He was born in Adelaide, where his father was Professor of Mathematics and Physics at the University of Adelaide . He later studied at the same university where he graduated with a first-class honours degree in mathematics at the age of 19. (The physics tradition at the University of Adelaide was later to be continued by Sir Marcus Oliphant and Paul Davies The years around 1915 were exciting ones in physics. It was all happening. In 1912, Max von Laue had performed ground-breaking work on the diffraction of X- rays by crystals. Soon afterwards, Lawrence decided that X-rays had a dual wave/particle nature - one of the most significant concepts in 20th century physics.

Movie Gallery Diffraction of Light In his 1704 treatise on the theory of optical phenomena ( Opticks Introduction to Diffraction Sir George Biddell Airy (1801-1892) - Sir George Airy was a distinguished nineteenth century English Astronomer Royal who carried out optical research and first drew attention to the visual defect of astigmatism. Airy manufactured the first correcting eyeglasses (1825) using a cylindrical lens design that is still in use. The diffraction disks that bear his name (Airy Disks) were discovered in the spherical center of a wavefront traveling through a circular aperture. These diffraction patterns form the smallest unit that comprises an image, thus determining the limits of optical resolution. Jacques Babinet (1794-1872) - Jacques Babinet was a French physicist, mathematician, and astronomer born in Lusignan, who is most famous for his contributions to optics. Among Babinet's accomplishments are the 1827 standardization of the Ångström unit for measuring light using the red cadmium line's wavelength, and the principle (bearing his name) that similar diffraction patterns are produced by two complementary screens. William Henry Bragg (1862-1942) - Sir William Henry Bragg was a noted British physicist and President of the Royal Society who had numerous research interests, but the work that earned him a rank as one the great leaders in science was his historic advancements in X-ray crystallography. Working with his son William Lawrence Bragg, he developed a method of bombarding single crystals with high-energy X-rays emitted by specially constructed vacuum tubes. By examining the pattern of X-rays diffracted by various crystals, Bragg and his son were able to establish some fundamental mathematical relationships between an atomic crystal structure and its diffraction pattern. For this achievement, William Henry Bragg and William Lawrence Bragg were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1915.

Gallery A History of X-Rays Links Test A History of X-Rays For more than 100 years, the use of X-rays has developed along two separate paths. In diagnostic medicine their use has been restricted to the imaging of transmitted X-rays. In contrast X-ray diffraction, based on the scattering of X-rays, is the method of choice for studying atomic and molecular structure. Indeed, medical imaging employs techniques to eliminate the scattered radiation that diffraction physicists try to detect! In order to explain why there is still enormous scope for improving the diagnostic quality of X-rays more than 100 years after their discovery it is informative to take a look at the history. Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen (1845-1923) Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen discovered X-Rays in 1895. He was awarded the Nobel prize for physics in 1901, a mere 6 years after his discovery " in recognition of the extraordinary services he has rendered by the discovery of the remarkable rays subsequently named after him".

Book Review (1) Light is a Messenger: The Life and Science of William Lawrence Bragg Title 'Light is a Messenger; The Life and Science of William Lawrence Bragg' Author Graeme K Hunter Publisher ISBN 019852921X, 322 pages hardback The thought has never crossed my mind that it would have been interesting to have had the chance to meet Isaac Newton or Albert Einstein. In the case of Sir Lawrence Bragg , who died in 1971, my entry into crystallography in 1974, just 3 years later, makes it somehow galling to have been so close, and yet so far, in time to have seen him in action. Obviously my point here, in mentioning Newton and Einstein in the same breath, is that he is such an iconic figure in the whole development of X-ray crystal structure analysis, and the many discoveries with which Bragg was closely involved in, that I feel one must rank him in the Newton or Einstein league in the history of science. The author of this biography immediately explains his reason though for writing on Sir Lawrence Bragg ('Bragg'), which is that Bragg is still the youngest ever Nobel Prize-winner and that fact alone makes Bragg an icon. There is a 'however' though, which is that Bragg was Nobel Prize-winner in 1915 jointly with his father, Sir William Henry Bragg . His father specialised more on crystallographic instrumentation and apparatus, and was also preoccupied for several years in the early 20th century with the idea that X-rays were corpuscles rather than waves. But, and skipping on a few years, and to press the point about the strength of this father and son team, they agreed to split the world of crystal structure analysis into organics for the father and inorganics for the son. Sir William Henry Bragg died in 1942 and Bragg broke away into the biological (organic!) world when he moved to Cambridge from Manchester to succeed Rutherford in 1938. Unexpectedly, Bragg teamed up there with

Sir William Lawrence Bragg Bragg, Sir William Lawrence (1890-1971), britischer Physiker. Der Sohn des bekannten Physikers Sir William Henry Bragg wurde in Adelaide geboren. Ab 1919 lehrte er als Professor in Manchester, bevor er 1937 Direktor der National Physical Laboratories wurde. 1938 übernahm er eine Professur in Cambridge und lehrte ab 1953 an der Royal Institution in London. Einen Namen machte sich Bragg, als er mit kaum 25 Jahren gemeinsam mit seinem Vater ein vereinfachtes Verfahren zur Bestimmung der Wellenlänge von Röntgenstrahlen auf kristallographischer Grundlage (Drehkristallmethode) entwickelte. Damit wurde es zugleich möglich, die bis dahin unbekannte Kristallstruktur von Mineralen, wie beispielsweise Steinsalz oder Diamant, darzustellen. Für die bahnbrechenden Arbeiten in der Röntgenstrukturanalyse und der Röntgenspektroskopie erhielt Bragg zusammen mit seinem Vater 1915 den Nobelpreis für Physik. Mit Hilfe der Braggschen Gleichung wurde es möglich, die monochromatischen Röntgenstrahlen an Kristallen zu beugen. Zurück zum Inhaltsverzeichnis

Sir William Henry Bragg was Professor of Mathematics and Physics at the University of Adelaide from 1886 to 1909. In 1898 he spent a year on study leave in England, where he purchased equipment for the University's physics laboratory and the new engineering school. He also bought a small brass microscope for his own use and the amusement of his family. Professor Bragg occasionally used this instrument in his research into x-rays, for which he shared the Nobel Prize in 1915 with his son, Lawrence. About the microscope...
