Rayleigh, Lord John William Strutt
English physicist who wrote the standard treatise The Theory of Sound (1877-78), experimented in optics and microscopy, and, with William Ramsay, discovered argon. Nobel prize 1904.
Rayleigh was born in Essex and studied at Cambridge. He set up a laboratory at his home and was professor of experimental physics at Cambridge 1879-84, making the Cavendish Laboratory an important research centre.
In 1871, Rayleigh explained that the blue colour of the sky arises from the scattering of light by dust particles in the air, and was able to relate the degree of scattering to the wavelength of the light. He also made the first accurate definition of the resolving power of diffraction gratings, which led to improvements in the spectroscope. He completed in 1884 the standardization of the three basic electrical units: the ohm, ampere, and volt. His insistence on accuracy prompted the designing of more precise electrical instruments.
After leaving Cambridge, Rayleigh continued to do research in a broad range of subjects including light and sound radiation, thermodynamics, electromagnetism, and mechanics.

Rayleigh, Lord John William Strutt John William Strutt, le tiers(troisième) Baron Rayleigh, est né le 12 novembre 1842 au Bosquet Langford, Maldon, l'Essex, comme le fils de John James Strutt, le deuxième Baron et sa femme Clara Elisabeth La Touche, la fille l'aînée de Capitaine Richard Vicars, R. E. Il était un de même peu de membres de noblesse plus haute qui a gagné la gloire comme un scientifique remarquable(en suspens).
Partout dans sa petite enfance et jeune homme il avait de physique frêle; son éducation était à plusieurs reprises interrompue par la mauvaise santé et ses perspectives d'atteindre la maturité ont apparu précaires. Après un charme(période) court à Eton à l'âge 10, principalement dépensé(passé) dans le sanatorium scolaire, trois ans à une école privée à Wimbledon et un autre séjour court à la Herse, il a finalement dépensé(passé) quatre ans avec le curé George Townsend Warner (1857) qui a pris des élèves à Torquay.
En 1861 il est entré au collège(à Université) de Trinité, le Cambridge, où il a commencé des mathématiques lisantes, pas à premier égal dans des pratiques au mieux de ses contemporains, mais ses capacités exceptionnelles lui ont bientôt permis de rattraper ses concurrents. Il a obtenu un diplôme dans Tripos Mathématique en 1865 comme le Querelleur Senior et le Décoré du Forgeron. En 1866 il a obtenu une camaraderie à la Trinité qu'il s'est tenue jusqu'à 1871, l'année de son mariage.

Marconi, the 'father of wireless', and founder in 1897 of the first wireless company in the world, which bore his name, died in 1937. In the same year, the Board of Marconi's company decided to build a research laboratory at Great Baddow: this is now the GEC-Marconi Research Centre. This paper considers some of the current areas of study, and draws parallels between them and the work done by Marconi and his associates during his lifetime. 'The Changing World of Avionics' , G.M.

This paper describes the important milestones in the development of avionics, related to Weapon Delivery/Navigation Systems (WDNS), which have occurred from the earliest days of aviation to the present day. A brief history of GEC Avionics helps to set into perspective the current avionic product range of the Company, which with GEC Sensors Limited, is now part of the GEC-Marconi group. Finally a look at possible future avionic systems is given. 'The Marconi Archives'

Page THEASBY, P. J. The Virtues of Virtual Reality Marconi Simulation have been producing simulators for over 27 years for the military and industrial sectors. The term `simulator' is a broad description of the application of a variety of technologies and techniques, which have synergy with emerging virtual reality systems. It is anticipated that virtual reality technologies and techniques will significantly change the face of simulation, not only providing improved training efficiency and effectiveness, but, in addition, opening up new products and new markets. EGLIN, S. J., HILL, A. G., LAZARE, F. J., and WALKER, N. P. Using Neural Networks In recent years, there has been a resurgence of interest in the subject of artificial neural networks (ANNs). Inspired by the structure of the brain, these processing systems appear to offer advantages in both computational speed and capability. As ANNs learn to perform the required task by being given examples of input signals, the need for a fully developed algorithmic solution to a problem is avoided, widening the range of tasks that may be tackled. Much of the popularity of neural networks has been a consequence of the ease with which good results have been achieved using `supervised' networks. However, a second class of networks, employing `unsupervised' learning, offers other advantages. The paper describes experiments which illustrate some of the potential of neural networks.

http://www.physik.tu-ilmenau.de/exp2/research/Coulomb Stability/Rayleigh jets FA
Rayleigh Jets Freqently Asked Qestions
A) Application 1. This phenomenon is used in ink-jet printing and other applications, even though the jets had never actually been seen? The phenomenon is not used in ink jet printing, some ink jet printers use charged droplets and the Rayleigh instability has to be avoided here. The phenomenon is at the heart of the electrospray technique however, which uses successive Rayleigh instabilities to transfer large and highly charged biomolecules in the gas phase for mass spectrometry. This one of the key technologies in Biotech- research and was awarded the Nobel Price for Chemistry last year (John Fenn from Yale University and others). B) Science Basics 1. Could you explain in lay language what the Rayleigh limit is? If a liquid droplet is electrically charged (any sign), the charge resides on its surface. The repulsive coulomb force between the like charges tries to tear apart the droplet. This force is opposed by the surface tension that tries to keep the surface minimal, i.e. a spherical shape. Lord Rayleigh was able to perform a quantitative analysis of this situation in 1882 and he gave a formula which relates the maximum charge a droplet can bear to its surface tension and radius. 2. What did you confirm? That the drops make these jets when they become unstable?

9 January 2003 Physicists have observed a phenomenon predicted by Lord Rayleigh in 1882 for the first time. Thomas Leisner and colleagues at Ilmenau Technical University in Germany used high-speed microscopic imaging to observe the "Rayleigh jets" that are produced when a charged droplet of liquid becomes unstable and explodes (D.Duft et al. 2003 Nature 421 128). Electrified droplets are routinely used in various technological applications, including ink-jet printing and some forms of mass spectrometry. The Ilmenau group became interested in Rayleigh jets as a result of its research on thunderstorm clouds, which also contain highly charged droplets. Lord Rayleigh showed that, for a given charge, droplets are only stable when their radius exceeds the "Rayleigh limit". This limit relates the maximum charge that a droplet can bear to its surface tension and radius. Rayleigh suggested that when a charged droplet becomes unstable, it ejects a microscopic jet of liquid from each end before returning to equilibrium. Prior to the Ilmenau work, researchers believed that droplets managed to get rid of their charge without undergoing a "global" deformation of the whole droplet. Physicists have observed that highly charged droplets, which are slowly evaporating, become unstable at a certain limit and lose a large fraction of their charge but only a small fraction of their mass. It is not certain, however, that the droplets become unstable at or beyond the Rayleigh limit.

Brown, Robert
Although primarily a botanist, Brown is known to colloid science for his 1827 discovery that dispersed particles in water move about randomly, even when the water itself appears motionless. The phenomenon, explained later by others, is due to bombardments of the particles by water molecules and is known as Brownian motion.

He entered Trinity College, Cambridge in 1861, graduating in 1864. His first paper in 1865 was on Maxwell 's electromagnetic theory. He worked on propogation of sound and, while on an excursion to Egypt taken for health reasons, Strutt wrote Treatise on Sound (1870-1). In 1879 he wrote a paper on travelling waves, this theory has now developed into the theory of solitons. His theory of scattering (1871) was the first correct explanation of why the sky is blue. In 1873 he succeeded to the title of Baron Rayleigh. From 1879 to 84 he was the second Cavendish professor of experimental physics at Cambridge succeeding Maxwell . Then in 1884 he became secretary of the Royal Society. Rayleigh discovered the inert gas argon in 1895, work which earned him a Nobel Prize, in 1904.
