I have been away in Sweden..´. The second being a 4to page, Chadwick responding to each of the three questions of his correspondent. To the last question about his most relevant work, Chadwick states `(a) The Discovery of the neutron. (b) From a purely scientific aspect, the discovery of the neutron and the elucidation of its properties; from a more general aspect, my work during the war on the development of the ''atomic bomb''.
