	Otto Hahn
		Otto Hahn (March 8, 1879 - July 28, 1968) was a German physicist.
		Hahn was born in Frankfurt am Main and studied chemistry in Marburg and Munich.
		Together with Lise Meitner and Otto von Baeyer[?], he developed a technique to measure the beta decay spectra of radioactive isotopes, which achievement was recognised by his securing the post of professor at the newly founded Kaiser-Wilhelm-Institute for Chemistry in Berlin in 1912.

		When Otto Hahn came to him to London, famous William Ramsay had received the Nobel Prize for chemistry in 1904 for discovering the rare gases argon, helium, krypton, neon and xenon as well as for the analysis of the components of the atmospheric air.
		Hahn, who was known for having the profoundest experience in separating chemical elements, repeatedly hit upon what he supposed to be artificial "radium", which could not be separated from barium that was attached to it.
		Hahn appeared to be exceptionally well-suited to that post because of his scientific esteem at home and abroad, his political impeccability, his position as the oldest scientific member of that society as well as his pleasant personality.

	Otto Hahn, Lise Meitner, and Fritz Strassmann
		In 1938 Otto Hahn (1879–1968), Lise Meitner (1878–1968), and Fritz Strassmann (1902–1980) were the first to recognize that the uranium atom, when bombarded by neutrons, actually split.
		In 1912 their research group was relocated to the new Kaiser Wilhelm Gesellschaft, where Fritz Haber was head of the physical chemistry institute, Hahn was head of the radioactivity institute, and from 1918 Meitner was head of the radioactivity institute's physics department.
		At the end of the war Hahn was astonished to hear that he had won the Nobel Prize for chemistry in 1944 and that nuclear bombs had been developed from his basic discovery.

	Otto Hahn. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		Otto Hahn was the chemist whose discovery of nuclear fission ultimately led to the ending of WW II by the terrible drop of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945.
		The story of Hahn's discovery began in 1938 with a report by Irène Joliot-Curie that bombarding uranium with neutrons had resulted in the production of a radionuclide of thorium, which they later speculated was a transuranium element similar to lanthanum.
		When they published their results (Jan. 6, 1939) Hahn and Strassmann noted that such a thing was "in opposition to all the phenomena observed up to the present in nuclear physics." Hahn, conscious of the fact that as a chemist he was trading in the domain of physics, did not offer an explanation.

		Hahn was one of four children born to a professional glazier, and was initially attracted to organic chemistry in college, taking his doctorate at Marburg University in 1901 under Theodor Zincke.
		Dissuading Hahn from his intention to work in industry, in 1904 Zincke obtained a position for him as a research assistant in London with William Ramsay (1852-1916), where he isolated radiothorium, a radioactive isotope of thorium, by chemical analysis of a radioactive mineral blend.
		Another important area of research was Hahn's development of the "emanation method" to study the character of and changes in the surfaces of finely divided solution precipitates.

		On his return to Europe Hahn moved to Berlin, to the Chemical Institute (Emil Fischer) of the University and there he qualified as a university lecturer in the spring of 1907, which year also saw his discovery of mesothorium.
		Between 1914 and 1918 Hahn's work was interrupted by his service in the First World War, but he resumed his research with Professor Meitner in 1918, and discovered protactinium, the long-lived mother substance of the actinium series.
		Hahn's own particular sphere was chemistry and he further discovered uranium Z, the first case of a nuclear isomerism of radioactive kinds of atoms.

		Hahn was a German physical chemist and Nobel laureate, whose greatest contributions were in the field of radioactivity.
		In 1938, however, Hahn and Strassmann, while looking for transuranic elements in a sample of uranium that had been irradiated with neutrons, found traces of the element barium.
		It was proposed in 1970 that the newly synthesized element number 105 be named hahnium in his honor, but another naming system was adopted for transuranium elements beyond 104.
