It took nearly 10 years before a general acceptance of the origin of meteorites was achieved through the work of the French scientist Jean-Baptiste Biot and the British chemist, Edward Howard.

Several other experiments followed, with André-Marie Ampère, who in 1820 discovered that the magnetic field circulating in a closed-path was related to the current flowing through the perimeter of the path ; Carl Friedrich Gauss ; Jean-Baptiste Biot and Félix Savart, both of which in 1820 came up with the Biot-Savart Law giving an equation for the magnetic field from a current-carrying wire ; Michael Faraday, who in 1831 found that a time-varying magnetic flux through a loop of wire induced a voltage, and others finding further links between magnetism and electricity.

He now became acquainted with Pierre-Simon Laplace, and through his influence was commissioned, with Jean-Baptiste Biot, to complete the meridian arc measurements which had been begun by J.

Jean-Baptiste Biot ( 21 April 1774 – 3 February 1862 ) was a French physicist, astronomer, and mathematician who established the reality of meteorites, made an early balloon flight, and studied the polarization of light.

Jean-Baptiste Biot was born in Paris, France on 21 April 1774 and died in Paris on 3 February 1862.

In 1804 Biot was on board for the first scientific hot-air balloon ride with Gay-Lussac ( NNDB 2009, O ’ Connor and Robertson 1997 ).

Biot was also a member of the Legion of Honor ; he was elected chevalier in 1814 and commander in 1849.

In 1803 Biot was sent by the French Academy to report back on 3000 meteorites that fell on L ’ aigle, France.

Only after Biot was able to analyze the rocks at l ’ Aigle was it commonly accepted that the fireballs seen in the sky were meteors falling through the atmosphere.

Biot began his work on polarization to show that the results he was obtaining could appear only if light were made of corpuscles.

This phenomenon was discovered by Jean-Baptiste Biot, Augustin Fresnel, and Aimé Cotton in the first half of the 19th century.

Bonnet was elected to the Academy of Sciences in 1862 to replace Biot.

The Kryptonian technology was incorporated into the Manhunters by Hank Henshaw on Biot, which enabled them to use the Central Power Battery on Oa as a power source for the Manhunters.

The property was first observed by Jean-Baptiste Biot in 1815, and gained considerable importance in the sugar industry, analytical chemistry, and pharmaceuticals.

The Wenxian Tongkao is the first East Asian source that came to the attention of Western astronomers ; it was translated by Édouard Biot in 1843.

While Henshaw explains that he first encountered the Manhunters around the time he was imprisoned in the Source Wall by Parallax, it has yet to be revealed how the Cyborg was able to escape the Phantom Zone and take control of Biot.

Henshaw's head is then brought by a Guardian back to Oa so that they can learn of how he was able to take control of Biot, what he has learned from the Manhunters and to learn about " the 52 " ( referring to the 51 alternate Earths created during the second Crisis as well as their own reality ).

Believed dead after his battle with Hal Jordan, Ke ' Haan, along with fellow GLs Graf Toren, Laira, Kreon, Boodikka, and Tomar-Tu, was captured by the Manhunters and taken to the forbidden Sector 3601 to be used as energy cells for the planet Biot.

Savart became a professor at Collège de France in 1836 and was the co-originator of the Biot-Savart Law, along with Jean-Baptiste Biot.

The Biot – Savart law is used to compute the resultant magnetic field B at position r generated by a steady current I ( for example due to a wire ): a continual flow of charges which is constant in time and the charge neither accumulates nor depletes at any point.

The Biot – Savart law can be used in the calculation of magnetic responses even at the atomic or molecular level, e. g. chemical shieldings or magnetic susceptibilities, provided that the current density can be obtained from a quantum mechanical calculation or theory.

It is named after the French physicist Jean-Baptiste Biot ( 1774 – 1862 ), and gives a simple index of the ratio of the heat transfer resistances inside of and at the surface of a body.

He studied with Jean-Baptiste Biot at the Collège de France.

Born in Lusigny-sur-Barse, France, to Jacques ‐ Hubert Delaunay and Catherine Choiselat, Delaunay studied under Jean-Baptiste Biot at the Sorbonne.

Graft's biot torso can be disconnected at the hip and integrated into other robotic systems over which Graft has complete control, most commonly the Urban Combat Biot Walker, a ten-foot steel exoskeleton armed with lasers and claws.

Finally, Jean-Baptiste Biot and Félix Savart discovered the Biot – Savart law in 1820 which correctly predicts the magnetic field around any current-carrying wire.

Further, Ampère derived both Ampère's force law describing the force between two currents and Ampère's law which, like the Biot – Savart law, correctly described the magnetic field generated by a steady current.

Around this same time, Jean Baptiste Biot also observed the effect in liquids and gases of organic substances such as turpentine.

Arago and Biot left Paris in 1806 and began operations along the mountains of Spain.

Biot returned to Paris after they had determined the latitude of Formentera, the southernmost point to which they were to carry the survey.

Gay-Lussac and Jean-Baptiste Biot | Biot ascend in a hot air balloon, 1804.

* 1804 – He and Jean-Baptiste Biot made a hot-air balloon ascent to a height of 7016 metres ( 23, 000 feet ) in an early investigation of the Earth's atmosphere.

Jean-Baptiste Biot had a single son, Edouard Constant Biot, an engineer and Sinologist, born in 1803.

To publish it in correct form, Jean-Baptiste Biot wrote, he had to consult Stanislas Julien, the famous Sinologist, but also, especially for the translation of the most difficult part, the Kaogongji, he himself had to visit many workshops and questioned artisans and craftsmen about their methods and vocabulary in order to verify his son's work.

Jean-Baptiste Biot made many contributions to the scientific community in his lifetime – most notably in optics, magnetism, and astronomy.

The Biot-Savart Law in magnetism is named after Biot and his colleague Félix Savart for their work in 1820.

With his report, Biot helped support Ernst Florens Friedrich Chladni's argument that meteorites were debris from space, which he had published in 1794.

Biot also helped further the field of optics in 1815 with a study in polarized light.

He served in the German field artillery and nascent air force in World War I and was awarded the Iron Cross, rising to the rank of lieutenant.

He likely served as chief of the ballista ( senior officer of artillery ) in charge of doctores ballistarum ( artillery experts ) and libratores who actually operated the machines.

Light aircraft such as the Piper L-4 Cub served as artillery spotters and provided airborne reconnaissance.

His studies were interrupted in 1915 by World War I, in which he served in the infantry, artillery and air corps.

The Battalion served as an artillery unit for much of the war.

Dreyfus volunteered for military service again in 1914, at the beginning of World War I, and served despite advancing age in a range of artillery commands, first as a major and finally as a lieutenant-colonel.

His son, Pierre Dreyfus, also served in World War I as an artillery officer and was awarded the Croix de Guerre.

By now middle-aged, Dreyfus served mostly behind the lines of the Western Front, in part as commander of an artillery supply column.

Dreyfus's son, Pierre, also served throughout the entire war as an artillery officer, receiving the Croix de Guerre for his services.

Following graduation in 1936, he became an artillery officer and served in several different commands.

On the outbreak of World War I, he briefly served in the artillery of the Austro-Hungarian Army, but he had returned to film-making by 1915.

Both military engineers and artillery formed the body of this organization and served together until the office's predecessor, the Board of Ordnance was disbanded in 1855.

The Island has also served as part an aboriginal mission in the early 1900s, an artillery gun emplacement in World War II, and, more recently, a tourist resort.

* Miner Knowlton ( 1804 – 70 ), graduated from West Point in 1829, He served with the French Army as aid to Marshall Beaugand in Algeria in 1845 and with the U. S. Army in the Mexican War, an instructor of mathematics, French, artillery and cavalry tactics at West Point for 14 years, instructing many of the noted Civil War generals, including U. S. Grant.

He served in the artillery during the Battle of the Bulge ( 1945 ) and later became a Second Lieutenant in the infantry.

He served on both the western and eastern fronts, rising to the rank of lieutenant in the artillery.

His father, Fatah Muhammad, was born in Kolar, and served as a commander of 50 men in the bamboo rocket artillery ( mainly used for signalling ) in the army of the Nawab of Carnatic.

He served in France as an artillery observer with the 2nd Trench Mortar Battalion, 19th Field Artillery.

Martin served with the coastal artillery for eleven years before being medically discharged due to migraine headaches on 30 November 1931.

Constructed between 1912 and 1913, Building 2127 originally served as barracks for enlisted personnel from cavalry and field artillery units.

During the Civil War in Finland ( 1918 ), Airo served in the artillery on the White side, taking part in battles near Viipuri.

* Frances Clalin, who served in Missouri artillery during the United States Civil War.

At the close of the war, Lt. Burnside served two years on the western frontier, serving under Captain Braxton Bragg in the 3rd U. S. Artillery, a light artillery unit that had been converted to cavalry duty, protecting the Western mail routes through Nevada to California.
