Description

Bruno Pontecorvo's research was classified twice - in Chalk River in 1945 and in Dubna between 1950 and 1955. I review two particular physics contributions whose significance has been obscured or misconstrued due to being classified. They shed interesting light on two of Bruno's contributions to our field.
