Extractions: Födelseland: England Födelseår: 1882 Död år: 1944 Porträtt från 1932 (73 kB) Arthur Stanley Eddington föddes den 28 december år 1882 i England. Han studerade vid universitetet i Cambridge och fick sin doktorstitel där. Eddington fortsatte sin akademiska karriär vid Cambridges observatorium i Greenwich där han var verksam under totalt sju år. Han blev professor i Cambridge år 1913 och chef för observatoriet år 1914. Eddington var vid denna tidpunkt världens näst främsta auktoritet på relativitetsteorin , endast överträffad av teorins skapare, Albert Einstein (1979-1955). Han ledde (tillsammans med Frank Dyson) solförmörkelseexpeditionen år 1919 som (utan egentlig grund) bekräftade den allmänna relativitetsteorins påstående att materia böjer av ljus. I början av 1920-talet visade han att temperaturen i stjärnornas centrum måste vara miljontals grader för att motstå gravitationens tryck. Eddington konstaterade att stjärnornas massor varierar mer än strålningstrycket och att detta beror på strålningstrycket inne i stjärnorna varierar med fjärde potensen av temperaturen (liksom strålningsenergin enligt Stefan-Boltzmanns lag). Enligt denna lag skulle en massiv stjärna krevera i den mån de alls kunde bildas. Men detta förklarade han senare med härledningar ifrån massa-luminositetrelationen. Efter viktiga arbeten inom stjärnornas dynamik så ledde han introduktionen av den allmänna relativitetsteorin inom kosmologin. Eddington skrev totalt tretton böcker, bl a

Hij promoveerde in in Cambridge toen hij 22 was en werd benoemd tot hoofd-assistent van het Greenwich observatorium. In werd hij benoemd tot hoogleraar astronomie in Cambridge. Eddington was een van de eerste astronomen die de volle betekenis van de relativiteitstheorie van Albert Einstein besefte. In organiseerde hij een expeditie naar het eiland Principe om op 29 mei een zonsverduistering te observeren. Tijdens deze zonsverduistering kon hij aantonen dat het licht van sterren, dat vlak langs de verduisterde zon trok, door de zwaartekracht van de zon werd afgebogen. Dit was het eerste experimentele bewijs van de relativiteitstheorie. Verder ontwikkelde hij in 1926 als eerste een model van het inwendige van de zon . Zijn idee bestond eruit dat in de zon een evenwicht bestond tussen zwaartekracht gasdruk en stralingsdruk . Hij opperde twee theorie«n over de energiebron van de zon: kernfusie of de omzetting van massa in energie door annihilatie Pas in 1937 toonde Hans Bethe aan dat de energie van de zon door kernfusieprocessen van waterstof werd geleverd.

Extractions: Version for printing Arthur Eddington 's father, Arthur Henry Eddington, taught at a Quaker training college in Lancashire before moving to Kendal to become headmaster of Stramongate School. He died of typhoid in an epidemic which swept the country in 1884 before his son was two years old. Arthur Eddington's mother, Sarah Ann Stout, came from Darlington and, like her husband, was also from a Quaker family. On Arthur Henry Eddington's death she was left to bring up Arthur and his older sister with relatively little income. The family moved to Weston-super-Mare where at first Arthur was educated at home before spending three years at a preparatory school. In 1893 Arthur entered Brymelyn School in Weston-super-Mare which was mainly for boarders but he did not board at the school, being one of a small number of day pupils. The school provided a good education within the limited resources available to it and allowed Arthur to excel in mathematics and English literature. His progress through the school was rapid and he earned high distinction in mathematics. The level to which the school was able to take Arthur was, however, not very advanced and his good grounding in mathematics stopped short of reaching the differential and integral calculus.

Extractions: English physicist who theoretically investigated stellar interiors. He calculated that the temperature at the center of the Sun would have to be in the millions of degrees Kelvin and published the mass-luminosity law for stars in 1924. He also worked out the causes for brightness variations in Cepheid variables On theoretical grounds, he predicted that Betelgeuse would have an angular diameter as large as 0.051 arc seconds. Eddington was one of the first to appreciate the importance of Einstein's theories of special and general relativity and published a treatise on the subject. He led an expedition to observed the total solar eclipse of 1919, in which the bending of light rays predicted by general relativity was observed (although it was later shown that the uncertainties were too large to make any definitive statement). Eddington was arrogant, and in his later years, cooked up pseudoscientific "proofs" on "physical" grounds that the fine structure constant was exactly 1/136. When experiments yielded a more accurate value, Eddington produced another proof "proving" that

http://www.cartage.org.lb/en/themes/Biographies/MainBiographies/E/Eddington/1.ht

Extractions: Eddington, Arthur Stanley British astrophysicist who studied the motions, equilibrium, luminosity, and atomic structure of the stars. In 1919 his observation of stars during a solar eclipse confirmed Albert Einstein' s prediction that light is bent when passing near the Sun, in accordance with the general theory of relativity. In The Expanding Universe 1933 Eddington expressed the theory that in the spherical universe the outer galaxies or spiral nebulae are receding from one another. Eddington discovered the fundamental role of radiation pressure in the maintenance of stellar equilibrium, explained the method by which the energy of a star moves from its interior to its exterior, and in 1924 showed that the luminosity of a star depends almost exclusively on its mass - a discovery that caused a complete revision of contemporary ideas on stellar evolution. Eddington was born in Kendal, Cumbria, and studied at Cambridge. Working for the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, London, he was sent to Malta 1909 to determine the longitude of the geodetic station there, and in 1912 he went to Brazil as the leader of an eclipse expedition. In 1913, Eddington returned to Cambridge as professor, and was director of the university's observatory from 1914.

http://www.daviddarling.info/encyclopedia/E/Eddington_Arthur.html

Extractions: An English astrophysicist who pioneered the study of stellar structure. Educated at the universities of Manchester and Cambridge, he spent seven years as chief assistant at the Royal Greenwich Observatory and 41 as Plumian Professor at Cambridge. He made important investigations of stellar dynamics, and was an influential supporter of the view that the spiral nebulae were external galaxies. He contributed much to the introduction of Einsteins general theory of relativity into cosmology, writing books on the new theory for both his fellow scientists and the public, and led one of the two 1919 solar eclipse expeditions that confirmed the predicted bending of starlight by gravity. Eddingtons greatest contributions concerned the astrophysics of stars. He dealt with the importance of radiation pressure , the transfer of energy by radiation, the mass-luminosity relation , pulsations in Cepheid variables , and the very high densities of white dwarfs , and was among the first to argue that subatomic reactions must power the stars.

His records won him a 60 pounds scholarship in 1898, and was able to attend Owens College in Manchester once he turned 16 later that year. He spent the first year in a general course, but turned to physics for the next three years. Eddington was greatly influenced by one of his mathematics teachers, Horace Lamb . His progress continued to be rapid, winning him several additional scholarships and allowing him to graduate with a B.Sc. with First Class Honours in 1902.

Extractions: Sir Arthur Eddington (1882-1944) Sir Arthur Eddington was one of the most prominent and important astrophysicists of his time. He made several significant contributions to the area of physics. He was one of the first physicists who understood the early ideas of relativity along with Albert Einstein. Eddington was one of the earliest creators of the concept of relativity. He helped to confirm some of Einstein's work and make valuable additions to the area. Though he was very hostile to the views of some of his colleagues in his later life, he was truly a brilliant physicist. This page was created by Clark Bennett. Founding Fathers Index
