Bendall, Hill's Royal Society memorialist, in September 1992 and June 1993. OUTLINE OF THE CAREER OF ROBIN HILL eligible for war service. Robert Hill (he was known to his friends and colleagues as Robin) was born in Leamington Spa, He was educated at Bedales School until 1917 when he was Warwickshire, on 2 April 1899. admitted to Emmanuel College Cambridge. Before he could begin his university studies Hill became He joined the Cambridge University Officers' Training Corps but in the In February 1918, after a short spell in training on autumn of 1917 was drafted into the infantry. Salisbury Plain, he was transferred to the Anti-Gas Establishment of the Royal Engineers, based at University College London. In 1919 Hill resumed his studies at Cambridge where he was to remain He read Chemistry, Physics and Botany in the Natural Sciences for the rest of his academic career.

At Bedales School Hill had developed a scientific interest in natural dyes and dyeing techniques. He created his own dyes and in later years Hill made up the paints he used in his water-colour paintings. This interest and his chemistry degree contributed to Hill's first postgraduate research, on inorganic pigments. In 1922 Hill joined F.G. Hopkins's Department of Biochemistry. To his disappointment, he His work on It was first described haemoglobin led subsequent research on the properties of artificial haemoglobins with other metals replacing the iron of the haem pigment. After a series of papers on the properties of haemoglobin, a mutual interest in haem compounds led in 1926 to collaboration with David Keilin, then working at the Molteno Institute, of February 1917. In the early 1920s Hill developed a ‘fish-eye' camera, a camera with a lens able to Another early interest of Hill's had been meteorology.

In 1937 he discovered the 'Hill reaction’. When isolated chloroplasts from green plant leaves were illuminated in the presence The of certain iron containing salts they produced oxygen while the iron underwent reduction. amount of oxygen evolved was initially small, requiring considerable ingenuity to measure it and Hill's experience with the spectroscopic determination of small amounts of oxygen in haemoglobin was very important. His discovery of the ‘Hill reaction’, followed by research on plant cytochromes established his reputation in this field. Despite this and his other research achievements Hill held no higher degree until the award of the Cambridge Sc.D. in 1942. Council. He remained working in Cambridge biochemistry department.

He visited Nyasaland Barton near Cambridge. Here Hill grew many of the plants and fruit trees he was to use in his research. Hill's work from 1922 had been supported by a series of research grants from various in cooperation with the East Malling Research Station, Maidstone, Kent he undertook research on In 1935 Hill married Priscilla, the sister of his friend E.B. Worthington. They bought Vatches Farm, in biochemistry remained broad. He continued research into plant and inorganic pigments and in 1943, fruit tree rootstocks, much of it on trees grown at Vatches Farm. In 1958 Hill was asked to advise on from the Agricultural Research Council in 1966 but his research activities continued little diminished suggested that the electron carriers shuttle electrons from one photosystem, involving the splitting of photosynthesis research with the discovery, with F.L.

Hill NCUACS 46/2/94 until his death in 1991. In his later years Hill worked particularly extensively on the wider issue of the application of the Second Law of Thermodynamics to photosynthesis. Although his first major paper on this subject had been rejected for publication, three further papers were published in the 1980s. He continued also to pursue research on natural and inorganic dyes, fruit tree research and meteorology. Hill was accorded many honours, principally for his contributions to photosynthesis. He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1946 and was awarded a Royal Medal of the Royal Society in 1963 He was elected a Foreign Honorary Member of the American and the Copley Medal in 1987.

DESCRIPTION OF THE COLLECTION in 1946, and the award of its Royal and Copley medals. The section also includes notebooks used correspondence and photographs. It includes summaries by Hill of his research activities and some documentation of honours he received, including his election to the Fellowship of the Royal Society The material is presented in the order given in the List of Contents. This collection covers almost all Section A, Biographical, consists principally of Hill's own records of his career, personal and family the section document Hill's research from his days at Bedales School to research notes written very except that relating to the fish-eye camera, which is to be found in section C. in meteorology and dyeing, school and undergraduate notes, shortly before his death, a period of over seventy years. Section B, Research, is the largest in the collection. for recording domestic and personal matters. It documents all aspects of Hill's research his subsequent investigations into postgraduate research on inorganic pigments, and scientific interests The papers in this Represented here are Hill's earliest Hill's first R. Hill NCUACS 46/2/94 biochemistry of haemoglobin and haematin, including his collaboration from 1926 with Keilin on the isolation of cytochrome c. There is good documentation of his work on photosynthesis including research leading up to his 1937 discovery of the ‘Hill reaction’, and his and F.L. Bendall's outlining of the 'Z scheme’ in 1960. Hill's interest in the relationship of thermodynamics to photosynthesis is particularly well-represented - including a sequence of fifty notebooks used over a period of thirty years from 1960. Hill continued to work in other areas, most of which are represented in this section. These included work on the chemistry of anthraquinone colouring matters in plants in the 1930s, work on dye-stuffs, and collaboration with A.B. Beakbane and others at the East Malling Research Station on the biology of fruit tree rootstocks. The bulk of the material is in the form of notebooks of various formats, but there are also research notes, graphs, calculations etc. Much of this loose material was found in Hill's folders or envelopes, often identified by subject titles inscribed thereon. At the end of the section is a sequence of photographs found loose. Section C, Fish-eye camera, provides documentation of Hill's development of the camera in the 1920s and 1930s. There are Hill's notebooks recording his development of the lens system, many photographs taken by Hill using the lens, correspondence relating to the marketing of the camera by and examples of the ‘fish-eye' camera. of Hill's research from the 1920s until his retirement. Hill's teaching is documented in section F. Section D, Cambridge University, is chiefly research reports on work in progress in plant R. & J. Beck Ltd, and newspaper and magazine cuttings with photographs taken using the camera. some of Hill's work published or intended for publication c.1928-1985. This material has been linked where possible to the list of Hill's publications prepared for his Royal Society memoir by D.S. Bendall biochemistry for the Department of Biochemistry annual reports and material relating to the funding Section E, Publications, brings together notes, drafts, correspondence and other related material for The Whipple Museum of the History of Science, Cambridge holds further stereoscopic photographs includes notes for lectures and for practical classes in plant biochemistry, chiefly dating from the photosynthesis, including those of papers submitted for publication to the Royal Society in 1961 and Nature in 1980 but rejected as unacceptable. There is also a sequence of editorial correspondence Section F, Lectures, principally consists of material for Hill's teaching at Cambridge University. It at A.12.

Hill NCUACS 46/2/94 1930s and 1950s, and material for a lecture in a series organised by Joseph Needham on the history of biochemistry. There is very little material relating to public and invitation lectures. Section G, Societies and organisations, is slight. It comprises material relating to eleven British and international organisations. Of particular interest is material relating to the British Photobiology Group (later Society) of which Hill was a founder member in 1955, and the Comité (later Association) International de Photobiologie - Hill was elected an Honorary Member in 1968. Section H, Visits and conferences, presents a chronological sequence, 1928-1988, of some of Hill's engagements both in the UK and abroad. Those for which most documentation survives are the visit of Hill to Singapore and the Dutch East Indies in 1932, his visit to France in 1947 as part of a Cambridge University/East Malling Research Station arboricultural expedition and a visit to Nyasaland (Malawi) in 1958 to advise on the biochemistry of tea fermentation (and the subsequent establishment of a research programme). Section J, Correspondence, is a substantial section. Hill rarely kept carbon copies or manuscript drafts of outgoing letters so the correspondence is almost entirely incoming letters. In a few cases Hill made a rough draft of a reply on the letter received. However, there are also a number of Hill's manuscript drafts, particularly those from the late 1970s, that have draft letters to two or more correspondents thereon. There are three extensive sequences of correspondence, from E.J.H. which it was found. rootstocks from 1943, and with D.A. Walker, a fellow researcher on photosynthesis from the 1950s.

Hill's interest in the relationship of thermodynamics to photosynthesis is particularly well-represented - including a sequence of fifty notebooks used over a period of thirty years from 1960. Although Hill's reputation was founded largely on his work in photosynthesis he continued to work in other areas, most of which are represented in this section. These included dye-stuffs, the chemistry of anthraquinone colouring matters and other glycosides in plants in the 1930s, and the biology of fruit tree rootstocks, carried out in collaboration with A.B.

Hill NCUACS 46/2/94 SECTION C FISH-EYE CAMERA Hill had a long-standing interest in meteorology. In the early 1920s he began to work on a camera equipped with a ‘fish-eye' lens which could photograph through 180° and thus take photographs of the whole sky at one instant. Using a pair of fish-eye cameras one could calculate the height of clouds. In addition to photographing the whole sky Hill's camera it was also possible to photograph the whole of the inside of a building, town square etc. The first form of lens was described by Hill in 'A lens for whole sky photographs’, Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society 50 (1924), 227-232 (Bibliog. no. 7) where it aroused considerable interest. Hill approached R. & J. Beck Ltd and had a number of experimental lens designed before camera was marketed by them. The camera went under a number of names; the ‘Robin Hill camera’, ‘Hill's cloud camera’, 'Whole-sky camera’ etc. It is probably best known, however, as the fish-eye camera.

Correspondence re and arising from visit Holland. to De Bilt Observatory, Hill visited De Bilt Observatory in August where he demonstrated his camera. He hoped to be able to use the camera on a visit to the Dutch East Indies planned for 1931 and wished to have the official sanction of the Dutch meteorological office. C. Schoute suggested practical possibilities for the lens as a drift measuring device and range finder. He suggested a patent be taken out and the German company Zeiss approached to manufacture the apparatus. Arising from the visit The correspondence principally relates to Schoute's ideas for the camera and his efforts to have the adapted camera patented. The material also includes 2pp typescript draft for the patent application ‘Improvements in photographic lenses' and newspaper cuttings, one relating to the R101 disaster suggesting better study of cloud movements might have prevented the disaster.
