folder 13 Conference snapshots: Copenhagen, Denmark in 1934 or 1937. Additional Note Photographs identified as a Copenhagen conference, 1937, by comparison of clothing and surroundings pictured in a group portrait in this collection (item 88), and to snapshots from other institutions collections located online (American Institute of Physics, Emilli Segre archive and US Dept. of Energy) for meal snapshots in which the same china pattern is seen. Comparison of meal snapshots to group portrait (item 88) indcates they were taken on the same occassion, however AIP dates their copies of the snapshots to 1934 and the group portrait to 1937. In the present Otto Stern collection, some individuals were identified on notes made at a later date. Some (or all) identifications may have been made by Dr. Karl von Meyenn.

However, this man in the front row of Copenhagen Conference portraits is identified as Rudolf Ladenburg.
