Pioneers of invisible radiation photography Authors: Prof. Robin Williams and Gigi Williams It is not generally appreciated that Professor Robert Wood (Figure 9) of Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, described by his biographer (Seabrook, 1941) as 'The modern wizard of the laboratory', was undoubtedly the father of both infrared and ultraviolet photography (Figure 10). The discovery of the radiations beyond the visible spectrum and the sensitization of emulsions capable of recording them pre-date Wood, but he holds the distinction of being the first to intentionally produce photographs with both infrared and ultraviolet radiation and also for being the first to photograph the ultraviolet fluorescence phenomenon. Figure 9 (left). Professor Robert Williams Wood. Figure 10 (left). Wood's biography. Robert Wood was an American physicist who became a professor and fulfilled various roles at Johns Hopkins University in America from 1901 until his death in 1955. He was internationally known for his work in optics and spectroscopy, in which fields he undertook fundamental research in resonance radiation and in the use of absorption screens in astronomical photography. In February 1903, Wood described the invention of a filter for ultraviolet transmission, which would exclude all visible light. The first version was made with nitroso-dimethyl-aniline but this still let through too much blue light for effective ultraviolet photography. The addition of a small amount of the dye uranine to the formula made a filter for photography, which transmitted, exclusively ultraviolet.

Extractions: Introduction Who's Who Technical essay Sources ... News American experimenter in physical optics and unsung pioneer of film animation Born in Massachusetts, Wood studied at Harvard and Berlin before teaching at the University of Wisconsin from 1897 to 1901, and spent the remainder of a distinguished career as professor of experimental physics at John Hopkins University, also working on the Manhattan Project in 1940. It was while at Wisconsin that Wood's name became temporarily linked to the history of cinema. At the time he was studying the propagation of sound waves and their reflections from surfaces, and he wanted some way to demonstrate the results. 'It occurred to me', he told the Royal Society in February 1900, 'that a very vivid idea of how these curious wave-fronts are derived from one another could be obtained if a complete series could be prepared on the film of a cinematograph, and projected in motion on a screen'. Wood had previously taken still photographs of wave fronts using spark illumination, but, finding it impossible to control the precise timing of the sparks, he was forced to abandon direct cinematography of the waves. Instead, a series of about one hundred drawings were made, based on the stills, showing the various stages of a wave's progress, and these were then photographed separately on a film, 'by means of the animatograph, which Mr. Paul has most kindly placed at our disposal'.

I was primarily interested in references to articles that listed birth and death dates. When I went back to complete the index back to Vol. 1, No. 1, I decided to include information of a more general nature. Of course it is not possible (or necessary) to include all the references to astronomers such as Galileo, Kepler, or even Henry Norris Russell, but how else are you going to find a reference to Dr. G.
