Berlin: Verlag der Akademie der Wissenschaften, 1939. 1st Edition. Soft cover. Fine. 1st Edition. Soft cover. 4to - over 9¾ - 12" tall. 4to (296 x 210 mm). [1-3] 4-20 pp., text diagrams. Original publisher's printed wrappers (very light fading along spine and edges). Text very little age-tonend, mostly to outer margins. An almost pristine copy. ----
Dibner 168; Norman 963; DSB VI, pp. 16-17. FIRST EDITION, OFFPRINT ISSUE, of one of Hahn and Strassmann's fundamental papers on nuclear fission. In their radiochemical investigations they observed that neutron bombardment of uranium produced highly radioactive material, including the chemical elements barium, lanthanum and cerium. It was their collaborator Lise Meitner (at that time in Swedish exile from Nazi Germany), who interpreted their observations as nuclear fission. It remained to Bohr and Fermi to apply fission to the making of the atomic bomb, a project with which neither Hahn nor Strassmann had any involvement. Hahn was awarded the 1944 Nobel Prize in chemistry. (see R. Sohlmann et al. Nobel, the man and his prizes, p. 387). - Visit our website to see more images!

Description:
Berlin: Akademie der Wissenschaften, 1939. 1st Edition. NEAR FINE CONDITION FIRST EDITION IN ORIGINAL WRAPS OF THE OFFPRINT of the first of Hahn and Strassmann's "three fundamental papers on nuclear fission," work which, when confirmed, demonstrated the previously unknown phenomenon of nuclear fission (Dibner, Heralds of Science, 168). (NOTE: We separately offer another copy of this in very good -- somewhat faded -- condition). "Ãœber das Zerplatzen" constitutes the "first comprehensive account of the phenomenon of nuclear fission. In 1938, the radiochemist, Otto Hahn and the nuclear chemist Fritz Strassmann demonstrated the presence of radioactive barium, lanthanum and cesium among the products of neutron bombardment of uranium-a phenomenon that seemed to contradict all previous experiences of nuclear physics" (Norman). This paper "indicated fission of the uranium nucleus into two parts of about equal size with the release of much energy [in fact a tremendous jump over the energy produced in all…

Description:
Berlin: Julius Springer,, 1937. The path to discovering nuclear fission First edition, offprint issue, in which Meitner as the principal author and her colleagues examine the products of neutron bombardment of uranium and their decay patterns. It is part of a long series of experimental work undertaken by the Berlin team between 1934 and 1938, which culminated in the discovery of nuclear fission. "In 1934, intrigued by Enrico Fermi's experiments indicating that transuranic elements were produced by the neutron irradiation of uranium, Meitner [1878-1968] recruited Hahn, and later Strassmann, for the investigation that resulted in the discovery of nuclear fission. Meitner was the team's leader, interpreting the data from chemistry, radiochemistry, and her own physical measurements into the context of nuclear physics" (Dictionary of Women in Science). After the Second World War broke out, Meitner (of Jewish origin) fled Germany for Stockholm. Her forced emigration "shattered her career and clouded her…
