Rapports 

The      Paul      Mauser      collaborators      could      leave      notes      to      Paul      using      a      specific      document     called   Rapport.   In   the   archive,   several   of   them   from   different   collaborators   are   available.   It     is      interesting      to      note      that      most      of      these      rapports      have      been      used      by      Paul      Mauser     to      write   additional   notes   and   calculation.   This      is      quite      common      in      the      archive;      it     seems      that      Paul      was      writing      down      his         ideas         quickly         to         all      kind   of   papers available. This   is   just   an   incomplete   overview   of   the   different   types   of   documents   composing   the   Paul Mauser Private Archive.
