    Extractions: In 1897 J. J. Thomson , an English physicist, conducted a series of experiments on cathode rays and after observing that the beam of light in the cathode ray tube is attracted to a positive charge and repelled by a negative charge he concluded that the rays consist of a stream of small, electrically negatively charged particles which have a mass over a thousand times less than that of a hydrogen atom. Thomson has discovered the electron. From this point onward, it becomes increasingly clear that atoms are not fundamental particles, but in fact are made up of smaller particles.

    Extractions: The American physicist Robert Andrews Millikan, b. Morrison, Ill., Mar. 22, 1868, d. Dec. 19, 1953, determined through an oil-drop experiment the value of the charge on an electron and demonstrated that the charge was a discrete constant rather than a statistical average. For this work, as well as for his work on the photoelectric effect, he received the Nobel Prize for physics in 1923. Millikan was affiliated with the University of Chicago (1896-1921) and the California Institute of Technology (1921-53). His First Course in Physics (1906), written with Henry Gale, was a standard textbook for many years. James A.

    Extractions: California Institute of Technology I am grateful to Sigma Xi for honoring me with the John P. McGovern award, and for the opportunity it gives me to speak to you today, at this forum on ethical challenges in science. I have decided to use my McGovern award lecture to tell the story of the case against Robert A. Millikan. Millikan was the founder, first leader, first Nobel Prize-winner and all-around patron saint of the California Institute of Technology, an institution that has given me employment for more years than I care to remember. We at Caltech feel a solemn duty to defend our hero. He has been accused of male chauvinism, anti-Semitism, mistreating his graduate students and, worst of all, scientific fraud. My purpose today is to tell his story, look into these various accusations and, to the extent that I can, mount a defense for Professor Millikan. Millikan was born in 1868, the son of a Midwestern minister. He attended Oberlin College, got his Ph.D. in physics from Columbia University, did some postdoctoral work in Germany and, in the last decade of the 19th century, took a position at the brand-new University of Chicago in a physics department headed by his idol, A. A. Michelson.

    Extractions: Robert Millikan was an American physicist who was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics for his experiments on the photoelectric effect and on the charge carried by an electron. The renowned scientist also is well known for his studies of cosmic rays and his role in establishing the California Institute of Technology as a leading research establishment. Throughout his life, Millikan was dedicated to reconciling the realms of science and religion, publishing many books on the topic, including Science and Life Evolution in Science and Religion (1927), and Time, Matter, and Values (1932). His rural upbringing and the profession of his father, Reverend Silas Franklin Millikan, likely influenced his attitudes toward both fields. Millikan’s oil-drop experiment helped firmly establish that electrons are discrete particles, a claim that was under significant dispute at the time, and gave credence to Niels Bohr's quantum theory of the atom. Subsequent experiments carried out by Millikan were also important for providing evidence that Albert Einstein’s formula mathematically explaining the photoelectric effect, which he proposed in 1905, was correct. Later in his career, Millikan became increasingly involved in the broader aspects of science, acting as an advisor for various foundations and corporations, raising money for Caltech, and contributing to the formation of national science policies. He also continued his research efforts, however, and his studies of penetrating radiation at Caltech resulted in his coining the term
