noticeably by strong sources of photoneutrons which
have energies of a few hundred thousand electron volts.

abstract = "Fast neutrons emitted by uranium under the action of
thermal neutrons were studied by using a
radium-beryllium photoneutron source. The background
due to the primary neutrons can be neglected since only
a few of the photoneutrons are sufficiently fast to be
counted. Data are obtained concerning the energy
spectrum of the uranium fission neutrons by recording
photographically by means of a linear amplifier and
cathode-ray oscillograph the pulses due to helium atoms
projected in an ionization chamber. Visual inspection
of the record gives an upper limit of the spectrum of
3.5 Mev. The number of neutrons emitted is estimated by
analyzing the pulse distribution of hydrogen atoms
projected by uranium neutrons in an ionization chamber
filled with hydrogen and argon. The number found is
brought into relationship with the number of fissions,
observed under comparable conditions in an ionization
chamber lined with a thin film of uranium oxide
containing a known amount of uranium. In this way it is
found that about 2.3 neutrons are emitted per fission.
The method used would permit a greater accuracy in the
determination of this number than the actual accuracy
obtained in the present experiments. This number,
together with the fission cross section and the cross
section for radiative capture gives the number of
neutrons produced for each thermal neutron absorbed in
uranium.",

scientists beliefs regarding using atomic energy as a
weapon, giving a chronology of the events leading to
that point. The title of the speech refers to the 1939
experiment in which Szilard and Walet Zinn ran an
experiment which showed that it was possible to
liberate atomic energy, the pioneering experiment in
the use of atomic energy. Szilard recounts the pressure
the government placed on scientists working to build
atomic weapons and the silence the government asked
them to keep after the bombing of Hiroshima and
Nagasaki with contempt. He claims the only hope for
controlling the use of atomic weapons is that the
indecision in Washington, DC, is not political, but a
between those who understand the power of the bomb and
those who do not. Szilard also discusses possible means
of prevention of Soviet and American amassing of
nuclear weapons.",

detector was used. The method consisted in measuring
the fission counting rate in the detector with and
without the spherical scatterer surrounding the source.
From the decrease in the counting rate caused by the
presence of the scatterer, values of the cross section
for inelastic scattering to below the U$^{238}$ fission
threshold were calculated for several assumed values of
the elastic scattering cross section.",

who 'sold' President Roosevelt on the A-bomb project

the late Enrico Fermi, he directed the first phases of
the work on chain reaction at Columbia University and
went on to design the uranium pile at the University of
Chicago that produced the world's first self-sustaining
chain reaction, the living germ of the bomb. Off-duty
reflections on the Frankenstein he had helped father,
no doubt inspired the science-fiction story that
follows. But he did not produce it for publication; he
presented it orally on March 27, 1949 during a
University of Chicago Round Table of the Air program.
NBC listeners didn't hear it because it was delivered
`off the air' following the broadcast portion of the
program. The story was included in the printed
transcript of the program but it has never appeared in
a form suitable for general circulation.",

in general, and the President's Science Advisory
Committee in particular, fail to advance a solution of
this problem [nuclear weapons control] during the
Eisenhower administration? The slogan that `scientists
should be on tap but not on top,' which gained currency
in Washington, may have had something to do with this
failure. Of course, scientists could not possibly be on
top in Washington, where policy, if it is made at all,
is made by those who operate, rather than by those who
are engaged in policy planning. But what those who
coined this slogan, and those who parroted it,
apparently meant was that scientists must not concern
themselves with devising and proposing policies; they
ought to limit themselves to answering such technical
questions as they may be asked. Thus, it may well be
that the scientists gave the wrong answers because they
were asked the wrong questions.''",

Szilard's spoken memoirs. They start with his leaving
Germany and end with the use of the atomic bomb against
Japan. Descriptions of Szilard's troubles finding a job
and financial difficulties are interspersed with his
moments of discovery, such as the realization of the
requirements for a chain reaction, which reveal the
mindset of a theoretical physicist. Szilard's time at
the Chicago Metallurgical Laboratory is humorously
described while including details of the important work
done there. The autobiography shows mundane aspects of
Manhattan Project scientists and intellectual
immigrants and reveals the social aspect of Szilard's
life. Appendices contain important letters written by
Szilard, including his petition to the U.S. President
to not use the atomic bomb against Japan. Endnotes give

American--Soviet conflicts in the nuclear arms race,
leading to safeguards and disarmament. Other short
stories include ``My Trial as a War Criminal,'' ``The
Mark Gable Foundation,'' ``Calling All Stars,''
``Report on `Grand Central Terminal','' and ``The Mined

Bernstein provides an extended biographical sketch of

stale.'\par
He has come up with a gadget that makes instant tea,
explored ways to accelerate checking counters at
supermarkets, pointed out loopholes in our tax laws,
dreamed about improvements for injector razors, and
once proposed that we have dual currency --- green
dollars for wages, red for credit in the bank. His plan
for the financing of universities is as complicated as
a Rube Goldberg madcap gadget.\par
Global affairs have always intrigued him. Early in
1947, Dr. Szilard proposed that the United States
supply economic aid on a vast scale to countries in
Europe and elsewhere to build up their industries. The
Marshall Plan came three months later.\par
He hates to keep regular hours and schedules. Exercise?

which made world war so monstrous a prospect. In 1928
and 1929 he filed a patent on the idea of the
cyclotron, a device to bombard the nuclei of atoms with
protons at very high speeds to study their
characteristics. (The cyclotron was invented
independently by Dr. Ernest O. Lawrence and built at
the University of California in 1929.)''",
remark-3 = "Later, the author writes: ``In 1931, after the Nazis
had won a great bloc of seats in parliament, Szilard
knew a storm was gathering, and that Jewish
intellectuals must choose between disaster and flight.
He told me, `It became clear to me that political
developments in Germany would lead to trouble. I came
to America with an immigration visa in December, 1931,
established myself as a resident and returned to
Germany in 1932 to continue my studies. From then on I
literally kept two suitcases packed, in my room at the
Faculty Club at Berlin--Dahlem, where I lived.' In
1933, after the Reichstag fire, he picked up his bags
and left for Vienna. The next train was boarded by Nazi
soldiers; they barred all Jews from leaving
Germany.''",
remark-4 = "From the next page: ``Some weeks later a committee
advising the Secretary of War recommended that the bomb
be dropped on Japan without prior warning, and on a
target not exclusively military. Three scientists were
on the committee, and they in turn had consulted a
scientific panel of seven. This was a severe shock to
Szilard. It was not a case of a madman using the bomb ;
scientists and generals were eager to test the new
gadget, and politicians wanted to be sure they got
their money's worth. At this point Leo Szilard became a
Jeremiah crying out protest against the bomb. He
instigated what amounted to a revolt among the
scientists at the huge Manhattan District Project
operated by the Army. In another society he would
probably have been shot for his efforts. He appealed to
the agitated consciences of the atomic scientists. The
immediate result was the Franck Report --- dated June
11, 1945, and written by Nobel Prize winner James
Franck and Szilard, and signed by themselves and five
other noted scientists --- in the form of a memorandum
to the Secretary of War.''",

were shocked by the idea and some refused. Szilard and
Weisskopf, of course, had already foreseen the

was born of fear that continuing publication by Western

military management of the atomic project had caused
serious delays in the making of the bomb. A more
enlightened British policy had enabled British
scientists in 1941 to give the U.S. important
information it lacked. `Had we in the U.S. followed the
British example and learned their conclusions in 1940,
we most likely would have had bombs ready before the
invasion of Europe. But the excessive secretiveness of
the military impeded communication even between
departments of the Project. It made (it) impossible for
American scientists to discuss with Canadian scientists
plutonium techniques. The Canadians developed a process
superior and more efficient than the American.'",

drafted by Szilard, with input from Einstein, Sachs,
and, presumably, Wigner and Teller. \ldots{} The letter
was dated 2 August 1939. \ldots{} Sachs was waiting for
the right opportunity to deliver his documents to
Roosevelt --- a time when the president's mind would
not be completely occupied with the war that had just
erupted in Europe, but Szilard and his Hungarian
cohorts found the delay difficult. Sachs finally
visited the Oval Office on 11 October, where he
explained his purpose to Army and Navy ordnance experts
as well as to the president. The presence of these
officers made it clear that prime consideration was
being given to an explosive. Roosevelt recognized the
significance of Einstein's letter and ordered action on
it.'' [Wigner's recollection is that Einstein dictated
the letter in German, and Wigner and Szilard had it
translated to English in Princeton, and then returned
to Einstein with the final copy for his signature.]",

positions concerning fission research? Merle Tuve,

most outspoken on the importance of democratic forms to
the vitality and robustness of scientific research
organizations, was able to fund the entire American
effort in building the atomic bomb without

Roosevelt on 12 April 1945.",

Conant (initially), W. K. Lewis, John Slater, and Frank
Jewett, believed that the technical uncertainties were
too great to warrant the launching of an all-out
effort.''",

the summer and fall of 1941 was to organize and

appointees that the creation of a fission bomb in the

abstract = "Leo Szilard has received scant attention from
historians of science, notwithstanding his
contributions to physics and biology. This neglect is
particularly surprising in light of the fact that
Szilard was an influential and deeply interesting
figure quite apart from his scientific accomplishment.
As the title of the study indicates, he did not just do
science, but lived it as well. We could almost think of
him as an incarnation or living instantiation of
scientific values and principles were it not for the
fact that such values and principles are wholly human
in the first place. But this brings us to the crux of
the issue: Szilard privileged science with transcendent
significance. A true believer in science and its
potential to save the world, he drank the cup of
science to its dregs. For anyone interested in the way
science has both strained and given relief to the human
predicament in the twentieth century, Szilard's life is
instructive.\par
This study assumes that science and society are not
disjoint and argues that Szilard's science was driven
as much by passion and paradox as it was by cool,
analytic thinking. Much of the paradox stemmed from
contradictions with science itself. For example, while
thermodynamics predicted universal heat death,
evolutionary biology pointed toward the possibility of
humankind's unlimited ascent within the cosmos. These
contradictory outlooks appear to be the positive and
negative poles of much of Szilard's science. As one who
was very much alive to the uncertainties, paradoxes,
and fantasies of science, Szilard merits our
interest.",

abstract = "Enrico Fermi was a man with outstanding talents, he
had many interests outside his own particular field. He
was credited with asking famous questions. There are
long preambles to Fermi's questions like this: --- `The
universe is vast, containing myriads of stars, many of
them not unlike our Sun. Many of these stars are likely
to have planets circling around them. A fair fraction
of these planets will have liquid water on their
surface and a gaseous atmosphere. The energy pouring
down from a star will cause the synthesis of organic
compounds, turning the ocean into a thin, warm soup.
These chemicals will join each other to produce a
self-reproducing system. The simplest living things
will multiply, and evolve by natural selection and
become more complicated. And eventually active,
thinking creatures will emerge. Civilization, science
and technology will follow. Then, yearning for fresh
worlds, they will travel to neighboring planets, and
later to planets of nearby stars. Eventually they
should spread out all over the Galaxy. These highly
exceptional and talented people could hardly overlook
such a beautiful place as our Earth'. And so Fermi came
to his overwhelming question, --- `If all this has been
happening, they should have arrived here by now, so
where are they?' It was Leo Szilard, a man with an
impish sense of humor who supplied the perfect reply to
Fermi's rhetoric: `They are among us', he said, `but
they call themselves Hungarians'.",

Winterberg, who was Heisenberg's student after the war,
writes ``Another point worth mentioning is that it was
Fritz Houtermans, not Leo Szilard, who had first
suggested the possibility of a nuclear chain reaction
with neutrons. This view is also shared by Soviet
scientists who had known Houtermans well, because
Houtermans had emigrated before the war to the Soviet
Union and had been arrested there, but had returned to
Germany around 1940 in a Soviet--German prisoners
exchange and then had worked for the German uranium
project. And it has been forgotten that simultaneously
with Lise Meitner and Otto Frisch, Gottfried von Droste
and Siegfried Fl{\"u}gge of the Kaiser Wilhelm
Institute for Physics in Berlin had reached the same
conclusion regarding the energy released in uranium
fission, with their results being published in the
Zeitschrift f{\"u}r Physikalische Chemie.'' Yet it was
Szilard who applied for, and received, a British patent
on nuclear fission, and is usually credited by most
historians as the first to conceive of a chain
reaction. In retrospective, the notion of an
exponential chain reaction seems likely to have
occurred to at least several physicists.",

abstract = "Two generations of scientists in the US and the Soviet
Union spent their lives in the shadow of the cold war,
building the scientific and technical infrastructure
and shaping the institutional and policy structures
that maintained a stable ``balance of terror.'' The
cold war is now over, but the lethal products of it,
and the decaying institutions and policies that
perpetuated it, are probably more dangerous than ever.
At the same time, the loss of cold war imperatives
means fewer government resources and less policy
attention to the problems of reversing the cold war.
Moreover, solving these problems will require that the
forces and talents of economics and business be
integrated with the technical skill and imagination of
physical scientists. Science fundamentally involves
skills of problem definition and problem-solving. Both
American and Russian scientists and engineers must
expand their tool kits and the scope of their
imaginations if they are to undo the dangerous legacy
of the cold war and find productive new roles in a
post-cold war world. This address is intended to
illustrate how this can be done, using the past five
years' experience in developing and implementing the
agreement between the U.S. and Russia to motivate,
finance, and institutionalize the destruction of
approximately 20,000 Russian nuclear weapons through
the commercially-driven recovery and destruction of 500
tonnes of highly enriched uranium from those weapons.
Such approaches can have benefits much broader than the
destruction of weapons, if we can recognize the
opportunities and pursue them wisely. Unfortunately,
there is a basic lack of imagination and will, one that
is further frustrated by bureaucratic inertia and the
parochial interests of cold war institutions. The irony
is that Russia is more ready to change than the US, but
it is the US that is, in principle but perhaps not in
practice, most able to help lead the world out of the
cold war era.",

Szilard's endeavors in this quest, to which he so
unwaveringly devoted his energies and talents. I also
will reflect on the significance of that quest for this

abstract = "A Central European among the whites was said about Leo
Szilard who originated from a polycultural family. In
the early 20th century he grew up in Hungary, at the
crossroads of history, where political regimes,
national borders, ideological doctrines, ``final
truths'' changed in a dizzying cavalcade. Instead of
conservative dogmatism this social environment required
critical thinking in order to survive. World War I was
the school of Theodore von K{\'a}rm{\'a}n, John von
Neumann, Eugene P. Wigner and Leo Szilard; each of them
learned trespassing political and disciplinary
boundaries without inhibition. Their sensitivity for
trends had been utilized by the United States when war
efforts and high tech required orientation under new
horizons. Szilard's interest ranged from statistical
physics through information theory to biological
evolution, from life phenomena through hot atoms to
nuclear strategy. His intellectual adventures might
look crazy jumps for specialists. But now, looking back
to the political and technological history of the 20th
century one can see than it was a consequent progress
of a future-sensitive mind.",

extremely secretive effort during World War II to
develop the atomic bomb, is almost always presented in
light of the male scientists who made the bomb. But, in
fact, a large number of women were also involved in the
project, although until now their contributions have
largely been ignored. \par
Authors Ruth H. Howes and Caroline L. Herzenberg
discuss the various scientific problems the women
helped to solve as well as the discrimination they
faced in their work. Their abrupt recruitment for the
war effort and anecdotes of everyday life in the
clandestine, improvised communities, what happened to
the women after the war, and their present attitudes
toward the work they did on the bomb are also
included.",

could be built, and that the Germans may be doing so,
but Fermi was sceptical. The Anglo--American project to
build a bomb began late in 1941 after Oliphant brought
the Frisch--Peierls memorandum to the attention of U.
S. physicists. Szilard recalled ``On matters scientific
or technical there was rarely any disagreement [but]
Fermi and I disagreed from the very start of our
collaboration about every issue that involved not
science but principles of action in the face of the
approaching war. If the nation owes us gratitude ---
and it may not --- it does so for having stuck it out
together as long as was necessary.'' As the war with
Germany was drawing to a close and the successful
construction of the atomic bombs was well underway,
these two men took opposing positions regarding use of
the bombs.",

of the 21st century. Without order-of-magnitude changes
in the productivity of systems for satisfying this
population's needs and whimsies, we face starkly
growing worldwide inequality, unsustainable plundering
of shrinking supplies of natural resources, or both.
Can we invent energy sources that are sustainable,
affordable, and consistent with security? Can we mimic
the ability of biological systems and build small,
inexpensive machines that can fabricate tens of
thousands of products on demand from simple raw
materials? Can we use information and communication
systems to optimize design and performance (the human
brain uses half the energy of modern Pentium chips but
most people seem much more clever.) Can we cut the
resources needed to move people and things from point
to point or to maintain homes and office spaces with
comfortable light by an order of magnitude? As an APS
summer study proved nearly three decades ago, there is
much room for optimism about what we can do to address
these problems and much has been learned since this
initial foray. But there is there less room to be
optimistic about changing incentive systems to reflect
what we collectively want to do. Scientists who
recognize what is possible can not in conscience ignore
the complex, frustrating, and morally perilous world of
domestic and international politics. Learning to be
effective is not easy. Understanding political systems
is not easy and being effective means engaging in the
agonizing business of sorting through third or
fourth-best solutions that are vastly better than no
solution at all. The century can not end well without
an effective partnership between science and
politics.",

questioned the wisdom of their desperate endeavor. But
afterward, they were forced to deal with the sobering
legacy of their creation. Some were haunted by the dead
of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and would become anti-nuclear
weapons activists; others would go on to build bigger
and even deadlier bombs. Some would remain friends;
others would become bitter rivals and enemies. In
explaining their lives and their struggles, Brian
VanDeMark superbly illuminates the ways in which these
brilliant and sensitive men came to terms with their
horrific creation. The result is spectacular history
and a moral investigation of the highest order. There
were nine of them: men with the names Oppenheimer,
Teller, Fermi, Bohr, Lawrence, Bethe, Rabi, Szilard,
and Compton --- brilliant men who believed in science
and who saw before anyone else did the awesome workings
of an invisible world. They came from many places, some
fleeing Nazism in Europe, others quietly slipping out
of university teaching jobs, all gathering in secret
wartime laboratories to create the world's first atomic
bomb. At one such place hidden away in the mountains of
northern New Mexico --- Los Alamos --- they would crack
the secret of the nuclear chain reaction and construct
a device that incinerated a city and melted its victims
so thoroughly that the only thing left was their
scorched outlines on the sidewalks.",

abstract = "I argue that to understand the life and work of Leo
Szilard (1898--1964) we have to understand, first, that
he was driven by events to numerous departures,
escapes, and exiles, changing his religion, his
language, his country of residence, and his scientific
disciplines; second, that he was a man haunted by major
moral dilemmas throughout his life, burdened by a
sincere and grave sense of responsibility for the fate
of the world; and third, that he experienced a terrible
sense of d{\'e}j{\`a} vu: his excessive sensitivity and
constant alertness were products of his experiences as
a young student in Budapest in 1919. The mature Szilard
in Berlin of 1933, and forever after, was always ready
to move. I proceed as follows: After a brief
introduction to his family background, youth, and
education in Budapest, I discuss the impact of his army
service in the Great War and of the tumultuous events
in Hungary in 1918--1919 on his life and psyche,
forcing him to leave Budapest for Berlin in late 1919.
He completed his doctoral degree under Max von Laue
(1879--1960) at the University of Berlin in 1922 and
his Habilitationsschrift in 1925. During the 1920s and
early 1930s, he filed a number of patents, several of
them jointly with Albert Einstein (1879--1955). He left
Berlin in March 1933 for London where he played a
leading role in the rescue operations for refugee
scientists and scholars from Nazi Germany. He also
carried out notable research in nuclear physics in
London and Oxford before immigrating to the United
States at the end of 1938. He drafted Einstein's famous
letter of August 2, 1939, to President Franklin D.
Roosevelt, worked in the Manhattan Project during World
War II, initiated a petition to President Harry S.
Truman not to use the bomb on Japan, and immediately
after the war was a leader in the scientists movement
that resulted in civilian control of nuclear energy. In
1946 he turned to biology, in which his most
significant contribution was to formulate a theory of
aging. In 1956 von Laue led an effort to invite him to
head a new institute for nuclear physics in West
Berlin, which he ultimately declined at the end of
1959. He remained in the United States, becoming a
highly visible public figure, speaking, writing, and
traveling extensively, and even corresponding with
Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev and President John
F. Kennedy to promote the international control of
nuclear weapons. In retrospect, although Szilard was a
man of many missions, his life story could be read as
that of a man of conscience with but a single mission,
to save mankind.",

Szilard led efforts by physicists to assert leadership
on the use of nuclear weapons. He warned about the
future possibility of delivering nuclear weapons by
missiles and also pointed out the ease by which nuclear
bombs could simply be carried across borders. The U.S.
has had an anti-ballistic missile program since the
1950's. Initially it was intended to counter a Soviet
nuclear threat but with the end of the cold war the
goal was changed to dealing with accidental or
unauthorized launches of Russian ICBMs. More recently,
the goal of the U.S. missile defense program was
shifted to countering a possible future threat posed by
emerging missile states. The APS Study of boost- phase
intercept was carried out in the Szilard tradition of
physicists providing leadership on public policy issues
involving science ad technology, in the hope that
factual analysis of technical problems can contribute
to better public policy.",

abstract = "This essay focuses on the history of one of the atomic
patents. The patent, which described a process to slow
down neutrons in nuclear reactions, was the result of
experimental research conducted in the 1930s by Enrico
Fermi and his group at the Institute of Physics,
University of Rome. The value of the patented process
became clear during World War II, as it was involved in
most of the military and industrial applications of
atomic energy. This ignited a controversy between Fermi
and U.S. government representatives over royalties to
be paid for use of the process during and after the
war. The controversy sheds new light on the role that
the management of patents played in the context of the
Manhattan Project and in the postwar U.S. nuclear
program, encompassing issues of power and economic
influence in the relationship between scientists, the
military, and public administrators.\par
The invention covered by Patent No. 2,206,634 covers
the basic process used in the research and development
leading up the production of atomic energy and the
production of the atomic bomb. Such invention is of
continuing importance in the production of fissionable
materials and atomic weapons.",

remark-1 = "From page 13: ``The Italian scientists also wanted to
inform the other inventors and Giannini [one of Fermi's
former students who became a businessman, and acted on
behalf of Fermi's patent applications] that the slow
neutron patent had proved --- indeed, dramatically
increased --- its commercial value. But any disclosure
of the reasons for this increased value (i.e., in
connection with MED [Manhattan Engineer District: code
name for the project]) would have led them to
contravene Los Alamos security regulations, if not
openly challenge the Espionage Act''.",
remark-2 = "From page 23: ``Fermi's patent had been an important
motive for his research from its onset to the design of
nuclear reactors and afterward. \ldots{} The history of
Fermi's patent also illuminates, in a very distinctive
way, how the relationship between scientists, the
military, and the U.S. government was shaped by
disputes about intellectual ownership. Because the slow
neutron patent was one of only two that received
compensation, it in fact provides an almost unique
opportunity for exploring how legal controversies
intersected with the development of atomic research in
wartime and postwar American science.",
remark-3 = "From page 25: ``The history of Fermi's patent adds a
new dimension to studies of political persecution in
the United States during the 1950s. It shows that some
of the scientists who were subjected to scrutiny during
the ``witch hunts'' also had ongoing legal and
financial issues with the U.S. government. One might
then ask whether there was a connection between
political repression and ongoing disputes of a
legal-financial nature.''",
remark-4 = "From page 26: ``Only one other set of patents (those
filed by Segr{\`e} and his Berkeley associates on
plutonium) were compensated by the PCB [Patent
Compensation Board]; all the other claims were
rejected. \ldots{} The agency could then license
corporations such as General Electric and Westinghouse
for the trade of nuclear radioisotopes and nuclear
reactors alike. This meant that costs for intellectual
property rights amounted to as little as 0.005 percent
of the total revenues derived from selling nuclear
products abroad, whereas prewar contracts had ensured
inventors no less than 5 percent of total revenues. On
the whole, the governmental monopoly system on atomic
patents had not diminished the contractual power of
corporations; indeed, it augmented it.''.",

mass destruction. In 1950, Hungarian-born scientist Leo
Szilard made a dramatic announcement on American radio:
science was on the verge of creating a doomsday bomb, a
huge cobalt-clad H-bomb that would pollute the
atmosphere with radioactivity and end all life on
earth. For the first time in history, mankind had
within his grasp a truly godlike power, the ability to
destroy life itself. The shockwave from this statement
reverberated across the following decade and beyond ---
for many people there was now little to distinguish
real scientists from that ``fictional master of
megadeath,'' Stanley Kubrick's Dr. Strangelove. Indeed,
as science historian Smith shows, the dream of the
superweapon to end all war begins in popular culture
--- iconic films and fictions, from H. G. Wells'
forward --- and the scientists responsible for these
terrible weapons grew up in a culture dreaming of
superweapons and Wellsian utopias.",

abstract = "Now that the cold war is long over, our thinking of
nuclear weapons and the role that they play in
international security has undergone serious changes.
The emphasis has shifted from superpower confrontation
to nuclear proliferation, spread of weapon materials,
and to the dangers of countries developing nuclear
weapon capability under a cover of a civilian program.
At the same time, the old cold-war dangers, while
receded, have not disappeared completely. The United
States and Russia keep maintaining thousands of nuclear
weapons in their arsenals, some of them in very high
degree of readiness. This situation presents a serious
challenge that the international community has to deal
with. Although Russia and the United States are taking
some steps to reduce their nuclear arsenals, the
traditional arms control process has stalled -- the
last treaty that was signed in 2002 does not place
serious limits on strategic forces of either side. The
START Treaty, which provides a framework for
verification and transparency in reduction of nuclear
arsenals, will expire at the end of 2009. Little effort
has been undertaken to extend the treaty or renegotiate
it. Moreover, in recent years Russia has stepped up the
efforts to modernize its strategic nuclear forces. The
United States has resisted joining the Comprehensive
Nuclear Test Ban Treaty and has been working on
controversial new nuclear weapon development programs.
The U.S. missile defense program makes the dialogue
between Russia and the United States even more
difficult. The reluctance of Russia and the United
States to engage in a discussion about drastic
reductions of their nuclear forces undermines the case
of nuclear nonproliferation and seriously complicated
their effort to contain the spread of nuclear weapon
technologies and expertise. One of the reasons for the
current lack of progress in nuclear disarmament is the
contradiction between the diminished role that nuclear
weapons play in security of nuclear weapon states and
the inertia of cold-war institutions that are involved
in their development and support. Dealing with this
contradiction would require development of new
mechanisms of cooperation between nuclear weapons
states and their strong commitment to the cause of
nuclear nonproliferation. One important area of
cooperation is development of a framework that would
prevent the spread of nuclear materials and technology
at the time when increasing number of countries is
turning toward expanded use of nuclear power to cover
their energy needs.",

to play in confronting this threat, not only because
many of the issues involved are highly technical, and
science offers important tools such as hypothesis
testing, but also because open communication lies at
the heart of scientific research. International dialogs
among scientists can thus be uniquely powerful in
confronting problems of global concern, especially when
political constraints hinder communication between
nations. Many view the scientific community as at least
partly responsible for major threats confronting the
world, but we also have the opportunity to reduce those
dangers through the same processes that lead to

essential promoter and proponent of the development of
physics in Berne. He introduced a number of activities
in the field of elementary particles, with a special
focus on the physics of cosmic rays, and important
contributions in applied physics. This biography of
Houtermans was written by Edoardo Amaldi and was almost
finished just before his unexpected death in 1989. The
editors have only corrected typographical errors and
have introduced only minimal text changes in order to
preserve the original content. Additionally they have
collected and included unpublished pictures and
memories from Houtermans' students and collaborators.
The text is the result of a thorough and intensive
study on Houtermans' life and character carried out by
Edoardo Amaldi. It is more than a biography, since the
figure of Houtermans is set in a historical perspective
of Europe between the two world wars. This book will be
of great interest to historians and historians of
science.",

retorting: `when your ancestors were still living in

Frisch further mentions FH as being at the origin of
calling `the Martians' the unusually brilliant
scientists all issued from Budapest in the 1920's

von Neumann.''",

long association with Enrico Fermi, starting with his
work on the team that created the first controlled
nuclear reaction in a graphite pile at the University
of Chicago. He remembers Fermi as, ``a wonderful
person, but just a regular guy,'' who, in a very
low-key manner, advanced key research in the
development of the first atomic weapons and many other
breakthrough scientific innovations.\par
He also told a story of Leo Szilard's quirky
behavior.\par
``At Chicago, Fermi used to give weekly lectures on
Thursday evenings. Outside the lecture hall there was a
sign up sheet, on a yellow legal pad. Szilard, who I
think wasn't sure we were going to win the war, refused
to put his name on the sign up sheet, so Fermi had him
listen to the lectures from the hallway, through an
open door.''",

undergoes natural radioactive decay to polonium.

had worked with Rutherford at McGill University, used
clever chemical techniques to identify the products of
the uranium bombardment and made a monumental discovery

abstract = "Cambridge is now world-famous as a centre of science,
but it wasn't always so. Before the nineteenth century,
the sciences were of little importance in the
University of Cambridge. But that began to change in
1819 when two young Cambridge fellows took a geological
fieldtrip to the Isle of Wight. Adam Sedgwick and John
Stevens Henslow spent their days there exploring,
unearthing dazzling fossils, dreaming up elaborate
theories about the formation of the earth, and
bemoaning the lack of serious science in their ancient
university. As they threw themselves into the exciting
new science of geology --- conjuring millions of years
of history from the evidence they found in the island's
rocks --- they also began to dream of a new scientific
society for Cambridge. This society would bring
together like-minded young men who wished to learn of
the latest science from overseas, and would encourage
original research in Cambridge. It would be, they
wrote, a society ``to keep alive the spirit of
inquiry''. Their vision was realised when they founded
the Cambridge Philosophical Society later that same
year. Its founders could not have imagined the impact
the Cambridge Philosophical Society would have: it was
responsible for the first publication of Charles
Darwin's scientific writings, and hosted some of the
most heated debates about evolutionary theory in the
nineteenth century; it saw the first announcement of
X-ray diffraction by a young Lawrence Bragg --- a
technique that would revolutionise the physical,
chemical and life sciences; it published the first
paper by C.T.R. Wilson on his cloud chamber --- a
device that opened up a previously-unimaginable world
of sub-atomic particles. 200 years on from the
Society's foundation, this book reflects on the
achievements of Sedgwick, Henslow, their peers, and
their successors. Susannah Gibson explains how
Cambridge moved from what Sedgwick saw as a
``death-like stagnation'' (really little more than a
provincial training school for Church of England
clergy) to being a world-leader in the sciences. And
she shows how science, once a peripheral activity
undertaken for interest by a small number of wealthy
gentlemen, has transformed into an enormously
well-funded activity that can affect every aspect of
our lives.",

epic story of the scientists who, over two centuries,
harnessed the power of heat and ice and formulated a
theory essential to comprehending our universe.
Thermodynamics --- the branch of physics that deals
with energy and entropy --- is the least known and yet
most consequential of all the sciences. It governs
everything from the behavior of living cells to the
black hole at the center of our galaxy. Not only that,
but thermodynamics explains why we must eat and
breathe, how lights turn on, the limits of computing,
and how the universe will end. The brilliant people who
decoded its laws came from every branch of the
sciences; they were engineers, physicists, chemists,
biologists, cosmologists, and mathematicians. From
French military engineer and physicist Sadi Carnot to
Lord Kelvin, James Joule, Albert Einstein, Emmy
Noether, Alan Turing, and Stephen Hawking, author Paul
Sen introduces us to all of the players who passed the
baton of scientific progress through time and across
nations. Incredibly driven and idealistic, these brave
pioneers performed groundbreaking work often in the
face of torment and tragedy. Their discoveries helped
create the modern world and transformed every branch of
science, from biology to cosmology. Einstein's Fridge
brings to life one of the most important scientific
revolutions of all time and captures the thrill of
discovery and the power of scientific progress to shape
the course of history.",

X-ray effects in crystals, and nuclear physics
(1925--1939); the Manhattan Project, including
declassified papers and some correspondence
(1940--1945); biology (1949--1964); and patent
applications (1925--1964). The book also has a
biography and photographs from different periods of
Szilard's life. The introductions to the sections and
the foreword were written by Szilard's scientific
colleagues. Some of the papers are in German. Although
the work does not include Szilard's memorabilia, his
general and political works, or his fiction, it is
useful to people seeking a detailed view of the
brilliant and complex man's scientific life.",

hydrogen bomb, the authors present exclusive
interviews, memorabilia, and photos provided by Teller.
The book does not focus on one era of Teller's life,
but delves into each stage of his life and career. The
controversial Teller spearheaded America's effort to
build the hydrogen bomb, and then testified against
Robert Oppenheimer in his security clearance trial. The
book explains his early persecution by the Hungarian
communists, then the Nazis in Germany. His role in the
Manhattan Project is described in detail. Also
portrayed is the development of the H-bomb, including
descriptions of its evolving design. Teller's life
after the H-bomb is shown to a limited extent, with
government surveillance of his activities and his
despair over the limited test ban treaty as two of the
highlights. The book offers a detailed and
comprehensive view of Edward Teller. Though objective,
the biography emphasizes the interviews with Teller and
does not always fully treat the opinions of his
critics.",

memoranda about atomic energy written by Leo Szilard.
The documents, presented in English in chronological
order, show the birth and growth of the atomic age from
the perspective of the man who first conceived of how
to construct an A-bomb. The book is a window into the
written thoughts and deeds of an atomic pioneer and a
highly opinionated individual. It reveals Szilard's
passionate efforts to beat the Nazis in the race for
the atomic bomb, followed an equally passionate effort
to prevent atomic attacks against Japan in August of
1945. Szilard's ideas for an elite international
organization for peace called Der Bund are presented in
a draft proposal for the organization. The documents
give an account not only of Szilard's life, but an
expert's view on the early stages of atomic
development.",

works of physicist Leo Szilard, concerns his forceful
advocacy of nuclear arms control and world peace.
Szilard, who drafted Einstein's famous letter to
President Franklin D. Roosevelt and participated in the
Manhattan Project, also became one of the earliest
advocates of nuclear arms control. The book is
organized in seven parts starting with Szilard's first
public advocacy of arms control in 1947 until his death
in 1964. Each section has a general introduction and is
followed by documents, such as letters and articles,
written by Szilard on arms control issues. One section
is devoted to Szilard's contacts with Soviet leader
Nikita Khrushchev; another details his founding of and
work on The Council for a Livable World. The book also
contains a comprehensive introduction by Barton
Bernstein covering Szilard's life between 1945 and
1964. It provides excellent primary source material on
an important leader in the arms control and world peace
movements.",

weapons or nuclear energy, most often focuses on issues
of the present or the future. The documents in this
classic collection remind us, however, that the issues
involved have a past. We follow the story of J. Robert
Oppenheimer thorough his letters, observations of those
close to the Manhattan Project and testimony to the
Atomic Energy Commission. President Dwight Eisenhower's
1953 `Atoms for Peace' speech demonstrates how far back
calls for nuclear sanity go, and the listing of
nuclear-weapons accidents shows how dangerous it may be
to ignore those calls.",

abstract = "\booktitle{Unravelling the Mystery of the Atomic
Nucleus} tells the story of how, in the span of barely
sixty years, we made a transition from the belief that
matter was composed of indivisible atoms, to the
discovery that in the heart of each atom lies a nucleus
which is ten thousand times smaller than the atom,
which nonetheless carries almost all its mass, and the
transformations of which involve energies that could
never be reached by chemical reactions. It was not a
smooth transition. The nature of nuclei, their
properties, the physical laws which govern their
behaviour, and the possibility of controlling to some
extent their transformations, were discovered in
discontinuous steps, following paths which occasionally
led to errors which in turn were corrected by further
experimental discoveries. The story begins in 1896 when
radioactivity was unexpectedly discovered and continues
up to the nineteen-sixties. The authors describe the
spectacular progress made by physics during that time,
which not only revealed a new form of matter, namely
nuclei, but also modified our way of thinking by
developing quantum mechanics and the theory of
relativity. The book is written in a clear and non
mathematical language which makes it both accessible
and instructive to laymen, physicists and students, as
well as to historians of science. It delves into
subjects which are of utmost importance for the
understanding of matter in our universe and for
understanding how this knowledge was achieved.",

abstract = "This volume, prepared by an acknowledged expert on the
Manhattan Project, gives a concise, fast-paced account
of all major aspects of the project at a level
accessible to an undergraduate college or advanced
high-school student familiar with some basic concepts
of energy, atomic structure, and isotopes. The text
describes the underlying scientific discoveries that
made nuclear weapons possible, how the project was
organized, the daunting challenges faced and overcome
in obtaining fissile uranium and plutonium, and in
designing workable bombs, the dramatic Trinity test
carried out in the desert of southern New Mexico in
July 1945, and the bombings of Hiroshima and
Nagasaki.",
