Neither Professor Harteck nor Dr. Groth had received any reply from the War Office to their letter at the end of April, drawing attention to the possibilities of nuclear explosives, but the authorities had not been idle. The letter had been passed to General Becker’s Army Ordnance Department, and thence to the research branch under Professor Erich Schumann. Schumann in turn forwarded it to Dr. Kurt Diebner, the Army’s expert on nuclear physics and explosives, and another key figure in this history.
Nuclear physicists present, but not Schumann. Fixing a program. Esau telephoned, going to call on me. )” That Professor Schumann was in fact absent from the conference was itself illuminative; a descendant of the composer Schumann, he was himself no mean composer of military music and had grown rich on the royalties of marches he had composed. But apart from the similarity of the pronunciation of Physik and Musik a rhyme of which his enemies made much in private his contact with physics had been slight.
An enraged Professor Esau wrote that same day to General Becker* protesting that the problem had “only emerged since January this year,” so Mentzel’s claim was ludicrous. Esau stressed that it was not a question of one body or another controlling the project; what was vital was for it to be a cooperative effort. The initiative to procure and analyze the necessary uranium had been his alone. The “brutal takeover” of his experimental project by the War Office had, he suggested, done grave damage to the physics sections of the Reich Research Council (of which Mentzel himself was director) and to Esau’s reputation as head of the physics section.
