KÄRNFYSIK vetenskapsakademiens forskningsinstitut för fysik. Well what drew me to find it very interesting was that all the enclosed stuff felt deliberately placed. So of all the books in my collection this felt like I could feel the intention of the previous owner, pointing and marking, exploring the lore and such.

Yea, you most likely stumbled on a book owned by one of the scientists working on Sweden's program back in the day. I'm curious what was highlighted about Italy, and what the calculations were.

  Here's a link with all the images. I remember the details that I forgot and now rediscover again lol. There's another article relating to Otto Hahn or something as well as Lise Meitner. The calculations are of alpha-whatnow, page where they were laid also photographed. Also more photos of intro and content outline. Other than scanning the whole book that's all the insider info I got lol. So what's cool is that it is literally a book by the mentioned nobel laureate. Last article from the nineties, I guess the book has been stored since then. And for some reason this main thread is still being treated like persona non grata due to a bad initial condition. https://postimg.cc/gallery/9DL8Z5J https://postimg.cc/gallery/9DL8Z5J

    It seems like it was owned by someone who was probably a student of Meitner's. The stuff underlined about Italian denuclearization are specifically about Fermi, who was a peer of her's. I'd definetly recommend contacting a Science Historian. You might have a pretty cool piece of actual Swedish history.

      Thanks. Yeah I had thought of auctions and profit but you're right maybe I should contact someone.

        I think the book might have been Rolf Persson's [0] [0] - https://sv.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolf_Persson_(k%C3%A4rnfysiker) https://sv.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolf_Persson_(k%C3%A4rnfysik...

        It's very cool that you went and found that possibility. The poem mentions R3 which is the Ågesta reactor. The poem was also written by someone named Rolf. The Rolf in the wikipedia you linked worked on both R3 (Ågesta) and R1 at KTH (where he was educated. This could be reasonable. Accepting that lastname changes are common throughout life, what made you deduce it was this Rolf?

        As far as I can see it's just lecture notes from an introductory course in nuclear physics, complete with a disclaimer about the elementary level.
