Odd Dahl (1898-1994) was a self-educated Norwegian adventurer who had no scientific training but later made great contributions to research on atomic energy. He had read physics while a member of Roald Amundsen¡s expedition to the Arctic, and during the 1930s, joined the staff of the Carnegie Institution in Washington as a member of the team developing the Van de Graff generator.
