AB 6
1939-1981
This series contains files and reports concerning all aspects of atomic energy research carried out at Harwell, including research and development, buildings and works, senior management papers, contracts and stores, finance and accounts, general administration, health and safety, personnel and establishment, research reactors and reactor development, and scientific and technical administration. The series also includes some files relating to the Wantage Research Laboratory, the Radiochemical Centre, Amersham and Culham Laboratory, and papers relating to the Atomic Energy Establishment, Winfrith for the period that it was run as an offshoot of Harwell.
During the first year of operation most documents were issued in the form of committee papers. A list of reports is included in AB 6/195. Each division was given an identifying prefix number for use on correspondence and the list has been grouped under this number sequence with unregistered files at the end of their appropriate groups.
The list has been arranged so that the unregistered files and those numbered with a personal reference are grouped with the registered files of the originating Division. All items from piece number 228 onwards are files.
This list covers a number of transfers. The pieces are listed in the order indicated above within each transfer. Related files (ie parts) may be found in earlier or later transfers.
