Gibbs's lecture notes on vector calculus were privately printed in 1881 and 1884 for the use of his students, and were later adapted by Edwin Bidwell Wilson into a textbook, Vector Analysis, published in 1901.

Gibbs's principal protégé was Edwin Bidwell Wilson, who nonetheless explained that " except in the classroom I saw very little of Gibbs.

Both at the University and within the Academy, Gibbs's principal mentor and champion appears to have been the astronomer Hubert Anson Newton, a leading authority on the subject of meteors.

From 2006 to 2012, he appeared as a recurring cast member on NCIS as Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs's mentor and former superior Mike Franks.

In an obituary published in the American Journal of Science, Gibbs's former student Henry A. Bumstead referred to Gibbs's personal character:

Harold " Hal " Williams ( born December 14, 1938 ) is an American actor, best known for his recurring role as the black cop Officer Smith (" Smitty ") on Sanford and Son, and as the patriarch Lester Jenkins, the husband of Marla Gibbs's character, on the NBC sitcom 227.

When Dutch physicist J. D. van der Waals received the 1910 Nobel Prize " for his work on the equation of state for gases and liquids " he acknowledged the great influence of Gibbs's work on that subject.

The first half of Gibbs's Elements of Vector Analysis, published in 1881, presents what is essentially the modern system of vector analysis.

Gibbs's first published work, which appeared in 1873 when he was already 34 years old, was on the geometric representation of thermodynamic quantities.

Gibbs's derivation of the phenomenological laws of thermodynamics from the statistical properties of systems with many particles was presented in his highly-influential textbook Elementary Principles in Statistical Mechanics, published in 1902, a year before his death.

He did supervise the doctoral thesis on mathematical economics written by Irving Fisher in 1891, and after Gibbs's death Fisher financed the publication of his Collected Works.

According to his student Lynde Wheeler, of the existing portraits this is the most faithful to Gibbs's kindly habitual expression.

" Gibbs's own framework for statistical mechanics was so carefully constructed that it could be carried over almost intact after the discovery that the microscopic laws of nature obey the rules of quantum mechanics, rather than the classical mechanics known to Gibbs and to his contemporaries.

Though Gibbs's research on physical optics is less well known today than his other work, it made a significant contribution to classical electromagnetism by applying Maxwell's equations to the theory of optical processes such as birefringence, dispersion, and optical activity.

When Gibbs submitted his long paper on the equilibrium of heterogeneous substances to the Academy, both Elias Loomis and Hubert Anson Newton protested that they did not understand Gibbs's work at all, but they helped to raise the money needed to pay for the typesetting of the many equations and mathematical symbols in the paper.

In his autobiography, mathematician Gian-Carlo Rota tells of casually browsing the mathematical stacks of Sterling Library and stumbling on a handwritten mailing list, attached to some of Gibbs's course notes, which listed over two hundred notable scientists of his day, including Poincaré, Hilbert, Boltzmann, and Mach.

) One may conclude that Gibbs's work was better known among the scientific elite of his day than the published material suggests.

Gibbs's most immediate and obvious influence was on physical chemistry and statistical mechanics, two disciplines which he greatly helped to found.

According to Planck, Gibbs's name " not only in America but in the whole world will ever be reckoned among the most renowned theoretical physicists of all times.

Title page of Gibbs's Elementary Principles in Statistical Mechanics, one of the founding documents of that discipline, published in 1902.

The first half of the 20th century saw the publication of two influential textbooks that soon came to be regarded as founding documents of chemical thermodynamics, both of which used and extended Gibbs's work in that field: these were Thermodynamics and the Free Energy of Chemical Processes ( 1923 ), by Gilbert N. Lewis and Merle Randall, and Modern Thermodynamics by the Methods of Willard Gibbs ( 1933 ), by Edward A. Guggenheim.

This was their first collaboration as mentor and protegé.

In 1639 the reigning duke of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, Ernest the Pious, made him his protegé.

Decimus Burton ( 30 September 1800 – 14 December 1881 ) was a prolific English architect and garden designer, A protegé of John Nash, he is particularly associated with projects in the classical style in London parks, including buildings at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew and London Zoo, and with the layout and architecture of the seaside towns of Fleetwood and St Leonards-on-Sea and of Tunbridge Wells.

" Likewise, referring to Churchill's meeting with Wingate in Quebec, Max Hastings wrote that, " Wingate proved a short-lived protegé: closer acquaintance caused Churchill to realise that he was too mad for high command.

It was in prison that Farace first met Gerrard " Jerry " Chilli Sr. Chilli had unofficially " adopted " Farace who at that point was in his late twenties as a protegé and stayed in contact when they got out of prison.

Stellman was a protegé of Arnold Genthe and produced a significant portfolio of photographs in San Francisco's Chinatown between 1906 and the beginning of World War II.

Thus the newly converted Pugin and his protegé Wardell were well placed to receive the numerous commissions which came flooding in.

White was a protegé of Girdler's at Jones & Laughlin Steel, and was appointed assistant vice president in charge of operations at Republic Steel in May 1930.

Billed as a " new kind of musical comedy ," Scarecrow in a Garden of Cucumbers, featuring Andy Warhol | Warhol protegé ( e ) Holly Woodlawn ( left ), had a midnight premiere at New York's IFC Center | Waverly Theater in March 1972.

After coming second in the group stage ( with 1-1 draws against Spain and Croatia and a 2-0 win over the Republic of Ireland ), the team dominated a goalless encounter against England won by a penalty shoot out, and then contrived a striking 2-1 defeat of Germany in which Prandelli's special protegé Mario Balotelli scored twice.

Vector calculus was developed from quaternion analysis by J. Willard Gibbs and Oliver Heaviside near the end of the 19th century, and most of the notation and terminology was established by Gibbs and Edwin Bidwell Wilson in their 1901 book, Vector Analysis.

In 1901, Josiah Willard Gibbs and Edwin Bidwell Wilson wrote: " This symbolic operator was introduced by Sir W. R. Hamilton and is now in universal employment.

Edwin Bidwell Wilson and Gilbert N. Lewis developed the concept within synthetic geometry in 1912.

Edwin Bidwell Wilson and Gilbert N. Lewis ( 1912 ) introduced a vector notation for spacetime.

Edwin Hubble's arrival at Mount Wilson, California, in 1919 coincided roughly with the completion of the Hooker Telescope, then the world's largest telescope.

Wilson telescope, Edwin Hubble was able to resolve the outer parts of some spiral nebulae as collections of individual stars and identified some Cepheid variables, thus allowing him to estimate the distance to the nebulae: they were far too distant to be part of the Milky Way.

In the Preface of Humanist Manifesto II, in 1973, the authors Paul Kurtz and Edwin H. Wilson assert that faith and knowledge are required for a hopeful vision for the future.

Thoreau also influenced naturalists like John Burroughs, John Muir, E. O. Wilson, Edwin Way Teale, Joseph Wood Krutch, B. F. Skinner, David Brower and Loren Eiseley, whom Publishers Weekly called " the modern Thoreau.

Anton de Bary invented the concept of symbiosis ; several Russian biologists promoted the idea ; Edwin Wilson mentioned it in his text The Cell ; as did Ivan Emmanuel Wallin in his Symbionticism and the origin of species ; and there was a brief mention by Julian Huxley in 1930 ; all in vain because sufficient evidence was lacking.

In 1912 Edwin B. Wilson and Gilbert N. Lewis developed an affine geometry

( Edwin P. Wilson claimed he had seen a telegram showing that Libya paid Billy Carter two million dollars.

He also published some of his early papers in the American Mathematical Society due to his contact with American mathematicians in Paris — particularly Edwin Wilson.

The original cast included Christie MacDonald as Princess Jeanne / Sylvia, Thomas Conkey as Prince Franz, Edwin Wilson as Lieutenant Karl, Frank Belcher as Petrus Von Trump, Tom McNaughton as Mikel Mikeloviz, Ethel Du Fre Houston as Dame Paula, and Hazel Kirk as Liane.

He may have been recruited by Ted Shackley, joining his Secret Team that had been involved with Edwin Wilson, Thomas Clines, Carl Jenkins, Rafael Quintero, Felix Rodriguez and Luis Posada Carriles, in the CIA “ assassination ” program.

Wilson was born in the small town of Trinity, Texas, to Charles Edwin Wilson, an accountant for a local timber company, and Wilmuth Wilson, a local florist, on June 1, 1933.

He supported the careers of many leading actors of the time such as Master Betty, his wife Elizabeth Satchell, his sister Elizabeth Whitlock, George Frederick Cooke, Harriet Pye Esten, John Edwin, Joseph Munden, Grist, Elizabeth Inchbald, Pauline Hall, Wilson, Charles Incledon, Egan.

There, they also hosted receptions on Sunday evenings which drew notable figures including P. T. Barnum, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, John Greenleaf Whittier, Horace Greeley, Bayard Taylor and his wife, Richard and Elizabeth Stoddard, Robert Dale Owen, Oliver Johnson, Mary E.
