He investigated the source of solar energy, which led him to make discoveries about the process of fusion. He joined the [[Manhattan Project]], where he served as the chief of the theoretical division. His expertise was in the theory of atomic nuclei having helped develop a theory of the [[deuteron]] in 1934. He also derived theory relating to nuclear reactions such that he could predict many reaction cross sections.

After World War II ended, Bethe worked with [[Edward Teller]] to help develop the [[hydrogen bomb]]. But he also helped negotiate the 1963 partial test ban treaty with the Soviet Union, and advised several Democratic presidents. Late in life Bethe advocated against the development of defensive nuclear systems.
