Biographical History

Chemist.

From the description of Oral history interview with Charles DuBois Coryell, 1960. (Columbia University In the City of New York). WorldCat record id: 309731440

Noted for his studies on fission process, Charles D. Coryell (1912-1971) left M.I.T. in 1942 to become Chief of the Fission Products Section of the Manhattan Project, first at the University of Chicago (1942-1946) and later, at Clinton Laboratories in Oak Ridge, Tennessee (1943-1946). The studies of J.A. Marinsky and L.E. Glendenin in his group led to the chemical identification of element 61, promethium. With Dr. Nathan Sugarman, Dr. Coryell was co-editor of a volume of 336 research papers from the wartime work of the Manhattan Project titled Radiochemical Studies: The Fission Projects. He returned to M.I.T. after the war, where he continued his investigations in fission fine-structure and beta decay theory until his death in 1971. In 1954, Coryell received the Louis Lipsky Fellowship at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Rehovoth, Israel.
