Response to 1981 History of Nuclear Physics Survey, 1982.

Fairly detailed eight-page typed answer to questionnaire with emphasis in particular on McIntyre's Ph.D and post-doctoral research at Princeton University with Robert Hofstadter, and at Stanford University (1948-1949, 1950-1957), and the nature of his scientific work. Recipients were asked to discuss their entry into a scientific career in general and nuclear physics in particular, their work during the Second World War, their scientific achievments, the funding of their projects, the roles of related sciences--especially high energy physics--in their research, their work as educators, their perceptions of the public's attitude towards science, and their involvement in physics-related organizations.
