Arthur Carl Wilhelm Heffter fue un farmacólogo y químico alemán. Fue el primer presidente de la Sociedad Alemana de Farmacólogos, y fue en gran parte responsable del primer Manual de Farmacología Experimental publicado en 1919. Aisló la mescalina del cactus peyote en 1897, el primer aislamiento de una sustancia psicodélica natural en forma pura. Al año siguiente, en 1898, publicó su trabajo en la revista académica Naunyn-Schmiedeberg's Archives of Pharmacology. Al principio activo se le llamó 'mescalina' porque el alcaloide se extrajo de los botones secos conocidos como 'botones del mescal'. Además, realizó experimentos sobre sus efectos comparando los efectos del peyote y la mescalina en sí mismo.

Gerhard Hessenberg was a German mathematician. He received his Ph.D. from the University of Berlin in 1899 under the guidance of Hermann Schwarz and Lazarus Fuchs. His name is usually associated with projective geometry, where he is known for proving that Desargues' theorem is a consequence of Pappus's hexagon theorem, and differential geometry where he is known for introducing the concept of a connection. He was also a set theorist: the Hessenberg sum and product of ordinals are named after him. However, Hessenberg matrices are named for Karl Hessenberg, a near relative.
