Seth Neddermeyer
Seth Neddermeyer was a physicist who worked in the Manhattan Project. He had been Carl D. Anderson's student at Caltech. In 1937, he helped discover muons using cloud chamber measurements of cosmic rays. He came up with the idea of developing an implosion technique for the atomic explosives used in the atomic bomb (such as that used in the Trinity test and the Fat Man bomb). Due to disagreements within the project however, he was replaced by George Kistiakowsky. In 1982, he was awarded with the Enrico Fermi award.
