Otto Hahn and the Farm Hall Internment

At the end of WW2, Otto Hahn along with Werner Heisenberg and eight other German scientists were brought to Farm Hall in England by the Allies and detained for six months. Prior to this, Hahn had had a successful career investigating radioactive isotopes of heavy elements and made several important discoveries with his coworker Lise Meitner, including that of nuclear fission. At Farm Hall, conversations of the detainees were listened into and transcripts are available. Quotes given here were from Operation Epsilon: The Farm Hall Transcripts, introduced by Sir Charles Frank, IOP Publishing Ltd, 1993. The first two verses of the Farm Hall Song were translated from the original and slightly adapted.
