   For most of the first half of the 20th century, it was common for major physics results to be reported in German before appearing in other languages. It had been the lingua franca of the field for a while.

   I’ve read that the Mossbauer Effect was one of the last major physics discoveries where this was the case.

   The first paper about it in an English-language journal was Craig et al’s PRL in 1959.
