Z Francis William Aston 1945 ) Category ( Physicists suggest a correction Francis William Aston was born on September 1, 1877 in Harborne, Birmingham, England. He was the third of three children of William Aston and Fanny Charlotte Hollis. He went to school at the Harborne Vicarage and then Malvern College, a boarding school, in Worcestershire. Aston won the Forster Scholarship and used it to study the optical properties of tartaric acid and its derivative compounds. In 1900, he left academia to work as a chemist for W. Butler and Co. Brewery. Here he lost interest in chemistry and developed his interest in physics while designing pumps to evacuate brewing vessels. In 1903, Aston left the brewing company and returned to the University of Birmingham on a scholarship. He worked with John Henry Poynting on electronic discharge tubes. During this time he discovered what is now called the Aston Dark Space. In 1909, J. J. Thomson invited Aston to work with him at the Cavendish Laboratory at Cambridge. Thomson had discovered electrons in electronic discharge tubes and had moved on to study positive rays. Here, Aston invented the first mass spectrometer while discovering two isotopes of Neon. He used electric and magnetic fields to accelerate ions and separate them by mass and charge.

Aston The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 1922 Summary Presentation Speech Francis W. Aston ... Nobel Lecture Biography Francis William Aston was born in September 1877 at Harborne, Birmingham, England, the third of a family of seven children. He was educated at Harborne Vicarage School and Malvern College where his interest in science was aroused. In 1894 he entered Mason College, Birmingham (later to become the University of Birmingham) where he studied chemistry under Frankland and Tilden, and Physics under Poynting. His winning of the Forster Scholarship in 1898 enabled him to work on the optical properties of tartaric acid derivatives; the results of this work were published in 1901. Leaving academic life for a time, he worked for three years as a chemist in the laboratory of a brewery. At about this time, however, his interest in physics, rather than chemistry, began to predominate; his aptitude for mechanical contrivance showed itself in his design and construction of new types of pumps for evacuating vessels. From this stemmed his interest in gas discharge phenomena in evacuated tubes.

From Alchemy to Chemistry: Five Hundred Years of Rare and Interesting Books University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Rare Book Room Exhibit ASTON, FRANCIS WILLIAM (1877 - 1945). Isotopes . London, 1922. Aston's invention of the mass spectrograph, an instrument giving a concentrated and extremely detailed breakdown of the constituents of analyzed material, enabled him to discover that elements are composed of atoms of varying mass, and that the atomic weight of an element is an average of the atoms comprising it. Aston used the word "isotopes" to describe atoms of differing weights within the same element, a term first coined by Frederick Soddy to describe separate elements that are nevertheless homogeneous in chemical behavior. Aston was awarded the Nobel Prize for chemistry in 1922 "for his discovery, by means of his mass spectrograph, of the isotopes of a large number of non-radioactive elements, as well as for his discovery of the whole-number rule."
