Meitner was forced to flee to Sweden to escape the Nazi Regime in Germany, so she did not physically take part in the chemical experiments that proved nuclear fission. However, she did theorize what would happen and give direction to Hahn through letters, and also applied many existing equations and theories to explain nuclear fission from a physics standpoint.

Alongside Otto Hahn, Meitner discovered then developed radioactive recoil, a physical separation method between radioactive atoms. She also discovered the cause of the emission of electrons from surfaces of atoms with 'signature' energies, which was later named the Auger Effect, named after a physicist who discovered the same effect later.

Niels Bohr was a longtime mentor and collaborator of Meitner. Bohr also aided in Meitner's escape from Hitler's regime and helped situate her with her nephew Otto in Sweden. Bohr also gave incredible insights into the arrangement of electrons outside of nuclei in his career.

At the University of Vienna, Meitner studied physics under Boltzmann on her way to getting her doctorate. Meitner's nephew Otto highly praised Boltzmann, claiming that "Boltzmann gave her the vision of physics as a battle for ultimate truth, a vision she never lost."

Discovered X-ray Crystallography, also mentored by Planck and a friend of Meitner. Won the 1914 Nobel Prize in Physics

Nephew of Meitner, worked with her in developing the term "fission" and was a frequent collaborator of her's. Also worked on the Manhattan Project at Los Alamos

Regarded as the father of Quantum Theory, Meitner attended his lectures before becoming his assistant.

Longtime collaborator and partner of Meitner, they made most of their scientific discoveries as a team. However, Hahn took full credit for the discovery of Nuclear Fission when Meitner made key insights into it's discovery.

Studied with Meitner under Max Planck, later convinced President Roosevelt to create the Manhattan Project in fear that the Germans would create an atomic bomb with Meitner's findings.
