Geschichten aus der GeschichteGAG493: Kernspaltung und Schwerwasser-SabotageEine Geschichte über Kernforschung vor und während des Zweiten Weltkriegs
Lange Zeit glaubten Forschende nicht daran, dass sich Atomkerne spalten lassen – bis Otto Hahn im Dezember 1938 in Berlin Uran mit Neutronen beschoss und Barium nachweisen konnte. Damit wurde – nicht nur für die Physik – ein neues Zeitalter eingeläutet: Das Atomzeitalter.
Wir sprechen in der Folge über die Entdeckung der Kernspaltung und den Wettlauf der Kernforschung während des Zweiten Weltkriegs. Und vor allem über die Anstrengungen der Alliierten, die verhindern wollten, dass schweres Wasser (Deuterium) in die Hände der deutschen Kernphysiker fällt: die norwegische Sch...2025-03-0550 min
Odin & AesopThe Winter FortressNAZI scientists relied on heavy water to produce the right uranium isotope for an atomic weapon. They produced most of their heavy water at a hydroelectric in occupied Norway called Vemork. In February 1943, a small group of Norwegian commandos slipped into Vemork, blew it up, and made their escape. This is after months of reconnaissance and preparation in the frozen wilderness. Neal Bascomb tells the story in “The Winter Fortress.” 2024-11-111h 43
