Appropriate experiments showed that this is, indeed, possible.

Instead, his chemical experiments showed barium as a product.

Working with Pierre-Simon Laplace, Lavoisier conducted experiments that showed that respiration was essentially a slow combustion of organic material using inhaled oxygen.

Until recently, it was believed that some experiments showed the existence of pentaquarks — " exotic " baryons made of four quarks and one antiquark.

Also, while elementary particles showed predictable properties in many experiments, they became highly unpredictable in certain contexts, for example, if one attempted to measure their individual trajectories through a simple physical apparatus.

Breeding experiments in Germany with poodles, coyotes, and later on with the resulting dog-coyote hybrids showed that, unlike wolfdogs, coydogs exhibit a decrease in fertility, significant communication problems, and an increase of genetic diseases after three generations of interbreeding.

Videos of rod-shaped objects moving quickly through the air were claimed by some to be alien life forms or small UFOs, but subsequent experiments showed that these rods appear in film because of an optical illusion / collusion ( especially in interlaced video recording ).

According to Karl Popper these experiments showed that the class of " hidden variables " Einstein believed in is erroneous.

In their experiments, Hershey and Chase showed that when bacteriophages, which are composed of DNA and protein, infect bacteria, their DNA enters the host bacterial cell, but most of their protein does not.

Moseley's experiments in X-ray spectroscopy showed directly from their physics that cobalt and nickel have the different atomic numbers, 27 and 28, and that they are placed in the Periodic Table correctly by Moseley's objective measurements of their atomic numbers.

Results of scientific experiments published in 1976 involving Kirlian photography of living tissue ( human finger tips ) showed that most of the variations in corona discharge streamer length, density, curvature and color can be accounted for by the moisture content on the surface of and within the living tissue.

Also, subsequent experiments as the Sagnac effect ( 1913 ) also showed that is model is untenable.

However, Hendrik Antoon Lorentz ( 1895 ) modified Fresnel's theory and showed that those experiments can be explained by a stationary aether as well:

In addition, the interference experiments of Lodge ( 1893, 1897 ) and Ludwig Zehnder ( 1895 ), aimed to show whether the aether is dragged by various, rotating masses, showed no aether drag.

1 ) between dominant and recessive phenotypes, his experiments with mixing two traits ( dihybrid cross ) showed 9: 3: 3: 1 ratios ( Fig.

It also had about the right mass, and over the next few years, more experiments showed that the pion was indeed involved in strong interactions.

The experiments showed that simple organic compounds of building blocks of proteins and other macromolecules can be formed from gases with the addition of energy.

Even after experiments showed that Einstein's equations for the photoelectric effect were accurate, resistance to the idea of photons continued, since it appeared to contradict Maxwell's equations, which were well-understood and verified.

His experiments showed very high positive results.

Richard Feynman argued that high energy experiments showed quarks are real particles: he called them partons ( since they were parts of hadrons ).

Recent research with non-linguistic experiments in languages with different grammatical properties ( e. g. languages with and without numeral classifiers or with different gender grammar systems ) showed that there are — to a certain degree — differences in human categorization due to such differences.

In his UHF experiments, he transmitted and received radio waves over short distances and showed that the properties of radio waves were consistent with Maxwell ’ s electromagnetic theory.

The double-slit experiments showed that when light is sent through a grid, a characteristic interference pattern is observed, very similar to the pattern resulting from the interference of water waves ; the wavelength of light can be computed from such patterns.

At that time, the wave model of light — specifically, the Maxwell theory of electromagnetic radiation — was well accepted among scientists, and experiments by Charles Glover Barkla showed that X-rays exhibited phenomena associated with electromagnetic waves, including transverse polarization and spectral lines akin to those observed in the visible wavelengths.

When Germain's correspondence with Gauss ceased, she took interest in a contest sponsored by the Paris Academy of Sciences concerning Ernst Chladni's experiments with vibrating metal plates.

Einstein did not respond to this or to Reich's future correspondence – Reich would write regularly reporting the results of his experiments – until Reich threatened three years later to publish their previous exchange.

During most of the 1790s, Brown developed his literary ambitions in projects that often remained incomplete ( for example the so-called " Henrietta Letters ," transcribed in the Clark biography ) and frequently used his correspondence with friends as a sort of laboratory for narrative experiments.

He returned to France where he arranged through correspondence with French Guinea's colonial governor to set up experiments at the botanical gardens in Conakry.

Their correspondence led to an invitation in 1953 for Mr. Schafer to work on experiments with mescaline and consciousness in dreams at the University Clinic of Psychiatry and Neurology in Innsbruck, Austria.

After having lost her last chance to return to her former power, Caterina spent the last years of her life dedicated to her children, in particular to her youngest son Giovanni ( her favourite and the most like her in personality and character ), her grandchildren, her " experiments " in alchemy, and her correspondence with former friends of hers.

Thomson collaborated with Joule, mainly by correspondence, Joule conducting experiments, Thomson analysing the results and suggesting further experiments.

The book ends with further correspondence written in 1960 detailing Ginsberg's experiments with yagé.

The differentiation between the East Coast and West Coast schools of jazz, the differences between the `` hard bop '' school of Rollins, and the `` cerebral '' experiments of Tristano, Konitz and Marsh, the general differences in the mores of white and Negro musicians, all had become fairly well known to certain segments of the public.

The experiments of Romagnosi and others have already been noted but no one had determined the cause-and-effect relationship between these two primary forces.

From the various experiments they conducted, the researchers found a correlation between the passage of V. cholerae through the human digestive system and an increased infectivity state.

The Martian space marine base acts as security for the Union Aerospace Corporation, a multi-planetary conglomerate, which is performing secret experiments with teleportation by creating gateways between the two moons of Mars, Phobos and Deimos.

Mariners had noticed that lightning strikes had the ability to disturb a compass needle, but the link between lightning and electricity was not confirmed until Benjamin Franklin's proposed experiments in 1752.

See Experiment for the distinction between these types of experiments or studies.

Later, in 1802, Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac published results of similar experiments, indicating a linear relationship between volume and temperature:

Three experiments reported by Krug, Davis and Glover demonstrated the advantage of delaying a 2nd reading of a text passage by one week ( distributed ) compared with no delay between readings ( massed ).

In a meta-analysis, effect sizes that represent, for example, the differences between treatment groups in a set of similar experiments, are averaged to obtain a single aggregate value representing the best estimate of the effect of treatment.

Will ), and the effect is now considered to have been definitively verified by the experiments of Pound, Rebka and Snider between 1959 and 1965.

Fick's experiments ( modeled on Graham's ) dealt with measuring the concentrations and fluxes of salt, diffusing between two reservoirs through tubes of water.

His first aerodynamic experiments, an investigation of the air resistance of surfaces, was carried out by dropping the surface to be investigated together with a measuring apparatus down a vertical cable stretched between the second level of the Eiffel Tower and the ground.

He sometimes employed experiments to further his research, at one time repeatedly weighing a caged bird, and noting its weight loss between feeding times.

Although he rejected the transcendental / metaphysical interpretation given to these phenomena outright, Braid accepted that these accounts of Oriental practices supported his view that the effects of hypnotism could be produced in solitude, without the presence of any other person ( as he had already proved to his own satisfaction with the experiments he had conducted in November 1841 ); and he saw correlations between many of the " metaphysical " Oriental practices and his own " rational " neuro-hypnotism, and totally rejected all of the fluid theories and magnetic practices of the mesmerists.

The entropy rate of English text is between 1. 0 and 1. 5 bits per letter, or as low as 0. 6 to 1. 3 bits per letter, according to estimates by Shannon based on human experiments.

In 1979, Antonov's Kirlian photography experiments generated data about the distribution of the electric field in the air gap between an object and the registering medium during corona discharge.

This observation was first made by the French chemist Joseph Proust, based on several experiments conducted between 1798 and 1804.

* The first is the theory of conformism, based on Solomon Asch conformity experiments, describing the fundamental relationship between the group of reference and the individual person.

In her book The Shock Doctrine, author and social activist Naomi Klein criticized Friedman's ideology and the principles that guided the economic restructuring that followed the military coups in countries such as Chile and Indonesia, drawing analogies between the way that Friedman proposed using the social " shock " of the coups to create an economic " blank slate " with Ewen Cameron's controversial medical experiments that used electroshock therapy to create a mental " blank slate " in patients with mental disorders.

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.

Based on these experiments, he devised criteria for establishing a causal link between a microbe and a disease and these are now known as Koch's postulates.

Starting in the late 1960s, several experiments found that the number of electron neutrinos arriving from the Sun was between one third and one half the number predicted by the Standard Solar Model.
