Abstract
WE regret to announce that the promising young Danish physicist Fritz Kalckar died suddenly from heart-failure a few weeks ago. Although only twenty-seven years of age, he was already one of the most brilliant collaborators of the Institute of Theoretical Physics, Copenhagen, and had written a number of interesting papers on various atomic problems. Only a few months before his death he published with Prof. Bohr, in the communications of the Copenhagen Academy, a paper on the recent development of the theory of nuclear reactions, which was intended as the first part of a series of papers on this subject.
