In the two years I spent in Cambridge, most of the time at the Cavendish, I had two, maybe three, personal encounters with Rutherford.

Abstract

In the two years I spent in Cambridge, most of the time at the Cavendish, I had two, maybe three, personal encounters with Rutherford. My first encounter was the day after my arrival, on the stairs of the Cavendish. Blackett introduced me. I filled one of my rare letters to my father with a description of the event, and of the sense of awe that I felt. I spoke of him as a ‘big carnivore’.
