As work proceeded at Los Alamos and elsewhere in America, Allied intelligence agencies had been following the atomic weapons projects underway in both Germany and Japan. In Japan the project was headed by Yoshio Nishina, who had studied under nuclear physicist Niels Bohr in Denmark and had set up the Riken Institute for Physical and Chemical Research in the Japanese capital of Tokyo. Nishina built two cyclotrons at the Riken Institute. Another key scientist was Ryokichi Sagane, who had studied under Emeset O. Lawrence at the University of California at Berkeley.
