    Echtfoto. Condition: Gut. Schwarzweissfoto von Edward Teller bildseitig mit schwarzem Stift signiert (Mehrere Exemplare von diesem Motiv vorrätig) /// Autogramm Autograph signiert signed signee /// Edward Teller, deutsch Eduard Teller, ungarisch Ede Teller (* 15. Januar 1908 in Budapest, Österreich-Ungarn; ? 9. September 2003 in Stanford, Kalifornien) war ein ungarisch-amerikanischer Physiker. Er leistete wichtige Beiträge auf den verschiedensten Gebieten der Physik. Einer breiten Öffentlichkeit wurde er als ?Vater der Wasserstoffbombe? bekannt.[1][2] Teller selbst lehnte diese Betitelung für seine Person ab.[3] Teller studierte an der Technischen Hochschule Karlsruhe und promovierte 1930 in Leipzig bei Friedrich Hund und Werner Heisenberg. Wegen seiner jüdischen Herkunft entschied er sich 1933, das nationalsozialistische Deutschland zu verlassen und nach England zu emigrieren.[4] 1935 emigrierte er in die USA. Dort wurde er sehr früh Mitarbeiter im Manhattan-Projekt, das die ersten Atombomben entwickelte. Bereits während dieser Zeit drängte er auf die zusätzliche Entwicklung fusionsbasierter Nuklearwaffen. Viele der Physiker, die mit ihm im Manhattan-Projekt gearbeitet hatten, wandten sich später gegen die Weiterentwicklung der Kernwaffentechnik und das folgende nukleare Wettrüsten mit der Sowjetunion, während Teller sich aufgrund der ?Bedrohung durch den Kommunismus? vehement dafür einsetzte. In Verhören zur Sicherheitseinstufung nach Kriegsende belastete Edward Teller Robert Oppenheimer, seinen ehemaligen Kollegen im Los Alamos National Laboratory, wodurch er in der wissenschaftlichen Gemeinschaft stark an Ansehen verlor. Er wurde allerdings weiterhin von der US-Regierung sowie den Forschern des Militärs unterstützt. Teller war einer der Mitbegründer des Kernwaffen-Forschungszentrums Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory und mehrere Jahre lang zunächst dessen Leiter, später stellvertretender Leiter. In späteren Jahren wurde Teller hauptsächlich durch kontroverse technische Ansätze bei militärischen wie auch zivilen Aufgaben bekannt, beispielsweise einen Plan zur Anlage eines künstlichen Hafens (Operation Chariot) in Alaska durch Sprengungen mittels Wasserstoffbomben. Er war ein prominenter Befürworter von Ronald Reagans Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI) und wurde später beschuldigt, die sehr schwierige Durchführbarkeit des Programms verschleiert zu haben. Sein Leben lang war Teller sowohl für seine großen wissenschaftlichen Fähigkeiten als auch für seine problematischen zwischenmenschlichen Verhaltensweisen bekannt. Er gilt als eines von mehreren Vorbildern für die Figur des Dr. Strangelove (deutsch ?Dr. Seltsam?) in Stanley Kubricks Filmsatire Dr. Seltsam oder: Wie ich lernte, die Bombe zu lieben aus dem Jahr 1964. /// Standort Wimregal Pkis-Box29-U020ua hu Gewicht in Gramm: 25.

    No Binding. Condition: Very Good. In a one-page typed letter signed to a Mrs. Ted M. Levine, Edward Teller discusses who has influenced him and the nature of greatness. He writes in part: ". . . the only one who impresses me as a great man is Governor Rockefeller. . . . one is that for many years he has painstakingly made an effort to learn facts and opinions needed for the purpose of serving his country. The other is that because of his understanding and because of his background and temperament, he is fully capable of reconciling what seems opposites and helping our nation to overcome one of its most discouraging crises."  Signed, Sincerely Yours/Edward Teller Typed on a sheet of 11" x 8 ½"  University of California, Lawrence Radiation Laboratory stationery and dated July 29, 1968.  Edward Teller (1908-2003) was a nuclear physicist and chemical engineer who worked on the Manhattan Project and founded the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. He is generally considered the "Father of the Hydrogen Bomb." He was one of the creators behind the concept design (the Teller-Ulam design) for modern nuclear weapons. Condition: Mailing fold lines, otherwise very good condition. Signed by Author(s).
