 [No title]
Jensen had a reputation for very left-wing political opinions which may be why he was never part of the inner circle of the German program although he did work connected with it.
Jensen described what he knew of Heisenberg’s work, but remember that in 1942, they were still using the spherical design with a paraffin moderator and uranium metal powder.
Jensen was working on the extraction of heavy water and he was clearly in contact with Heisenberg.

 Jensen, J. Hans D.,
After obtaining his Ph.D. at the University of Hamburg in 1932, Jensen served on the faculties of Hamburg, the Institute of Technology in Hannover, and the University of Heidelberg.
The shell nuclear model holds that an atomic nucleus should be thought of not as a random aggregation of neutrons and protons but rather as a structure of shells, or spherical layers, of differing radii, each of which is filled with neutrons and protons.
Jensen collaborated with Mayer in writing Elementary Theory of Nuclear Shell Structure (1955).

 MARIA GOEPPERT MAYER
Jensen, working completely independently in Heidelberg, had almost simultaneously realized the importance of spin-orbit coupling for explaining the shell structure, and the result had been this joint paper.
Maria Mayer and Jensen were not acquainted with one another at the time, and they did not meet until her visit to Germany in 1950.
Her last publication, a review of the shell model written in collaboration with Jensen, appeared in 1966; and she continued to give as much attention to physics as she could until her death in early 1972.

Johannes Hans Daniel Jensen was a German physicist who proposed the shell theory of nuclear structure of protons and neutrons grouped in onion-like layers of concentric shells.
He suggested that the nucleons (protons and neutrons) spun on their own axis while they moved in an orbit within their shell and that certain patterns in the number of nucleons per shell made the nucleus more stable.
Jensen's model of the nucleus won him a share of the 1963 Nobel Prize in physics (with Maria Goeppert- Mayer, who arrived at the same hypothesis independently in the U.S.; and Eugene P. Wigner for unrelated work.) Throughout the 1950s, Jensen worked on radioactivity.

She shared the prize in physics in 1963 with J. Hans D. Jensen and Eugene Wigner.
It recognized her development of the shell model of atomic nuclei (in the late 1940s), and it came seven years after her election to the U.S. National Academy of Sciences and three years after she began her first full-time paying job, as a professor at the new campus of the University of California, San Diego.
Her teachers included Max Born, James Franck, Werner Heisenberg, and David Hilbert, and her fellow students included the future biologist Max Delbrück, physicists Paul Dirac, J. Robert Oppenheimer, Victor Weisskopf, Eugene Wigner, and John von Neumann, and the man she would marry in 1930, chemist Joseph Mayer.

updated 25-Nov-1992 ------------------------------ original by Jon J. Thaler We define time travel to mean departure from a certain place and time followed (from the traveller's point of view) by arrival at the same place at an earlier (from the sedentary observer's point of view) time.
Time travel paradoxes arise from the fact that departure occurs after arrival according to one observer and before arrival according to another.

The geophysicist J. Marvin Herndon is the proponent of a radical theory about Earth's core and its relationship to Earth's magnetic field, the shield that protects our planet's animal and plant life from the sun's radiation.
According to Herndon, at the center of Earth there is a naturally occurring nuclear‑fission reactor, five miles in diameter, that provides the energy needed to generate and sustain the geomagnetic field.

In 1935, their daughter Irene dusted off a new place on the family mantelpiece for a Nobel chemistry prize together with her husband, Frederic Joliot.
Maria Goeppert-Mayer won the 1963 physics prize with Eugene Wigner and J. Hans D. Jensen, and Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin single-handedly took the 1964 chemistry award for her work on the structures of biochemical substances.
Since then, male domination has been absolute, with no woman winning the physics and chemistry prizes.
