Heisenberg to Scientific Branch, United States Forces, 25 February 1947.,In a letter to Siegfried Flügge (one of the editors of the FIAT Review) Heisenberg complained that he “actually did not possess any report of all important works on the uranium machine”, pointing explicitly to the report of the Döpels and himself on the last Leipzig experiment in Spring 1942 (No. 15), the reports of Diebner et al. on their cube experiments in Gottow from 1942 to 1944, the report on the Berlin experiment of the year 1944 (B VI), and the report of Bothe and Flammersfeld on the experiment with a homogeneous mixture of uranium oxide and water (Heisenberg to Flügge, 24 April 1947; Werner Heisenberg-Archiv).
