Papers, 1946-1999.Johnson, Hugh M.Papers, 1946-1999.4.25 linear feet (9 boxes)The collection is centered on Johnson's time at Lockheed Space & Missile Company (1963-1986), but there is also material pertaining to his work before and after this period. The bulk of the research is on x-ray astronomy, but there is also material on Johnson's other research interests (x-ray astronomy, nebulae, galaxies, galactic structure, and interstellar matter). The collection is comprised mainly of correspondence, with lesser amounts of notes, newspaper clippings, and notebooks. The correspondence is both personal and professional. The correspondents include: Helmet A. Abt, Lawrence H. Aller, Frank M. Bateson, Bart J. Bok, Riccardo Giacconi, David S. Heeschen, George Herbig, William Hiltner, W.E. Howard III, Helen Hogg, Willem Luyten, N.U. Mayall, Donald Osterbrock, Stuart Pottasch, Arcadio Poveda, Frederick D. Seward, Lindsey Smith, Theodore Snow, Bruce Stephenson, Polydore Swings, Yervant Terzian, and Gart Westerhout. Some correspondence related to specific research subjects, observatories, meetings and programs is accompanied by research notes and photographs. The collection also contains notebooks from courses at the University of Chicago (taught by Subrahmanyan Chandrasekhar, Gerard Peter Kuiper, and Bengt Stromgren), the 1964 Hamburg IAU meeting, Yerkes Observatory Colloquia, and an NSF conference for teachers of astronomy at Berkeley in 1954.

(Donald Howard), 1901-1976.Autobiography, 1974.681 p.One fourth of the biography tells of Menzels's family history, familly life, activities and interests (chemistry) in a detailed and often amusing way. He describes his studies in mathematics and astronomy at the University of Denver from 1917; his travels to South Africa; and his Ph. D. in astrophysics from Princeton University in 1924. The rest of the biography deals with his scientific career at Iowa State and Ohio State Universities, his position on the staff at Lick Observatory (1926-1932), Lawrence Aller's story, Menzel's joining the faculty at Harvard University in 1932, World War II effort in the U.S. Navy, and the directorship of Harvard College Observatory in 1954. The account includes many characterizations of scientists and a description of the Loyalty Security Hearings, the Velikovsky affair, and his views of philosophy and religion, which often are very entertaining.

Wilson, who was most active from the mid-1930s into the 1980s. Wilson corresponded frequently with astronomers from a variety of universities in the United States and abroad, and the collection is representative of the deeply international and collaborative nature of astronomical and astrophysical research in the second half of the twentieth century. It also contains valuable and insightful material related to the schism between Mount Wilson and CalTech in the 1970s and 1980s, and the near-demise of Mount Wilson during that decade.

The information spans most of the twentieth century and deals with the administrations under presidents Herman B Wells, John Ryan, Thomas Ehrlich, and Myles Brand. The project occurred in two parts. The first round of interviews was with administrators, trustees, and other high-ranking members of the university hierarchy. The second round of interviews was with senior faculty from a number of departments in the College of Arts and Sciences. The project is a survey of Indiana University's history as a whole including information about various academic departments, athletics, student organizations, campus growth, and the university's growth in the twentieth century.EnglishIndiana University, Bloomington.

Papers span Chandrasekhar's career and document his student years at Cambridge University, his teaching career at the University of Chicago, scientific research and writing in astrophysics, editing of the Astrophysical Journal, and connections with family members and friends in India. Because of his long tenure at the University of Chicago, Chandrasekhar's papers constitute an important source for documenting the development of the Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics and Yerkes Observatory, and provide much information on colleagues and students from the late 1930s to the early 1980s. Correspondents include Lawrence H. Aller, T.G. Cowling, George Gamow, Gerhard Herzberg, Gerard P. Kuiper, Norman Lebovitz, Paul Ledoux, C.C. Lin, J.E. Littlewood, William H. Reid, Pol Swings, John von Neumann, and others. Organizations represented include the American Astronomical Society, the American Physical Society, and the Royal Society of London. Includes notes Chandrasekhar took while a student of Arthur S. Eddington, R.H. Fowler, P.A.M. Dirac and others. Also includes notes for courses taught at the University of Chicago.
