P E Hodgson, Oxford University

Peter Hodgson and the Nuclear Physics Laboratory at Oxford University were early users of the Chilton Atlas. In conjunction with ACL they developed the Atlas Laboratory Nuclear Physics Programme Library which was used both by Oxford and other groups in the UK and elsewhere. Some of the much quoted programs were:

Other programs made available were an optical-model computer program by P. E. Hodgson and A. D. Hill, A. D. Hill's programs CCP1 and INCH (the vibrational routine of INCH was written by D. Edens) and JULIE.

Modifications or extensions of some of the programs were made by other groups and time was made available on the Chilton Atlas to check their results. For example a quote from a paper: We are grateful to Dr. P. E. Hodgson and the Atlas Computer Laboratory, Chilton, Didcot, England, for the opportunity to check our DWBA (distorted-wave Born approximation) calculations with the code of Nelson and Macefield.

Peter Hodgson was born in London in 1928 and graduated in Physics from Imperial College in 1948 and awarded his PhD in 1951. After spells at University College London and Reading University, he moved to Oxford University in 1958 and became Head of the Nuclear Physics Theoretical Group and Fellow of Corpus Christi College where he remained until his retirement. He died in 2008.
