He completed his studies at Zurich then published on mathematical physics, in particular on magnetism, heat conduction and on the attraction of ellipsoids. In 1854 he became a maker of precision mathematical instruments. Amsler invented the polar planimeter, a device for measuring areas enclosed by plane curves. It was based on polar coordinates whereas earlier instruments were based on cartesian coordinates. His shop produced 50 000 such instruments during his life.

Amsler von Lenzburg Nach dem Schwabenkrieg begann 1508 eine zweite bernische Unternehmung beim Umbau des Schlosses Lenzburg. Bauherr Rudolf Huber und Hans Vögeli, Werkmeister der Stadt Bern, erschienen in Lenzburg, um den Bauvorgang zu regeln, nämlich "das Haus auf dem Schloss Lenzburg, genannt des Herzogen Haus, wiederum in Dach und Gemach zu bringen". In diesem Zusammenhang wurde laut den "Verdingen" die Renovation des baufälligen Herzogen- oder Ritterhauses 1509 ausgeführt von den Zimmermeistern Ulrich Amsler, Lenzburg und Heinrich Sumerau, Mellingen sowie durch den Maurermeister Lienhart, der einen Anbau auf der Kapellenseite herzurichten hatte. In Basel erkaufte sich im Jahre 1539 ein Bartolme Amsler das Bürgerrecht. Er stammte von Lenzburg und war ebenfalls Zimmermann. Verwandtschaftliche Beziehungen bestanden auch zwischen den Amslern von Lenzburg zu jenen von Schinznach.

P Q R S T U V W X Y Z A Abbè, Ernst Físico alemán cuyas innovaciones teóricas y técnicas condujeron a grandes mejoras en el diseño del microscopio, tal como el uso del condensador, que introdujo en 1870. Descubrió la fórmula óptica ahora llamada condición de Abbè, que es uno de los requerimientos que debe satisfacer una lente para estar libre de las distorsiones ocasionadas por las aberraciones esféricas. En 1863 se unió a la Universidad de Jena, donde fue profesor de física y matemáticas (1870) y director de los observatorios astronómico y meteorológico (1878). En 1866 fue nombrado director de investigación de los laboratorios ópticos Zeiss . Dos años después inventó el sistema de lentes de los microscopios.En 1891 estableció y dotó la Fundación Carl Zeiss para la investigación científica y su aprovechamiento social. Además cinco de años después reconstituyó la sociedad óptica Zeiss en una cooperativa, donde los trabajadores y la universidad participaban en los beneficios. Se destacó, en el terreno humano, por su reconocido altruismo, cediendo sus derechos de invención a la Universidad de Jena y a otras instituciones. Entre variadas aportaciones científicas hizo un diseño de cámara clara para el dibujo manual de objetos microscópicos y construyó un condensador constituido por un conjunto de lentes situadas debajo de la platina y por encima del espejo.
