In 1948 having completed his experimental work Chamberlain returned to Berkeley as a member of its faculty where he Segrè and other physicists investigated proton-proton scattering. He remained in school until the start of World War II and joined the Manhattan Project in 1942 where he worked with Segrè both at Berkeley and in Los Alamos New Mexico.
