Scientist of World War II
Niels Bohr:
Lived from (1885-1962)
Niels Bohr was Danish physicist. He won his first Nobel Prize in 1922, and he was only 37 years old. His progress of understanding the structure of atoms, the theory that electrons lived outside of the nucleus and orbits of energy is what one him the Noble Prize. Neils continued his research as the director of Theoretical Physics at the University of Copenhagen for the remainder of his life. So he would have hoped, but WWII happen and Niels thought his information needed to be shared. Neils then spent his time in England and the United states, helping with the development of the atomic bomb.

Klaus Paul Alfred Clusius:
Lived from (19 March 1903 – 28 May 1963)
Klaus was a German physical chemist from Breslau Silesia. Klaus worked on the Germans nuclear energy project also called the Uranium Club. Klaus usually worked on isotope separation techniques and heavy water production. When the war was over Klaus became a professor of physical science at the University of Zurich, he also died there.

Glen Seaborg:
April 19, 1912 - February 25, 1999
In 1929 he graduated at David Starr Jordan High School in Los Angeles as
valedictorian of his class He entered the University of California, Los Angeles, in 1929, and received the degree of Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of California, Berkeley, in 1937. From 1937 to 1939 he was the personal assistant of the late G. N. Lewis, with whom he published a number of scientific papers. In 1946, he took responsibility for direction of nuclear chemical research at the Lawrence Radiation Laboratory, operated for the Atomic Energy Commission by the University of California. In the same year, he was appointed by President Truman to be a member of the AEC's first General Advisory Committee. after the next election he was appointment by President Kennedy to the Atomic Energy Commission in 1961, when he was designated Chairman of the Commission. Dr. Seaborg was given a leave of absence from the University of California from 1942-1946, during which period he headed the plutonium work of the Manhattan Project at the University of Chicago Metallurgical Laboratory. He was one of the scientist to discover plutonium and all further transuranium elements through element 102.
