Centennial of the birth of Enrico Fermi [colloquium], 29 February 2002. Fermi and associates contributions to the development of the technology of neutron optics, diffraction, and scattering.

Text of a talk given by Wattenberg at a Physics Colloquium at the University of Illinois. Covers some aspects of Fermi's lesser-known contributions to physics, including early experiments using neutron optics, diffraction, and scattering that formed the basis for later research with neutron beams.
