DSB IX, p.262-3; PMM 422 (cf.) First separate printing. In this paper Meitner and Frisch confirmed experiments and interpreted Hahn and Strassmann's report of detecting barium after bombarding uranium with neutrons. Their conclusion was that the reaction represented Nuclear Fission. "Fission" was a term that Frisch had coined earlier in the year in a report in 'Nature' to define a type of transmutation in which the nucleus divides into two smaller moities which can be compared with the division of such a drop [of liquid] into two smaller droplets.
Erste Ausgabe. - Meitner und ihr Neffe beschreiben hier die physikalischen Vorgänge des Experiments vom Januar 1939 von Otto Hahn und Fritz Straßmann einen Monat später. Die Veröffentlichung Meitners zeigt das enorme explosive Potential des Versuchs und setzte damit eine Entwicklung in Bewegung, die zum Manhattan-Projekt und zur Entwicklung der Atombombe führte.
