Twelve-page typed response to questionnaire with some detail on Mathieu-Faraggi's education at the Sorbonne; study at the Laboratoire de Recherche Physique (headed by Aimé Cotton) which was interrupted by her marriage, the birth of her child, and World War II; participation in the Resistance during the war; the return to her studies after the war, under Tsien San Tsiang; her scientific works at the Commissariat à l'Energie Atomique; and comments on the change in the public's attitude towards science since World War II. 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 achievements, the funding of their projects, the roles of related sciences--epecially 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.
