involvement in the development of the atomic bomb may have caused some strain in their relations with Rasetti, who had refused to participate. It also made it awkward to discuss nuclear physics with their former colleagues when the new discoveries often remained classified. In the media The film director Gianni Amelio has told their story in a TV movie which became a film, I ragazzi di via Panisperna (1989). The building in Via Panisperna, lying on the Viminale hill, is today included in the complex of the Ministry of the Interior. The edifice is planned to host a centre for research and a museum of physics named after Enrico Fermi. References Further reading La scienza. Molecole, atomi, particelle. Vol. 12.
