CIR Rm.5: Niels Bohr

Niels Bohr became a university lecturer at the University of Copenhagen at 1916. At 1921, he thrived in founding the institute of theoretical physics with the support of the Danish government and the Carlsberg foundation. Then in 1922, He was rewarded the Nobel Prize in physics for his services in the research of the formation of atoms and the radiation emanating from them. His foundation served as a central point for theoretical physicists in the 20’s and 30’s, where the majority of the finest theoretical physicist spent several times there.

British brainpower requested about Bohr's accessibility for work or insights of particular value. Bohr’s reply was exact that he could not assist.

This particular reply made that if Gestapo interrupts anything credited to Bohr it would point to no information regarding nuclear energy as it stood in 1941.

But this does not say that there is no possibility that Bohr confidentially made his own calculation going more than his work in 1939 with wheeler.

Niels Bohr was known as Nicholas baker when he worked on a top – secret Los Alamos laboratory in New Mexico. This project is known as the “Manhattan Project” which involves atomic bombs. He plays a very important role in this project, which led him to be known as “father confessor” or knowledgeable consultant and he was very concerned about nuclear arms race.
