Abstract:
Why were the two classical papers by A.F. Huxley and R. Niedergerke and by H.E. Huxley and J. Hanson on the sliding filament concept in muscle contraction published in the same issue (May 22, 1954) of Nature? This historical survey reveals the background of the two groups' monumental work.
