[KS] “Japanese nuclear research”

[Balazs Szalontai]

There is a good overview of wartime Japanese nuclear research, which cites a publication about the alleged specific role of Korea in this Japanese program:
 Wartime Nuclear Weapons Research in Germany and Japan. Author(s): Walter E. Grunden, Mark Walker, Masakatsu Yamazaki. Osiris, 2nd Series, Vol. 20 (2005), pp. 107-130. 
 Walter E. Grunden, "Hungnam and the Japanese Atomic Bomb: Recent Historiography of a Postwar Myth," Intelligence and National Security 13 (summer 1998): 32-60 
 
 
All the best,

Subject: [KS] “Japanese nuclear research”
  


At the 22nd International Congress of the History of Science Society held in Beijing in 2005, a Korean historian of science claimed to have found references to “Japanese nuclear research” in Korea during WWII in alumni records from Seoul National University. Does anyone know anything about that, the name of that Korean historian, or the name of the Seoul National University alumnus?
