Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is stated in the preface that this book is an expansion of the series of lectures delivered at the Royal Institution in the spring of 1906. The book consists of seven chapters which deal respectively with the origin and properties of corpuscles, the two different corpuscular theories of metallic conduction, and in the number and arrangement of corpuscles in the atom. In the first chapter corpuscles in vacuum tubes are considered, and 'evidence is given showing that the corpuscles act as carriers of electricity, and that a positively electrified body owes its positive electrification to a defect of corpuscles. Also a positive charge is always associated with a mass comparable to that of the hydrogen or helium atom, whereas the corpuscles appear always to have the same mass, viz., that of about 1/1700 the atom of hydrogen. As is well known, the positive ions are given off by radium, and constitute the "X" rays. These have been examined by Rutherford and others, and the ratios of - e/m measured. The second chapter deals with the origin of the corpuscle, and here all the arguments are carefully set forth, and these tend to show that its mass is wholly electrical in origin. The evidence for the existence of corpuscles afforded by the Zeeman effect is discussed in a most luminous manner.The chapters of most interest to electrical engineers are IV and V, in which the two theories of metallic conduction of electricity are most carefully explained. These are very interesting indeed, and the mathematics used is not too heavy. The first of these theories assumes that the corpuscles are in temperature equilibrium with their surroundings, and that the "drift" of the corpuscles which constitutes the electric current, is started and maintained by the direct action of the electric field which acts on them. From considerations of the expressions derived for the conductivity of a substance, a rough estimate of the number of the corpuscles in a cubic centimetre of silver is arrived at, and the number is shown to be of the same order as the number of atoms in that volume. Again, the comparison between the ratio of the thermal to the electric conductivities gives a fairly close approximation to the results of experiment.The anomalous behaviour of alloys is pointed out in connection with the above, and the fact that pure metals appear to tend to zero resistance at the absolute zero of temperature, whilst that of alloys Beems to tend towards a definite limiting value. Lorenz's theory of radiation is next discussed, as well as the theory of the Hall, Peltier and Thomson effects. By considering the amount of heat absorbed or developed in a junction of two dissimilar metals when a current passes through it, the ratio of the number of corpuscles in unit volume of each metal may be determined, and from the Thomson effect, the change in this number for any one metal with temperature. The number arrived at in this way for silver is 1*8 x 1024. It is then shown that this makes the specific heat of silver about 10 times larger than the value required by experiment.... - The Electrical Review, Volume 61 [1907]

Download or read book Late Medieval and Early Modern Corpuscular Matter Theories written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2022-05-20 with total page 620 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume deals with corpuscular matter theory that was to emerge as the dominant model in the seventeenth century. By retracing atomist and corpuscularian ideas to a variety of mutually independent medieval and Renaissance sources in natural philosophy, medicine, alchemy, mathematics, and theology, this volume shows the debt of early modern matter theory to previous traditions and thereby explains its bewildering heterogeneity. The book assembles nineteen carefully selected contributions by some of the most notable historians of medieval and early modern philosophy and science. All chapters present new research results and will therefore be of interest to historians of philosophy, science, and medicine between 1150 and 1750.

This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Elements, Principles and Particles, Antonio Clericuzio explores the relationships between chemistry and corpuscular philosophy in the age of the Scientific Revolution. Science historians have regarded chemistry and corpuscular philosophy as two distinct traditions. Clericuzio's view is that since the beginning of the 17th century atomism and chemistry were strictly connected. This is attested by Daniel Sennert and by many hitherto little-known French and English natural philosophers. They often combined a corpuscular theory of matter with Paracelsian chemical (and medical) doctrines. Boyle plays a central part in the present book: Clericuzio redefines Boyle's chemical views, by showing that Boyle did not subordinate chemistry to the principles of mechanical philosophy. When Boyle explained chemical phenomena, he had recourse to corpuscles endowed with chemical, not mechanical, properties. The combination of chemistry and corpuscular philosophy was adopted by a number of chemists active in the last decades of the 17th century, both in England and on the Continent. Using a large number of primary sources, the author challenges the standard view of the corpuscular theory of matter as identical with the mechanical philosophy. He points out that different versions of the corpuscular philosophy flourished in the 17th century. Most of them were not based on the mechanical theory, i.e. on the view that matter is inert and has only mechanical properties. Throughout the 17th century, active principles, as well as chemical properties, are attributed to corpuscles. Given its broad coverage, the book is a significant contribution to both history of science and history of philosophy.
