Abstract The Hanford Environmental Health Foundation is small in size, but it is full of information and facts. Hanford was very involved with the Health Physics Society, and is thus why most of the collection contains that society's files. The Health Physics Society material includes lists of members, Board of Directors, annual meetings, minutes, and the many committees. Other interesting material includes general correspondence, materials on a business meeting in China, the American Board of...

Abstract

This collection consists of reports, letters, books, slides, and other materials documenting Hymer Friedell's work on the biological effects of radiation between 1943 and 1996. Much of the material dates from the Manhattan Project era and shortly thereafter. Of particular interest are slides documenting the aftermath of the Hiroshima bomb (1945) and a trip to Moscow (1966), books about the Manhattan project, and retrospective accounts of Friedell's work from the 1990s.

Abstract

These papers document Dr. J. Newell Stannard's work in the field of radiobiology from the late 1940s to the 1990s. Stannard created the vast majority of the material while working at the University of Rochester and at the University of California at San Diego, but some items showing his work with the U. S. government are present as well.

Abstract This collection houses the collected papers of German physicist Karl Günter Zimmer. These papers consist primarily of reprints of 121 articles and chapters written by K.G.

Abstract

This collection consists primarily of published and unpublished presentations written by Leonard J. Tolmach during this career in radiobiology. These papers are organized by the date and location of the conference the presentation was to be given at.

Abstract

The ORNL Biology Division Collection consists primarily of materials documenting the Council for Research Planning in the Biological Sciences and the work of Alexander Hollaender. Hollaender directed ORNL's Biological Division from 1946 to 1966 and is responsible for much of the early research on radiation and mutation.

Abstract

A 60-page unpublished memoir of Dr. Otto Rahn telling his story chronologically from his childhood in West Prussia until the work he did post-retirement in the United States. Much of his writing focuses on his research in bacteriology and physical chemistry at universities including Cornell University and the University of Gottinghen.

Abstract

Abstract

The documents in this collection include and relate to a letter written by the French radiobiologist Raymond Latarjet to his friend Rufus Day in 1977. The letter tells the story of the invention of the double quartz prism monochromator by Jean Saidman before World War II, as well as the story of its loss and subsequent rediscovery by Latarjet. An English translation accompanies the letter as do two photographs of Latarjet and related letters.
