| Citation | Formerly Professor of Physics, University of Bristol. Distinguished for his researches in physics, and particularly for his investigations of the discharge of electricity from points, and the early development of novel methods for measuring the velocity of the ions. Author of the following papers: - 'Report of British Association Committee on Point Discharge' (1891, 1892); 'Velocity of Electricity in Electric Wind' (BA Report, 1898); 'Velocity and Mass of Ions in Electric Wind' (Phil Mag,1899); 'Specific Velocity of Ions from Points' (ibid, 1901); 'Changes of Pressure in Hydrogen during Point Discharge' (ibid, 1908); 'Pressure of the Electric Wind in Hydrogen containing traces of Oxygen' (ibid, 1910); 'Forces at the Surface of a Needle Point Discharging in Air; Ionizing Processes at a Point Discharging in Air' (ibid, 1910); 'A Magnetic Potentiometer' (ibid, 1887); 'Electrolytic Theory of Dielectrics' (ibid, 1893); 'A Sensitive Manometer' (included in a Paper by Stanton) (Proc Inst CE, 1903-1904), and other papers. |
