    Extractions: Biography Marin Mersenne, born in 1588 and died at Paris in 1648, was a Franciscan friar, who made it his business to be acquainted and correspond with the French mathematicians of that date and many of their foreign contemporaries. In 1634 he published a translation of Galileo's mechanics; in 1644 he issued his Cogita Physico-Mathematica, by which he is best known, containing an account of some experiments in physics; he also wrote a synopsis of mathematics, which was printed in 1664.

    Extractions: (4 December 1996) Mersenne was a Minim friar. Minims are not Jesuits. He was, however, educated by the Jesuits. Furthermore, Mersenne was not an Inquisitor. Indeed, he was probably quite a pleasant fellow. Please read these enlightening and scholarly emails that I received. (Learn the fate of his old residence!) You are probably visiting here because of an interest in Mersenne Primes. It was not until the mid 20th century that Mersenne became known primarily for his Prime Number Conjecture. Historically, he was much better known for his correspondence with leading scientists of the day (hence the other Mersenne Mailing List ). Interested in optics, he also been called (no pun intended) the Father of Acoustics. Here are some links that will tell you something about the man himself: a nice biography (and another picture!) courtesy of the Algebra Group WWW Server of the University of St. Andrews, Scotland.

    Extractions: The Mersenne numbers are generated from the formula 2 - 1, in which p is a prime. This formula, first proposed by Mersenne in 1644, does not yield a prime number for every prime value given to p, but it has long been of interest in studying primes and finding new ones. One of Mersenne's most important contributions was his long service as a communication link between philosophers and scientists throughout Europe. Because there were then no scientific journals, men might work a lifetime on the same project, never knowing of one another's existence. Mersenne met regularly and corresponded at length with eminent figures, including Descartes, Girard Desargues, Pierre de Fermat, Blaise Pascal, and Galileo, and it was said that "To inform Mersenne of a discovery, meant to publish it throughout the whole of Europe." In addition to his work on prime numbers, Mersenne investigated cycloids (certain geometric curves) and proposed to the Dutch physicist Christiaan Huygens the use of the pendulum as a timing device, thus inspiring the pendulum clock. His published works include (1625; "Truth in the Sciences") and

    Extractions: The PlanetMath encyclopedia is a ``semantic network'' of sorts. It is a set of concepts (entries in the encyclopedia) whose meanings depend, not only on the content of the entries, but on the position in the network (the connections to other entries.) This is of course the case because known mathematics represents one big semantic network. It is possible to understand portions of it that are only ``linked'' to each other and derive meanings from each other, but overall the entire ``network'' is connected and one must be able to move throughout the network to understand any given ``node'' (concept). Because mathematics is like this, it is supremely important that users of PlanetMath are able to jump to requisite concepts in the network in order to understand the current one, all the way down to the concepts that are so simple they are evident to the intuition. However, there are so many of these connections that is is too much to ask for authors of entries to do the linking themselves. Not only is it too much work, but the authors just may not be aware of which requisite concepts are already defined on PlanetMath. To solve this problem, PlanetMath implements automatic reference linking between entries in the encyclopedia. In essence, when an entry is ``rendered'' for display, the text is broken down and scanned for words that invoke entries that have been defined already. These words are then turned into hyperlinks. Doing this automatically almost completely frees the author from having to think about links, however, it is not completely infallible. Because of this, the user can ultimately override the automatic linking, or create their own original linking (see User Linking Controls.)

    Extractions: Subjects: Abstract: Marin Mersenne was central to the new mathematical approach to nature in Paris in the 1630s and 1640s. Intellectually, he was one of the most enthusiastic practitioners of that program, and published a number of influential books in those important decades. But Mersenne started his career in a rather different way. In the early 1620s, Mersenne was known in Paris primarily as a writer on religious topics, and a staunch defender of Aristotle against attacks by those who would replace him by a new philosophy. In this essay, I would like to examine Mersenne's changing attitude toward Galileo. In the early 1620s, Mersenne lists Galileo among the innovators in natural philosophy whose views should be rejected. However, by the early 1630s, less than a decade later, Mersenne has become one of Galileo's most ardent supporters. How, then, did Mersenne learn to love Galileo?

    Extractions: Portrait of Marin Mersenne Like Peiresc in Aix-en-Provence and Kircher in Rome, the Minim friar Marin Mersenne occupied the central node of extremely important correspondence network. At his cell in the convent of the Minims near the Place Royale in Paris, Mersenne organized informal meetings of scholars and natural philosophers, to discuss issues ranging from music to experiments in mechanics. As well as publishing numerous books of his own, from subjects ranging from music theory to biblical exegesis, Mersenne played an active role in keeping his many correspondents informed of the latest discoveries and developments in his many fields of interest. Typically, Mersenne was extremely quick to hear the news of Line's magnetic clock. Godefrid Wendelin's description of the clock was sent to Mersenne on 15 June 1633, even before sentence had been passed on Galileo in Rome. Recommended external sites on Mersenne
