Branch of Science Physicists Nationality Dutch ... Physics Prize Lorentz, Hendrik Antoon (1853-1928) Dutch physicist who was converted from Helmholtz's electromagnetic theory by Hertz's experiments, which he felt were "the greatest triumph that Maxwell's theory has achieved." Using the Maxwellian framework, he proposed a universal theory of physics based purely on the concepts of electromagnetism The fundamental postulates, which were completely independent of mechanical principles, were presented in Inquiry into a Theory of Electrical and Optical Phenomena in Moving Bodies , Leiden 1895). Independently of Fitzgerald , Lorentz he suggested the null result of the Michelson-Morley experiment resulted from a contraction of the arms of the interferometer in the direction of the Earth's motion.

Nobel Lecture Biography Hendrik Antoon Lorentz was born at Arnhem, The Netherlands, on July 18, 1853, as the son of nursery-owner Gerrit Frederik Lorentz and his wife From the start of his scientific work, Lorentz took it as his task to extend James Clerk Maxwell's theory of electricity and of light. Already in his doctor's thesis, he treated the reflection and refraction phenomena of light from this standpoint which was then quite new. His fundamental work in the fields of optics and electricity has revolutionized contemporary conceptions of the nature of matter. In 1878, he published an essay on the relation between the velocity of light in a medium and the density and composition thereof. The resulting formula, proposed almost simultaneously by the Danish physicist Lorenz, has become known as the Lorenz-Lorentz formula.

One moment please .. RENT IT NOW SUMMARY In the spring of 1906, Nobel laureate H.A. Lorentz gave a famous series of lectures at Columbia University. Gathered in one volume and published as The Theory of Electrons in 1909, these talks are still widely read and admired today, more than 100 years later. This collection includes lectures on: . the theory of free electrons . the emission and absorption of heat . the theory of the Zeeman-effect . the propagation of light in a body composed of molecules . the theory of the inverse Zeeman-effect . the optical phenomena in moving bodies Extensive notes, complete with mathematical equations, complement the text, and an extensive index will aid the reader. Dutch physicist HENDRIK ANTOON LORENTZ (1853-1928) shared the Nobel Prize in physics with Pieter Zeeman in 1902. His publications include The Einstein Theory of Relativity: A Concise Statement (1920), Lectures on Theoretical Physics (1927), and Problems of Modern Physics (1927).
