Charles Kittel (July 18, 1916 – May 15, 2019) was an American physicist.
Charles Kittel was born in New York City in 1916.
He attended the Horace Mann School for Boys, graduating in June 1934.
Kittel then entered the Massachusetts Institute of Technology as a chemistry major before switching to physics.
He transferred to the University of Cambridge two years later, where he obtained a bachelor of arts in 1938.
Kittel married Muriel A. Lister, at the time an English literature student, in 1938 during his time at Cambridge.
The two had three kids: Peter, Ruth and Timothy.
Kittel began his graduate studies at the University of Wisconsin–Madison the same year and obtained his Doctor of Philosophy degree in 1941, with a thesis supervised by Gregory Breit.
During World War II, he joined the Submarine Operations Research Group (SORG).

He was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship in 1945, 1956 and 1963.
Among other achievements, Kittel is credited with the theoretical discovery of the RKKY interaction (the first K standing for Kittel) and the Kittel magnon mode in ferromagnets.
Physics students worldwide study his classic text Introduction to Solid State Physics, now in its 8th edition.
From 1947 to 1951, he worked for Bell Laboratories, New Jersey, USA, especially on ferromagnetism.
He was a professor at the University of California, Berkeley from 1951 and was professor emeritus from 1978 until his death.
From 1951 to 1978, he worked at the University of California, Berkeley, where he taught and did research in the field of theoretical solid-state physics, a part of condensed-matter physics.
Kittel was a member of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences, elected in 1957.
(He is mentioned on page 478 of RV Jones' book Most Secret War, published 1978.) He served in the United States Navy as a naval attache.
