Oral histories at the Niels Bohr Library and Archives

Interview transcripts are made available of several hundred tape-recorded interviews conducted by the staff of the American Institute of Physics Center for History of Physics and other historians with physicists, astronomers and others. Selected voice clips are also available online. The Niels Bohr Library and Archives of the American Institute of Physics holds the recordings of more than 1000 of these interviews and the transcripts for most of them are available in the Library. The main subject areas are quantum physics, nuclear physics, modern astrophysics and astronomy, solid state physics, laser science, multi-institutional collaborations in high-energy physics, space science and geophysics, physicists in industry, science education, science societies and institutions, and science and society.
