Biography of Lew Kowarski
Lew Kowarski was born in St. Petersburg, Russia, on February 10, 1907. His father, Nicholas, was a businessman, and his mother, Olga Vlassenko, was a singer. He received a degree in chemical engineering from the University of Lyons in 1928. Kowarski went on to study physics, earning both his B. Sc. (1931) and D. Sc. (1935) degrees from the University of Paris. He became a naturalized French citizen on November 16, 1939.
Kowarski's active work in nuclear physics began in 1937 under the direction of Frédéric Joliot at the Collège de France. In 1939, Professor Joliot, Hans Halban, and Kowarski formed a research team which performed the crucial experiments that established the possibility of a nuclear chain reaction. When war broke out in 1940, Kowarski and Halban fled to England under rather dramatic circumstances and continued their work at the Cavendish Laboratory, Cambridge.
Kowarski was responsible for the design and construction of the first nuclear reactor in Canada (1945), and the first two reactors in France (1948 and 1952). He also played a key role in the founding of CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research), and was named its first Director of Scientific and Technical Services in 1954. He was instrumental in developing CERN's computer capacities and went on to create the Data Handling Division, which he directed until his retirement in 1972. During this same time, he served as scientific advisor to the European Nuclear Energy Agency.
Kowarski published well over 100 papers, mostly in English, ranging in style from technical to popular. He held visiting professorships at Purdue University (1963-66), University of Texas at Austin (1967-71), and Boston University (1972-78).
Kowarski was a frequent speaker at scientific conferences in the United States and Europe. It was his desire to link research and scientific diplomacy through his travel and lectures. Later in life he became increasingly interested in the interaction of science and society and advocated bringing current and reliable information on nuclear technology to the public.
The distinctions bestowed on Kowarski included: Fellow, American Nuclear Society (1963); Decorated Officer of the Legion of Honor (1964); and U.S. Atomic Energy Commission Citation Award (1968).
Kowarski married Dorothée (Dora) Heller in 1929. They had one daughter, Irène Denise (Mrs. Gérard Hacques), and divorced in 1947. He married Kathe A. Freundlich, July 23, 1948.
He died on July 30, 1979.
Scope and Contents of Collection
The Lew Kowarski Papers provide an important source of documentation for the early history of nuclear fission research and reactor technology, and the impact of this research and technology on society.
Most of the material deposited covers the years 1939-1973. Among the topics documented is the collaboration among Kowarski, Frederic Joliot, and Hans Halban in Paris in 1939 and 1940 that resulted in experiments which helped to establish the possibility of a nuclear chain reaction. Kowarski and Halban continued this work in Britain after the invasion of France in 1940. From 1945 Kowarski pioneered the development of nuclear reactors in Canada, and then in France. After 1951, his administrative work was chiefly at the European Council for Nuclear Research CERN (the bulk of Kowarski's files from his work at CERN remain at CERN). His interests extended from technical problems of reactor construction to issues of international cooperation.
The papers are divided into eight series: Bibliographies, Correspondence, Notes and Manuscripts, Documents, Personal Materials, Publications, Lecture Materials, and Diaries.
Among the several accounts of Kowarski's career which are available is his own "Notice sur les Titres et Travaux Scientifiques," dated January 1966, which consists of a curriculum vitae and summaries of his work in various specialties (Series I, B.1, F.1). The social and political context of Kowarski's work in 1939-1951 is discussed in "Scientists in Power," by Spencer Weart (Cambridge: Harvard University Press, 1979).
Researchers should be aware of the Additions to the Lew Kowarski Papers (1907-1981) (see next paragraph). The first deposit and additions cover similar time periods but the first deposit has a substantially larger amount of earlier correspondence (late 1930s to 1950s) covering the period of Kowarski's pioneering research; the Notes and Manuscripts series in the first deposit is also from this earlier period (this earlier material has been indexed). Much of the correspondence in the additions relates to Kowarski's later (more administrative) work at CERN. Both collections include series of writings and publications, and lecture materials (with some duplication between collections but a larger selection in the additions). The first deposit only has series of diaries and of personal material. Overall there is some duplication between the collections but they are also complementary - both need to be reviewed to get the full picture.
The additions to the Lew Kowarski Papers document Kowarski's long and versatile career, and provide an important source of information on early nuclear fission research and reactor technology, the subsequent rise of nuclear science and its impact on society, and developments in the field of high-energy physics. Kowarski was an intellectual and social man who traveled frequently throughout the United States and Europe as a speaker, lecturer and advisor. He was an eloquent communicator with an extraordinary command of English and maintained life-long social and professional relationships with friends and colleagues throughout the world. Much of the correspondence is comprised of two-way communications since Kowarski kept carbon copies of his letters. Correspondents include: Luis Alvarez, Otto Robert Frisch, Samuel Goudsmit, William Frederick Miller, Joseph Rotblat, Maurice Shapiro, Victor Weisskopf, Eugene Wigner, and many others.
The collection covers the years 1930-1981, with the bulk of the material dated post-1950. Materials are in English and French, with a few pieces in German and Russian. Reflected in the correspondence and writings are insights into the social and political events of the day, and a chronicle of developments in the international community of atomic scientists, including: World War II and the movement of European scientists; the application of reactor technology; the social impact of nuclear technology; nuclear energy development at the U.S. atomic centers; the development of data processing devices in high- energy physics; the importance and uses of computers in science; international cooperation; and peaceful uses of atomic energy.
The collection contains a combination of manuscripts, notes, and reprints (many annotated) from which Kowarski drew his numerous writings and lectures. Kowarski's work at CERN was primarily administrative, involving lectures, travel arrangements, conference attendance, and the like. Except for his early work in atomic energy, and his involvement in establishing data processing at CERN (including the subsequent development of the Hough-Powell Digitizer) there is little information of a highly technical nature.

Arrangement of Collection
The order of the folders in the first deposit roughly follows Kowarski's own arrangement. The correspondence series is divided into several categories, within which items are arranged chronologically. In this series are copies of third-party correspondence sent to Kowarski to support his patent cases. The general and third-party correspondence prior to 1960 were indexed by Spencer Weart in 1973, as were the laboratory notes and reports, 1939-45. Indexed materials are noted with asterisks in the folder listing and the index of correspondents follows the folder listing.
The first deposit of materials consists of 9 boxes divided into 8 series. This material has been maintained as a distinct collection with a separate finding aid (including indices for Series II, III and IV - Correspondence, Notes and Manuscripts, and Documents).
Most of the correspondence in the additions covers the years 1960-1978 and arrived in chronological order, separated into incoming and outgoing. This arrangement was retained. There also were two sets of correspondence, 1953-1963, arranged alphabetically by correspondent, with incoming and outgoing together in chronological order; these two sets were integrated retaining the alphabetical and chronological arrangement. Several folders of miscellaneous correspondence from the early 1950s and late 1970s were kept as found, as subject files, since their contents are related. Some correspondence concerning writings and visiting professorships was left in context throughout Series II and III (Subject and Writings and Lectures).
Diaries were moved to an existing series in the first deposit and can be found in Series VIII (Folders 1, 3, 5-10). They cover the years 1932-1956 and include lab notes, daily appointments, accounts, notes on conversations, and travel dates.
The Lectures material (Series III) was found in several boxes, most coded by school and some in labeled folders. All coded materials and related matter have been brought together and arranged chronologically.
The Subject and Writings material (Series II) was largely coded or foldered by subject and organization. This material, received at different times, has been brought together and arranged chronologically. However, a portion of the Subject and Writings files (Series II F) was ordered according to a coded bibliography of Kowarski's work, 1930-1967; this arrangement was retained. The bibliography can be found in Box 14, Folder 8, along with additional copies annotated by Mrs. Kowarski beyond 1967. The subsequent folders of publications and writings are ordered according to the code numbers on the bibliographies.
There has been an attempt to adhere as closely as possible to Kowarski's arrangement and this has, in large part, been achieved with the coded materials. Folder titles have been retained when possible, though sometimes folders were relabeled for clarity. In some cases, subjects of particular note follow folder titles. The researcher should be aware that there has been no distinction made between personal, professional and family correspondence.
Material Separated from Collection
Photographs have been removed to the Emilio Segrè Visual Archives and replaced by photocopies.
Provenance and Acquisition Information
The papers were in Kowarski's home in Geneva at the time of his death and were the gift of Mrs. Kate Kowarski, his widow. Some papers were retained by Mrs. Kowarski, and the bulk of his files from his work at CERN were kept at CERN.
The first deposit was received as a gift from Mrs. Kate Kowarski by the American Institute of Physics Niels Bohr Library in 1980.
The second deposit was received as a gift from Mrs. Kate Kowarski by the American Institute of Physics Niels Bohr Library in 1982, 1983, 1984, and 1985.
Processing Information
The first deposit was processed in August 1981.
The second deposit was processed by Vickie Allen in April 1996.
Duplicate materials and rusting paper clips and staples were removed from the collection. Fading and deteriorating materials were photocopied onto acid-free paper and the originals removed except when there was some value in retaining them. All materials were rehoused in archival quality, acid-free folders and boxes. Any notations made by the processor to aid identification were made in pencil and enclosed in brackets. All other notations were on the materials when received and include notations by Mrs. Kowarski to clarify names of correspondents.
