The following is the second part of a personal diary kept by Luis W. Alvarez of the University of California while visiting Russia last year as one of fourteen physicists from the United States who were invited to attend the Moscow Conference on High‐Energy Physics, held in May 1956 by the Academy of Sciences of the USSR. Part I of his journal, covering the period May 11–19, 1956, appeared in last month's issue of Physics Today. Part II, presented below, is a continuation of the diary from Sunday, May 20, through the following Sunday, May 27, 1956, by which time the conference had ended and Alvarez had commenced his return journey home.
