There are correspondence, notebooks, reports, recordings, etc. of this award-winning physicist and pioneer theorist on the existence of black holes. A student of Karl Herzfeld at Johns Hopkins University, John Archibald Wheeler studied nuclear fission with Neils Bohr. The numerous volumes of research notebooks in the collection, Wheeler's daily record of calculations, meetings attended and conversations held about his work, are of primary significance. Among other subjects, they cover physics, nucleonics, quantum electrodynamics, and relativity. The correspondence in the collection contains many personal evaluations of scientists (subject to restrictions on use), as well as Wheeler's contributions to promoting physics and scientific education and training in general. There are important series relating to his participation in the 1950s on the Committee on Scientific and Technical Personnel of NATO, headed by Senator Henry M. Jackson, and his organizational work on the Joint Committee of the American Physical Society and the American Philosophical Society on the History of Theoretical Physics in the Twentieth Century.
