His family were committed to liberal political reform and personal advancement. Both he and his elder brother James Thomson (1822-1892), who also became a prominent physicist, were educated at home by their father. In 1832, Thomson's father took up the post of Professor of mathematics at Glasgow University . Thomson himself entered the University two years later at the age of ten to study Natural Philosophy (Science). He was elected to the position of Professor of Natural Philosophy at the University of Glasgow, at the age of 22, where he created the first physics laboratory in a British University. He spent most of his life there. Achievements: Thomson patented 70 inventions and published 661 papers in all, the first of which was at the age of 16. He did important research in

51. Fusion Thus, with great authority and eloquence lord kelvin declared in 1862 lord kelvin estimated the lifetime of the sun, and by implication the earth, http://nobelprize.org/physics/articles/fusion/sun_1.html

HOME SITE HELP ABOUT SEARCH ... EDUCATIONAL The Age of the Sun How old is the sun? How does the sun shine? These questions are two sides of the same coin, as we shall see. The rate at which the sun is radiating energy is easily computed by using the measured rate at which energy reaches the earth's surface and the distance between the earth and the sun. The total energy that the sun has radiated away over its lifetime is approximately the product of the current rate at which energy is being emitted, which is called the solar luminosity, times the age of the sun. The older the sun is, the greater the total amount of radiated solar energy. The greater the radiated energy, or the larger the age of the sun, the more difficult it is to find an explanation of the source of solar energy. To better appreciate how difficult it is to find an explanation, let us consider a specific illustration of the enormous rate at which the sun radiates energy. Suppose we put a cubic centimeter of ice outside on a summer day in such a way that all of the sunshine is absorbed by the ice. Even at the great distance between the earth and the sun, sunshine will melt the ice cube in about 40 minutes. Since this would happen anywhere in space at the earth's distance from the sun, a huge spherical shell of ice centered on the sun and 300 million km (200 million miles) in diameter would be melted at the same time. Or, shrinking the same amount of ice down to the surface of the sun, we can calculate that an area ten thousand times the area of the earth's surface and about half a kilometer (0.3 mile) thick would also be melted in 40 minutes by the energy pouring out of the sun.

Send it to a friend! By far, the most famous Professor of Natural Philosophy at the University of Glasgow was William Thomson, later Lord Kelvin, who held the chair from 1846 (when he was 22) to 1897. He was one of the most distinguished scientists of his age and made a name for himself and for Glasgow University in many areas of physics such as thermodynamics, electricity, navigation and geology. His name has been given to the unit of temperature, the Kelvin He was born in Belfast on 26 June, 1824. His father became a Professor of Mathematics at Glasgow in 1834. This allowed Kelvin to enter the University at the age of ten. He further studied at Cambridge and Paris before returning to Glasgow for his Professorship, which he got with the help of his father, who was still a Maths Professor.

Joule's views of the nature of heat strongly influenced Thomson's mind, with the result that in 1848 Thomson proposed his absolute scale of temperature, which is independent of the properties of any particular thermometric substance, and in 1851 he presented to the Royal Society of Edinburgh a paper on the dynamical theory of heat, which reconciled the work of Sadi Carnot with the conclusions of Count Rumford

A D V E N T U R E S in C Y B E R S O U N D William Thompson, (Lord Kelvin) : 1824 - 1907 Born in Belfast, Ireland, this British physicist began the papers on the laws of conservation and dissipation of energy. He published 661 papers on scientific subjects and patented 70 inventions. Knighted (as Lord Kelvin) by Queen Victoria for his work on the electrical engine, he was in charge of laying the first successful transatlantic cable in 1866. He was educated at the University of Glasgow and Cambridge University. Source: http://www.energy.ca.gov/energy/education/scientists/kelvin.html William Thomson's thermodynamics studies led to his proposal of an absolute scale of temperature. The Kelvin absolute temperature scale derives its name from the title, Baron Kelvin of Largs , that Thomson received from the British government in 1892. Born: 26 June 1824 in Belfast, Ireland Died: 17 Dec 1907 in Netherhall (near Largs), Ayrshire, Scotland) Thomson attended Glasgow University from the age of 10. While there he read Fourier's work on the application of abstract mathematics to heat flow. In 1841 Thomson entered Cambridge and took his BA in 1845. In that year he read George Green's work which had a major influence on Thomson's work. Thomson was appointed professor of natural philosophy at the University of Glasgow in 1846 and remained there for the rest of his career. In 1847-49 he collaborated with Stokes on hydrodynamical studies, which Thomson applied to electrical and atomic theory. The absolute scale he proposed in 1848 was based on a theory of heat by Sadi Carnot. Thomson also observed (1852) what is now called the Joule-Thomson effect, namely that the decrease in temperature of a gas when it expands in a vacuum.

Spoken in "There is nothing new to be discovered in physics now, All that remains is more and more precise measurement." Spoken in an address to the British Association for the Advancement of Science "I often say that when you can measure what you are speaking about, and express it in numbers, you know something about it; but when you cannot express it in numbers, your knowledge is of a meagre and unsatisfactory kind; it may be the beginning of knowledge, but you have scarcely, in your thoughts, advanced to the stage of Science, whatever the matter may be."
