Abstract: 
Two former professors of physics at Giessen university contributed significantly to the development of the Ioffe Institute: Wilhelm Conrad Rontgen as a teacher of Abram Ioffe, and Wilhelm Hanle, whose effect found various applications, e.g., in the spectroscopy of hot electrons in low-dimensional structures. A few examples will illustrate how topics of their scientific work found a continuation in the research activities at Giessen, but also in the collaboration between Giessen and Saint Petersburg. They range from sodium chloride, the old Rontgen/Ioffe material where we could prove the existence of an unusual isotope effect in nickel-doped crystals, over level-crossing experiments in gases, to GaAs/AlAs superlattices, where level-anticrossing spectroscopy of excitons reveals detailed information about recombination processes and interface quality. A short summary of the efforts to keep the traditionally close and good relations between Russian and German physics vital completes the report. (C) 1999 American Institute of Physics.
