PS Auditorium (CERN)

Ten years after the first chain reaction, many of the participants gathered in the same room to film a program for television. Enrico Fermi, Arthur Compton and others describe the experiment in a discussion which covers many aspects of this project. Some other details of the reactor will also be described from a more modern perspective.
