Lorenz Müller died in 1956.
Scott Lorenz was born in 1985.
Lorenz Nieberl was born in 1919.
Turing did not work on the Enigma, it was a German machine. However he did do some work on the British Bombe machines that were used to crack the Enigma machine cipher. Later he saw Tommy Flowers' Colossus electronic computer, designed to crack the German Lorenz SZ40/42 machine cipher. This inspired him after the end of the war to begin work on programmable electronic computers.

A cipher machine is a mechanical device for encoding and decoding messages.
Having the enemy's cipher machine made interception and interpretation much easier.
I don't know what the Germans called it, but when the British got ahold of it and began trying to decrypt it, they called it the "Enigma machine".

enigmaThere were two main German cypher machines used during WW2:The Enigma machine was used for low level tactical messages between units in the field. Messages were manually encrypted/decrypted using the machine and sent/received as radio telegrams. There were different versions of the Enigma used by the Army, Navy, Gestapo, SS, etc.The Lorenz machine was used to send high level strategic messages between high command and the various generals. Messages were automatically encrypted/decrypted using a standard Baudot teletype for input/output and automatically transmitted/received. There were four different versions of the Lorenz machine (SZ40, SZ42, SZ42A and SZ42B) introduced at different times in the war to improve its security.
The circular reflector is a part of a cipher machine used by a code breaker. It made sure that the encrypted letter in a cipher could never be the actual letter itself. This device was useful in cracking codes during WWII.
Tommy Flowers developed Colossus in 1943. This computer was intended to aid British code breakers in World War II with analysis of the Lorenz cipher.
Yes, always. Some programs automatically choose the cipher for you so you don't always have to make a decision but a cipher is always used.
