The author, a professor of physics at Northwestern University, was scientific head of the Alsos Mission. "Appointed by the War Department at the request of Major General L.R. Groves, U.S. Army chief of the atom bomb project, it was the duty of this Mission to follow immediately in the wake of our armies in the innvasion of Europe, for the purpose of determining precisely how much the Germans knew about the atom bomb and how far they had progressed in its construction.
