The investigations of James Clerk Maxwell ( Phil. Mag., 1856 ; Quart.

Still, Thomson's model ( along with a similar Saturnian ring model for atomic electrons, also put forward in 1904 by Nagaoka after James Clerk Maxwell's model of Saturn's rings ), were earlier harbingers of the later and more successful solar-system-like Bohr model of the atom.

The name " curl " was first suggested by James Clerk Maxwell in 1871.

This theory was originally supported by James Clerk Maxwell, who had predicted this force.

# The final piece of the puzzle, thermal transpiration, was theorized by Osborne Reynolds, but first published by James Clerk Maxwell in the last paper before his death in 1879.

Although control systems of various types date back to antiquity, a more formal analysis of the field began with a dynamics analysis of the centrifugal governor, conducted by the physicist James Clerk Maxwell in 1868 entitled On Governors.

In 1874, it was extended by the British physicists James Clerk Maxwell and William Thomson with a set of electromagnetic units.

James Clerk Maxwell played a major role in establishing modern use of dimensional analysis by distinguishing mass, length, and time as fundamental units, while referring to other units as derived.

James Clerk Maxwell first formally postulated electromagnetic waves.

Radio waves were not detected first from a natural source, but were rather produced deliberately an artificially by the German scientist Heinrich Hertz in 1887, using electrical circuits calculated to produce oscillations in the radio frequency range, following recipies suggested by the equations of James Clerk Maxwell.

James Clerk Maxwell and Thomas Huxley were special advisors on science.

Notable developments in this century include the work of Georg Ohm, who in 1827 quantified the relationship between the electric current and potential difference in a conductor, Michael Faraday, the discoverer of electromagnetic induction in 1831, and James Clerk Maxwell, who in 1873 published a unified theory of electricity and magnetism in his treatise Electricity and Magnetism.

This view changed, however, with the publication of James Clerk Maxwell's 1873 Treatise on Electricity and Magnetism in which the interactions of positive and negative charges were shown to be regulated by one force.

James Clerk Maxwell

This unification, which was observed by Michael Faraday, extended by James Clerk Maxwell, and partially reformulated by Oliver Heaviside and Heinrich Hertz, is one of the key accomplishments of 19th century mathematical physics.

A theory of electromagnetism, known as classical electromagnetism, was developed by various physicists over the course of the 19th century, culminating in the work of James Clerk Maxwell, who unified the preceding developments into a single theory and discovered the electromagnetic nature of light.

Electricity and magnetism ( and light ) were definitively linked by James Clerk Maxwell, in particular in his " On Physical Lines of Force " in 1861 and 1862.

Electromagnetic waves were analysed theoretically by James Clerk Maxwell in 1864.

James Clerk Maxwell, the founder of the modern theory of electromagnetism, was born here and educated at the Edinburgh Academy and University of Edinburgh, as was the engineer and telephone pioneer Alexander Graham Bell.

James Clerk Maxwell was the first to obtain this relationship by his completion of Maxwell's equations with the addition of a displacement current term to Ampere's Circuital law.

While the Scottish Enlightenment is traditionally considered to have concluded toward the end of the 18th century, disproportionately large Scottish contributions to British science and letters continued for another 50 years or more, thanks to such figures as the mathematicians and physicists James Clerk Maxwell, Lord Kelvin, and the engineers and inventors James Watt and William Murdoch, whose work was critical to the technological developments of the Industrial Revolution throughout Britain.

* 1831 – James Clerk Maxwell, Scottish physicist ( d. 1879 )

While his farming activities continued, in 1764 he went on a geological tour of the north of Scotland with George Maxwell-Clerk, ancestor of the famous James Clerk Maxwell.

) His own scientific research continued and he corresponded with James Clerk Maxwell at Cambridge University.

He was the second Cavendish Professor of Physics at the University of Cambridge ( following James Clerk Maxwell ), from 1879 to 1884.

Meanwhile, James Clerk Maxwell was working on Faraday's lines of force.

Faculty and alumni of Rochester make up nearly one-quarter of the scientists on the board advising NASA in the development of the James Webb Space Telescope, which will replace the Hubble Space Telescope as of 2011.

Observations from the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope in 1997 revealed an " elongated bright central region " that peaked at 9 ″ ( 70 AU ) to the northeast of Vega.

* 1. 5 Gm — ( proposed ) Expected orbit from Earth of the James Webb Space Telescope

* The James Webb Space Telescope ( JWST ) is likely to be launched no earlier than 2018.

The far-infrared extends to submillimeter wavelengths, which are observed by telescopes such as the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope at Mauna Kea Observatory.

The inclinations and hence true masses for almost all the exoplanets will eventually be measured by the number of observatories in space, including the Gaia mission, Space Interferometry Mission, and James Webb Space Telescope.

* Submillimetre Common-User Bolometer Array, an instrument used on the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope

The forthcoming James Webb Space Telescope will contain both a near-infrared spectrograph ( NIRSpec ) and a mid-infrared spectrometer ( MIRI ).

Notable examples of bolometers employed in submillimeter astronomy include the Herschel Space Observatory, the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope, and the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy ( SOFIA ).

Preliminary work has started on a Hubble successor, the James Webb Space Telescope ( JWST ); this will be the largest primary mirror ever assembled in space.

It is now expected that the Hubble will remain operational until its successor, the James Webb Space Telescope ( JWST ), is available in 2014-15.

* The James Webb Space Telescope ( in development )

Observations with the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope at a wavelength of 850 μm show an extended flux of radiation out to an angular radius of 35 arcseconds around the star.

The Earth's atmosphere is opaque over most of the far-infrared, so that ground-based observations are limited to submillimetre wavelengths using high-altitude telescopes such as the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope, the Caltech Submillimeter Observatory, and the Submillimeter Array.

The Space Telescope Science Institute ( STScI ) is the science operations center for the Hubble Space Telescope ( HST ; in orbit since 1990 ) and for the James Webb Space Telescope ( JWST ; scheduled to be launched in 2018 ).

The March 1946 Sky and Telescope article " Once in a Blue Moon " by James Hugh Pruett misinterpreted the 1937 Maine Farmers ' Almanac.

Particularly noteworthy operations include: the James Webb Space Telescope which will try to study the history of the universe and Aquarius will measure the water ’ s salinity in order to better understand the global cycling of water.
