File includes: accounts of Richard's graduate studies at Rice University with T. W. Bonner (measuring fast neutron energy spectra); his World War II work at Rice (on the Uranium Project), at the University of Minnesota, and at Los Alamos; his impressions of colleagues Hans Bethe, Niels Bohr, Enrico Fermi, Richard Feynman, and Emilio Segr.̌ File also includes a copy of a five-page talk given by Richards at the 1989 nuclear physics reunion at the University of Wisconsin. The talk, titled Early Interactions of H. T. Richards with the University of Wisconsin Nuclear Physics, briefly discusses research developments in precision energy measurement, resonance scattering studies, gamma ray studies, apparatus and accelerator developments, polarization studies, the Tandem Neutron Program, atomic and molecular effects, the Brazilian connection, quark search, tandem charged particle and relation studies, charged particle polarization studies, and ion implantation perturbed angular correlation techniques (IMPACT).
