Papers, 1915-1970.

Correspondence, mathematical calculations, and a short manuscript. Correspondence (1915-1970) relates to Landé's approach to quantum mechanics. The bulk of the correspondence (1915-1927) relates to quantum theory during its most active development. Also includes undated mathematical calculations by Landé, and an undated manuscript, "On Superconductivity," [by Frintz London?]. Correspondents include: E. Back, H. Bakhuissen, Max Born, Niels Bohr, A. H. Bucherer, A. Einstein, Paul Epstein, B. Freundlich, E. Fues, W. Gordon, S. Goudsmit, W. Heitler, W. Heisenberg, F. Henning, J. Königsberger, H. Konen, R. Ladenburg, F. London, E. Madelung, A. Magnus, R. Ortvay, F. Paschen, W. Pauli, M. Planck, E. Schrödinger, L. A. Sommer, A. Sommerfeld, O. Stern, J. H. Van Vleck, G. Varga, P. Zeeman.
