Professor Giauque received the 1949 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his contributions in thermodynamics, which included measurements on crystals confirming the Third Law and the invention of adiabatic demagnetization. Giauque trained a legion of students, who subsequently helped to establish and promote calorimetry in academia, government labs, and industry.
