Radiation -- History.

Frederick Soddy (1877-1956) was a chemist and Nobel Prize winning radioactive decay and radium emanation researcher. Papers reflect work on Soddy’s memoirs by author Muriel Howorth, including correspondence with Soddy as well as with other scientists.

Lloyd E. Hawes (1912-1988), A.B., 1933, Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts; M.D., 1937, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts, was Professor and Chair of the University of Massachusetts Medical School’s Radiology Department (1975-1980) and a developer of the radiology department for the Harvard Medical School-planned Harvard Community Health Plan (now Harvard Pilgrim Health Care). Papers reflect Hawes’s work as a teacher, administrator, and historian of radiology.
