Hofstadter, Robert, 1915-1990
Robert Hofstadter response to 1988 History of Nuclear Physics Survey, 1985-1988.
File includes curriculum vitae and 26-page typed 1985 manuscript, entitled: A Personal View of Nucleon Structure as Revealed by Electron Scattering, in which Hofstadter describes his graduate studies at Princeton where he worked with Edward U. Condon and others; his interest in nuclear physics beginning in 1936; work before World War II with Louis Ridenour at the University of Pennsylvania; war work first on optical proximity fuses at the National Bureau of Standards and later on aircraft at the Norden Laboratory; and lengthy discussion of post war nuclear physics work at Princeton University and work at Stanford University on electron scattering beginning in 1950.
Hofstadter died in 1990.
