Description
Stefan Meyer - Director of the Radiuminstitut der Akademie der Wissenschaften in Wien – published 1937 a paper on the “age” of the sun (1).
1938 soon after this publication Stefan Meyer had to retire and quit the Membership of the Academy when the national socialists took over.
The outcome of this research was published by F.F. Koczy in 1943 in Nature (2) – thus at a time Stefan Meyer stayed in Bad Ischl escaping from the national socialist regime. This research topic will be discussed.
