Catalogue of Gaskell's personal library sold to Keio University, Tokyo dated 1986 with photographs of the Gaskell Collection in Keio University dated 1997 and a list of books by William Mason given to King's College Library in 1957.

This series contains materials related to publications and presentations developed from Sir Anthony's research. These include theses and publications by Sir Anthony and researchers in his laboratories, review papers, book contributions, and illustrations for publications and presentations.

A group of papers relating to the history of the Bell family.

This series has been organized into five subgroups: Collaboration with Helmut Hasse (E.1-15), Titled and untitled drafts (E.16-83), Miscellaneous notes and calculations (E.84-102), Notes on work by others (E.103-126), and Work by others (E.127-135).

Many of the drafts in Titled and untitled drafts were probably intended to form lectures or papers for publication, while others may be no more than extensive notes. A number of these are untitled and very few are dated.

The Notes on work by others falls into two parts: notes made by Davenport at lectures given by others (E.103-E.117) and notes made by him on a particular publication, or line of work, of another (E.118-E.126) Although in many cases Davenport gave the date of publication of the work, few of these notes are themselves dated. Therefore they have been arranged in alphabetical order, with the exception of E.125-126, where the contents of one of Davenport's own folders have been kept together.

Of special interest in the last subgroup Work by others is E.131, a selection and discussion of research problems by J. E. Littlewood, and Davenport's comments on them. This subgroup has been arranged in alphabetical order.

Notebooks, papers and correspondence documenting the bulk of Synge's research work. The material is presented as follows:

E/1-E/48: Notebooks, 1936-1933. The notebooks document Synge's research from postgraduate studies in the mid 1930s, through work for the Wool Industries Research Association in Leeds, Lister Institute of Preventive Medicine, Rowett Research Institute and Food Research Institute, to post-retirement work in the 1990s on electronic storage of chemical information. The bulk of the notebooks are a sequence I-XXVII running from 1938 to c 1979. There are also notebooks used for references from searches of the Science Citation Index. At E/43-E/48 are notebooks used by three collaborators: J.C. Wood (1952-1954); M.A. Youngson (1958-1962); and S. Matai (1968-1969).

E/49-E/101: Research notes, 1938-1987. The material includes: reports on work on proteins for the Wool Industries Research Association (E/49-E/59, 1938-1943); wartime work on grass protein (E/60-E/63, 1939-1943) and gramicidin (E/67, 1944-1946); studies on the nutritive value of by-products of the herring industry (E/75-E80, 1949-1951); papers relating to computer searching for chemical information (E/89-E/94,1981).

All but three of Sraffa's diaries are appointment diaries and the information they contain is brief. Items B53 to B55 are journals of trips abroad

A chronological sequence of papers relating to Hodgkin's public and academic lectures, and other speeches and addresses delivered at various occasions.

This series contains material relating to Frisch's academic visits and conferences, varying in content from brief notices or programmes to substantial folders including correspondence on scientific matters, arrangements for lectures, publications, and travel, as well as visits to friends. The material is arranged in chronological order; however, the supplemental papers given by Ulla Frisch, E.64-82, are in a second chronological order. E.64-E.76 consist of papers relating to the Commemoration Meeting for Niels Bohr, Copenhagen, 8-13 July 1963. E.78 - E.82 consist of papers relating to the symposium on the history of nuclear physics, University of Minnesota, 18-21 May 1977.

The material is very slight and in consequence does not represent the full extent of Thomson's involvement with British and overseas societies and organisations. The best documented body is the Committee on Science in the Educational System of Great Britain, of which Thomson was Chairman.

The material is divided as follows:

E.1 - E.70 Notes, drafts and calculations, 1946-59

E.71 - E.87 Patent applications relating to thermonuclear energy, 1946-59

E.88 - E.90 Correspondence and papers, 1946-52

E.91 - E.105 Minutes of meetings, 1952-63

E.106-E.111 Correspondence, 1958-63

E.112-E.143 Research reports and lectures by others

E.144, E.145 Miscellaneous other material

The survival of Thomson's research notes and drafts for this period (E.1 - E.70) is particularly interesting in view of the secrecy restrictions which allowed him to publish so little (but see F.114, F.115), although some of his drafts were reproduced for limited circulation as Harwell research reports (see, e.g., E.34, E.35).

Four bound volumes of offprints of Thomson's papers, 1876-1935, with other material relating to publications, including photocopies of three articles sent to G. P. Thomson by P. Spitzer in 1970.

The majority of this archive consists of letters by Duff to members of his family, viz.: (A): to his wife Laura, 45 letters, 1897-1909; (B): to his son Alan, 356 letters, 1909-1933; (C): to his son Patrick, 96 letters, 1909-1934; (D): to his son James, 4 letters, 1909-1916; (E): to his daughter Hester, 8 letters, 1933-1934; (F): to his daughter Mary, 1 letter, 1911.

There are also 68 letters (G) from Laura Duff to her son Alan, 1915-1940, and three (H) to her husband J.D. Duff, relating to their son James's entrance examinations for Wellington College in 1910. J, K and L are letters written by their sons: 3 letters and a postcard from Alan Duff to his mother, 1909-1920 (J), a letter from James Duff to Alan Duff, 1911 (K), and a letter from Patrick Duff to J. F. Duff, relating to J. F. Duff winning a scholarship to Trinity in 1916 (L).

The final group of letters (M) are by various authors: one from J. D. Duff to Diana Frances Crawley, future wife of his son Alan, on the death of her father, 1933; letters to A. C. Duff from W. G. Collett (1911) and R. Moore (1913) at Wellington College; letter to J. D. Duff from G. M. Trevelyan, 1934 about Edward Fitzgerald's letters; letter to Laura Duff from the Postmaster at Cambridge, 1923, relating to a telegram from Cairo.

Miscellaneous material (N) comprises: copy of the marriage certificate of James Duff Duff and Laura Lenox-Coningham, 1895; page torn from a notebook with short phrase in Ancient Greek; memoir, "Lemnos" of an army camp, probably by A. C. Duff, with envelope addressed to J. D. Duff.

Finally there are twenty eight of J. D. Duff's pocket diaries (usually by Lett's) dating from 1888-1912, 1915-1918, 1922-1926, and 1931-1934; the earliest are kept as appointment books, with brief notes of college and social occasions, but Duff's entries later expand to be fuller records of his days, typically recording weather, reading material, pastimes and family news. A notebook with A. C. Duff's name and address at the front contains 'Extracts from F[ather's] Diary'.

Personal and family papers 1900-81; correspondence 1919-1976; manuscripts of publications [1920]-78; lectures c1919-76; collected publications of others c1930-1976; material relating to the Communist Party of Great Britain 1922-76.
