"I conclude this recital of my early collaborators in Princeton with the most important on of all: Res Jost whom I had met earlier in Copenhagen. Our deep friendship . . . began in 1949 after he had arrived at the Institute for a stay that would last until 1955. During that period we published two joint papers which I DO NOT HESITATE TO CALL FUNDAMENTAL. In the first of these dealing with the quantum theory of scattering processes we elaborated a method first proposed by Max Born in 1946. Having concluded the work we searched the literature for earlier contributions to our main result. We did not find anything until we came to Born's original paper where our problem was raised - but answered incorrectly." Pais A tale of two continents p. 253.

"In the summer of 1947 on board ship returning from Copenhagen to New York I had been pacing the deck reflecting on Powell's discovery of the muon and speculating about the possibility that just as the muon appeared to be a heavy brother of the electron there might well exist heavy partners of the proton and neutron - which had not yet been seen at that time. Now here was the ! That particle I was immediately convinced had to be related to the proton-neutron very much like the muon to the electron. These visions were a consequence of my work done in 1946-47 in Copenhagen in which each 'prewar particle' appeared as the lowest mass particle of a 'particle family'. . . I had been the co-creator of the word 'lepton' to denote a member of the electron-neutrino family. In 1953 I proposed to baptize the proton-neutron and its heavier brothers the was only the first of these to be discovered. . . with the collective name 'baryon' from the Greek ßa - heavy. That word like lepton is now in the Oxford English Dictionary where even the paper is quoted in which I first introduced the term." Pais A tale of two continents p. 268. Pais Inward bound p. 514.
