This interest in trace measurements carried over to his work in CERN’s Health Physics Group, which he joined in 1962. During these early years at the Laboratory, Klaus measured isotope concentrations in meteorites and as leader of the Spallation Research Group he used the Synchrocyclotron (SC) to measure isotope production by protons. Klaus came to CERN in 1956 together with Wolfgang Gentner for whom he had worked as an assistant from 1954-55, after gaining a diploma in economics and a doctorate in physics at the University of Freiburg, Germany. Klaus Goebel, an early leading figure in radiation protection at CERN, passed away on 1 October 2009. The lives of Gustav Hertz, Heinz Barwich, Bruno Pontecorvo, klaus Fuchs, Manfred von Ardenne, Peter Adolf von Thiessen, Max Christian Theodor Steenbeck, Gernot Zippe, Max Vollmer, are in relation with the development of nuclear research where they brought their contribution. It treats how the german scientists were ostracized and then, their return to Germany. The fifth chapter of the cooperation between German scientists and USSR from 1945 to 1961 is tackled in this issue. The red atom - the help to Russia of German scientists between 1945 - 1961 The life of the communist and scientist Klaus Fuchs (GL)Įlemental Germans Klaus Fuchs, Rudolf Peierls and the making of British nuclear culture 1939-59Ĭhristoph Laucht offers the first investigation into the roles played by two German-born emigre atomic scientists, Klaus Fuchs and Rudolf Peierls, in the development of British nuclear culture, especially the practice of nuclear science and the political implications of the atomic scientists' work, from the start of the Second World War until 1959. Furtheron he could rely on the memory of many actors in the surrounding of Klaus Fuchs, who also found the way to the publicity after the end of the East-West-Conflict. The author evaluated an extensive source material from the USA, Great Britain and the Sovjet Union, released to pubication not till after 1990. This book is worldwide the first comprehensive biography of a man, who had been regarded as the ''most dangerous spy of the 20th century'' in the western world, and his work had been kept a secret in the East lasting for decades. In 1950 he was exposed and condemned because of spying. All knowledge he yield, all information he got, he passed on secret ways to the Sovjet Union. From 1943 to 1946 he cooperated in the US atomic bomb program, called Manhatten Project. A decisive role played the German physicist Klaus Fuchs.

In 1949 the Sovjet Union ignited her first atomic bomb, many years earlyer than expected by western secret services.
