprinter and played football. He graduated first in his high school class. In 1963, he married Sarah Louise Sweet and has two children.
Education and Career
At Princeton University, Rosen received the degrees B.S.E. in 1955, M.A. in 1956, and PhD in 1958 with a thesis entitled "Feynman Quantization of General Relativity Theory" with John Archibald Wheeler as his principal advisor.
Rosen was an NSF postdoctoral fellow at the Institute for Theoretical Physics in Stockholm, Sweden. He worked from 1960 to 1966 as an aerospace consultant to the Joint Chiefs of Staff and The Pentagon. In 1962, as Principal Scientist at Martin-Marietta, Rosen derived an equation, which is now known as OML theory, after a request from noted rocket scientist, . OML Theory has been independently rediscovered by other mathematical physicists more than 30 years later. Between 1963 and 1966, Rosen did research at the Southwest Research Institute in San Antonio, Texas.
In 1966, Rosen accepted a tenured full professorship at Drexel University in Philadelphia where he spent his career until retirement in 1990.
Beginning in 1982 Rosen has been an associate editor at the Bulletin of Mathematical Biology. In 2007 he generalized the Koide formula to quarks. . Rosen has written 2 books and contributed numerous articles to professional journals.
