Emilio Segre Visual Archives

A collection of more than 25,000 historical photographs, slides, lithographs, engravings, and other visual materials, the Emilio Segre Visual Archives focuses on American physicists and astronomers of the twentieth century, but includes many scientists in Europe and elsewhere, in other fields related to physics, and in earlier times. The collection is named in honor of Emilio Segre best known for his Nobel Prize-winning work in nuclear and high-energy physics, but also an avid photographer and author of books on the history of modern physics. The Visual Archives is part of the Niels Bohr Library of the Center for History of Physics at the American Institute of Physics.
