Otto Frisch
Otto Frisch (1904-2000) was an Austrian-born physicist who, along with his collaborator Lise Meitner, played a significant role in the discovery of nuclear fission. This groundbreaking work laid the foundation for the development of nuclear energy and atomic bombs. Frisch's insights into the mechanics of fission and his contributions to the Manhattan Project were pivotal during World War II. After the war, he continued to contribute to the fields of nuclear physics and quantum mechanics while advocating for the responsible use of scientific knowledge. His legacy is intertwined with the complex ethical implications of nuclear technology.
