Having studied Physics for a good many years and eventually getting a degree; imagine the excitement when finally setting foot on the historic grounds of the NBI in Copenhagen.
The thoughts and words of the old guard physicists like Bohr, Ehrenfest and Meitner clashing with the revolutionaries of Heisenberg, Pauli and Dirac still swirl around the NBI on this cloudy windy day.
The Niels Bohr Institute, located at 172100 Blegdamsvej in Copenhagen, Denmark, was host to the most brilliant minds of the pre-WWII atomic era. The informal meetings between Bohr and his younger associates became a formal gathering in the summer of 1929.
I do not believe atomic physics would have progressed as quickly if it were not for the annual summer meetings hosted by Bohr and the tremendous diplomatic efforts exerted by Bohr.
