GENERAL INTRODUCTION
Otto Robert Frisch (he was known by both names, singly or in
conjunction) is assured of a place in the history of twentieth-century physics.
Naturally endowed with an intuitive grasp of the practicalities of physical problems
and the deftness which enabled him to devise useful experiments and the relevant
inetcumentelidn to carry them out, he learnt his craft under such towering masters
as - successively - Otto Stern, Patrick Blackett and Neils Bohr.
In 1938 he
collaborated with his aunt Lise Meitner in the famous analysis of Hahn's and
Strassmann's experimental results on neutron collision, to which he also contribu-
ted not only the corroborative experiment but the name for the process - nuclear
fission.
In 1940, with Rudolf Peierls, he wrote the important memorandum 'On
the construction of a "super-bomb" based on a nuclear chain reaction in uranium’,

General Introduction
Mention of Frisch's family and his aunt Lise Meitner introduces
a further dimension into his career and the interest of his papers.
He belonged to
a large, gifted and close-knit family, many of. whose members were scattered by
the events of the Thirties and the Second World War or who were forced to rebuild
lives and careers on foreign soil.
Frisch's own father was briefly in Dachau and
had subsequently to find work and support his wife in Sweden.
is clear that
It
Frisch did his best to contribute to the support of his parents and other relations, often
in tiny sums from his own modest earnings; his sunny nature and unassuming kindness
must surely have been a major factor in the willingness of his parents, and later his
aunt, to emigrate yet again on retirement in order to spend their last years with him
in Cambridge.
With this cosmopolitan European background it
is not surprising
Music was much more for Frisch than a 'gift' or hobby.
He played
several instruments, but chiefly the piano, on which he was proficient to recital
standard.
In later life he gave increasing time to music, regularly attending the
that Frisch had - or acquired from necessity - considerable linguistic fluency, which
is in evidence throughout his papers.
He rapidly learnt Danish and English when
occasion required and continued to use Danish and German for lectures, speeches
or correspondence to the end of his life;
English became however his language of
choice for writing.
Another gift was sketching, particularly of semi-cartoon like-
nesses of colleagues; there are some specific items of samples of his drawings, but
others are scattered passim on letters, conference programmes, menus and the like.

the wartime work on the atomic bomb project is only scantily documented in a
private collection; there is, however, his original eye-witness account of the
Trinity Test (B.135).
For the later period, the paucity of material relating to the
Cavendish Laboratory reflects Frisch's lack of interest in administrative and com-
mittee work and his preference for relatively small-scale experimental projects such
as his scanning device, and the various constructions and gadgets which he continued
to devise for his Laser Scan company to the end of his life.

DIARIES AND NOTEBOOKS
Frisch made little distinction between these types of journal.
In earlier
years, he tended to use 'notebooks' in which he would draw up tables of days and
weeks on some of the pages, thus creating a ‘diary’.
Later on,
he used ‘diaries’
and made them serve for wider purposes than the usual day-to-day record.
From
about 1947 he often chose the 'Lefax' system which enabled him to keep several
years' notes in one binder;
see A.24 - A.31, or,
for somewhat disorganised
examples, A.12, A.13, A.22.
The contents of all these documents are similar though their proportions
vary.
They include experimental results, ideas for research, journals of visits,
notes of conferences, meetings and lectures, personal jottings, memos and addresses.
Even in his address books Frisch would use the thumb~index to suit his own purposes;
thus 'I' may turn up 'Ideas", 'M! lead to 'Money', etc.
These books therefore
supplement the scientific and technical material found in Section B as well as
documenting Frisch's personal life.
Both ends of book used.
The material is presented as a chronological sequence so far as this is
ascertainable and Frisch's methods of work allow.

He shared Frisch's interests in practical gadgetry,
and in music, but took no degree.
He ermigrated
to Australia during the 1930s and remained there
except for occasional visits, working relatively
humbly for watchmakers, teaching and playing
music and translating light verse in his spare time.
