There were many, many scientists involved in the creation of the atom bomb. From Albert Einstein, who wrote that an atomic bomb would be theoretically posssible, to Robert Oppenhemer, who was the senior scientist on the Manhattan Project, to many scientists in many places working - working at many levels - on many projects - in many places that collaboratively contributed to the Projects sucess. In addition, it took many people, who were not scientists to add their skills to the success from Vannanar Bush & General Leslie Groves on down the heirarchy. Finally, there were other countries working on the same goal, such as Nazi Germany. In short, no one person can claim credit. It was a group project and a group success.
The only two I Know are Neils Bohr and Albert Einstien
Some German scientists helped with the bombs but really it was a secret endeavor of the US only.
There weren't 6 African scientists on the Manhattan project. They were all European or American. It was rare indeed for a black man to be allowed an education in those days. It is doubtful that any got so far as to achieve a PhD in physics or chemistry. It is certain that none were part of project Manhattan. ------------- The above comment is not true - African-American scientist J. Ernest Wilkins got a PhD in 1942 and from 1944 worked on the Manhattan Project in the University of Chicago's Met Lab.
The Manhattan Project IS the codename. So no, there is not.
Manhattan Project
US Scientists in New Mexico (the Manhattan Project) and Albert Einstein had a say in it as well. he thought that you could split the atom but a huge force would happen but he thought nobody would be stupid enough to try it out.
Enrico Fermi collaborated with several prominent scientists on the Manhattan Project, including J. Robert Oppenheimer, Leo Szilard, and Eugene Wigner. Fermi played a key role in the development of the first nuclear reactor, known as Chicago Pile-1. His expertise in nuclear physics and engineering significantly contributed to the project's success in developing atomic weapons during World War II.
