Robert Serber

Robert Serber was an American physicist known for his key contributions to nuclear physics, particularly in the development of the atomic bomb during World War II as part of the Manhattan Project. He is recognized for creating the "Serber Hints," a series of lectures to help scientists understand the complex principles of nuclear reactions. Beyond his wartime efforts, Serber also contributed to various fields of applied nuclear physics, including nuclear reactors and radiation therapy for cancer treatment. His work helped shape modern nuclear technology and its applications in both energy and medicine.
