- A Review of Study (22 Sept. 64) J. Robert Oppenheimer (1904-1967)
American physicist who from 1943 to 1945 directed the laboratory that created the atomic bombs used in
World War II (1939-1945).
Following the
war, Oppenheimer served as chairman of the
board of scientific advisors of the
AEC (
Atomic Energy Commission, the US
Government agency responsible for directing the development and
use of
atomic energy). In 1949 he and his
board rejected proposals to build the
hydrogen bomb-a weapon far more destructive than the
atomic bomb. A few years later, Oppenheimer was suspended as a
security risk on grounds of
association with
Communists and because of his opposition to the
hydrogen bomb. After a highly-publicized
security hearing, he was denied access to classified
information and his
contract as
advisor to the
AEC was cancelled.
Robert J. Oppenheimer (1904 - 67),
American physicist,
director (1942 - 45) of the laboratory at
Los Alamos,
New Mexico, that designed and built the first atomic bombs. Oppenheimer later became a
main proponent of the civilian and international
control of
atomic energy. Oppenheimer strongly opposed, on both
technical and
moral grounds, the development of the
hydrogen bomb. He was suspended from the chairmanship of the US
Atomic Energy Commission in 1953 as an alleged
security risk.
