Kapitsa was eventually removed from his role as head of the institute he created, over his refusal to take part in the Soviet Hydrogen Bomb project. In a letter to Stalin , Kapitsa described the project's leader, Lavrenty Beria , as "like the conductor of an orchestra with the baton in hand but without a score".
