Item Description U/M Price Item# Chart - Laminated - Solar Spectrum This hansome wall chart, covering the visible portion of the solar spectrum, shows the location of the more prominent Fraunhofer lines. These darklines, some narrow and some wide, are caused by the absorption of specific frequencies within the atmosphere of the earth or sun. Both colorful and informative, this chart makes an excellant teaching aid for any science classroom. This durable chart (seen above) is printed on heavy paper stock and is fitted with metal binding strips at top and bottom. The upper strip includes tabes suitable for wall haning. Chart dimention is 71cm x 28cm. each Chart - Laminated - Spectrum Analysis This chart shows the visible continuous spectrum of the sun and the emission or bright line spectra of ten relatively common elements. It provides an excellant beginning point to show the student the total individuality of the spectrum of each element. It also presents an opportunity to discuss the general relationship between the number of lines and the number of atomic shell electrons.

Rayleigh and Ramsay
Sir William Ramsay (1852-1916) and Lord Rayleigh (born John William Strutt, 1842-1919) published their discovery of argon in 1895. In terms of the periodic table, the discovery was significant. It presented scientists with a new element for which there was no place in the periodic table. But it also suggested that there should be a family of such elements, and led to the discovery of other noble gases. Ramsay and Rayleigh were both awarded Nobel Prizes in 1904. Rayleigh was awarded the physics prize for discovery of argon. Ramsay was awarded the chemistry prize for argon and the family of noble gases. Read this illustrated biography of Rayleigh

John William Strutt 's father was the second Baron Rayleigh of Terling Place, Witham in the county of Essex. Certainly it was a family with little previous interests in science for they were mostly landowners with interests in the countryside. One exception was Robert Boyle , who was a distant relation. Let us say at the beginning of this article that we shall refer to Strutt as Rayleigh throughout this article although he did not succeed to the title until he was 30 years old. As a boy Rayleigh suffered from poor health and his schooling at both Eton and Harrow was disrupted. He had to leave both schools after a short period due to health problems. Four years spent at the Reverend Warner's boarding school, prepared Rayleigh for university and at this stage he did begin to show signs of mathematical ability. During these four years he had a private tutor but overall he showed little sign of being anything other than an average child of average ability. He entered Trinity College, Cambridge in October 1861 where he took the mathematical Tripos. His coach at Cambridge was Edward

Lord Rayleigh (John William Strutt)
Lord Rayleigh was a British physicist and mathematician who worked in many disciplines including electromagnetics, physical optics, and sound wave theory. The criteria he defined still act as the limits of resolution of a diffraction-limited optical instrument. Rayleigh wrote over 446 scientific papers, but is perhaps best known for his discovery of the inert gas argon, which earned him a Nobel Prize. Born John William Strutt, Rayleigh inherited his title when his father died in 1873. Although he was to become the third Baron of Rayleigh, as a young child he was slow to show eminence. He was the eldest of seven children and was almost three years old before he began speaking. Rayleigh's childhood and early education at Eton and Harrow were frequently disrupted by poor health. Hailing from a long line of landowners, Rayleigh was not raised in a scientific family and his predilection for the field was unexpected. At Cambridge University, however, Rayleigh exhibited strong promise in mathematics and an avocation for photography. He became the top member of his class under the tutelage of Edward Routh, a famous applied mathematician, and then a fellow at Trinity College in 1866. During his undergraduate years, Rayleigh was heavily influenced and inspired by George Stokes, who was a Lucasian professor of mathematics. After graduation, Rayleigh married the sister of the future Prime Minister, Lord Arthur Balfour, and together they had three sons, the eldest of which would eventually follow his father's scientific path.
