Russell, Henry Norris, 1877-1957
Henry N. Russell correspondence [microform], 1890-1950.
The correspondence spans Russell's entire career, including his student years at Princeton University and Cambridge University. Primarily professional correspondence, the collection reflects his work with the International Astronomical Union on stellar spectra, with the American Astronomical Society, the American Philosophical Society, the National Academy of Sciences, National Research Council, American Association for the Advancement of Science, the Ordnance Ballistic Advisory Committee, the Meteor Crater Exploration and Mining Company, and Ginn and Company. Topics include virtually all aspects of stellar astronomy, from binary and variable star systems to stellar atmospheres and interiors. Much of the correspondence with Otto Struve and Edwin Frost constitutes Russell's reviews of papers submitted to the Astrophysical Journal of a broad range of topics in astronomy, spectroscopic astrophysics and theoretical astrophysics. Correspondents include Walter S. Adams, Robert G. Aitken, Edward E. Barnard, William W. Campbell, Theodore Dunham, Edwin B. Frost, George R. Harrison, Albert G. Ingalls, Arthur S. King, Zdenek Kopal, Willem Jacob Luyten, William F. Meggers, Donald H. Menzel, John E. Merrill, Samuel Alfred Mitchell, Edward C. Pickering, Alexander G. Russell, Gordon M. Russell, Frederick Albert Saunders, Frank Schlesinger, Frederick H. Seares, Harlow Shapley, Charlotte Moore Sitterly, Joel Stebbins, and Otto Struve.
