Aus Paulis letztem Lebensjahrzehnt sind uber 2000 Briefe erhalten und in diesem grundlegenden Werk zur Physikgeschichte der Nachkriegszeit zusammengefabt. Neben der Physik wird hier auch der allgemeinere geistesgeschichtliche Hintergrund unserer Naturwissenschaft beleuchtet. Dieser Teilband enthalt wissenschaftliche Korrespondez uber grundlegende und andere allgemeine Fragen der Physik der Jahre 1955-1956. In diese Zeit fallen der Beginn der axiomatischen Feldtheorie, die Anfange von CERN, der Berner Relativitatskongress zur 50-Jahr-Feier von Einsteins Entdeckung sowie N. Bohrs 70. Geburtstag und naturlich die fruhe Geschichte des Neutrinos. Pauli und seine Briefpartner nehmen aktiv an diesen Ereignissen teil und beleuchten sie in eindrucksvoller Weise in ihrer Korrespondenz. Die reich annotierten und kommentierten Briefe sind chronologisch angeordnet und durch Verzeichnisse und Register erschlossen. From the final decade of Pauli’s life, nearly 2000 letters survive. These are collected in this fundamental work on the history of physics in the post-war era. Going beyond physics, these letters also shed light on the cultural and philosophical background of our natural sciences.This part of the collection contains scientific correspondence about fundamental and other general questions concerning physics in the years 1955-1956. This period saw the beginnings of axiomatic field theories, the birth of CERN, the Berner Relativity Congress marking the 50th Anniversary of Einstein’s discovery, and N. Bohr’s 70th birthday. They were also the formative years of neutrino physics. Pauli and his correspondence partners played an active role in these events and illuminate them in an impressive manner in their letters. The extensively annotated and commented letters are organized chronologically and complemented by indexes and references.
