Jauch was born on 20 September 1914 in
Lucerne, Switzerland, the son of Josef Alois Jauch (a telegraph operator) and Emma Laura Rosa Jauch (née Conti). He had two older siblings: Adelheid Jauch and Emil Josef Karl Jauch. After his mother died in 1916, his father remarried, and a half-sister was born:

Jauch and his wife divorced in 1969, and he remarried to Mercédès
Viviane France Sabine de Cambourg in 1969 (whom he later divorced). He died suddenly of a stroke on August 30, 1974, and was buried in Cimetière de Saint-Georges, Geneva. His final work was the first of a two-part treatise on the

During his doctoral studies in
Minneapolis, Jauch met Anna Tonette "Tonia" Hegland, a graduate student in the School of Social Work at the University of Minnesota, and the two were married on 1 January 1940. After receiving his doctorate in 1940, Jauch returned to Zurich to take up a research

Princeton as an Assistant Professor in 1942. There Pauli and Jauch studied the
