Peter Barlow was self-educated but this education was sufficiently good that he was able to compete successfully to became an assistant mathematics master at the Royal Military Academy at Woolwich. He was appointed to the post in 1801 and he began publishing mathematical articles in the Ladies Diary and he became sufficiently well established as a leading authority on mathematics that after a while he was asked to contribute various articles on mathematics for encyclopaedias. In addition to these articles, Barlow also published several important books, for example in 1811 he published An elementary investigation of the theory of numbers and three years later he published A new mathematical and philosophical dictionary. He is remembered most for two important contributions. In 1814 he produced a second book, in addition to the one described above, entitled New mathematical tables.

    AAAA Peter William Barlow 19 May ) was an English civil engineer particularly associated with bridges (he designed the first Lambeth Bridge , a crossing of the River Thames in London ), the design of tunnels and the development of tunnelling techniques. He was the son of an engineer and mathematician, professor Peter Barlow of the Royal Military Academy in Woolwich , south-east London. His brother William Henry Barlow was a noted 19th century railway engineer. While designing the piers of Lambeth Bridge (a suspension bridge design since replaced by the current structure) in , Peter W. Barlow experimented with driving iron cylinders into the clay upon which much of central and north London sits. It was this experience that prepared him to work with James Henry Greathead on the development of a tunnelling shield to dig the Tower Subway in Views Personal tools Navigation Search Toolbox

    Peter Barlow
    b. October 13, 1776, Norwich, England
    d. March 1, 1862, Woolwich, England

    English mathematician and engineer Peter Barlow investigated areas of mathematics, physical sciences and engineering in the first half of the nineteenth century including: railway technology, number theory, astronomical optics, electromagnetism and strengths of materials. He invented two varieties of achromatic (non-colour-distorting) telescope lenses known as Barlow lenses. In 1819, Barlow began work on the problem of deviation in ship compasses caused by the presence of iron in the hull. For his method of correcting the deviation by juxtaposing the compass with a suitably shaped piece of iron, he was awarded the Copley Medal. He also designed in 1822 one of the first models of an electric motor supplied by continuous current.
    Peter Barlow was born at Norwich on October 13, 1776. The events during his first years of his life are quite unknown. It is known that he kept a school and gained some scientific knowledge. He became a correspondent to the 'Ladies' Diary', then under the management of a Dr. Hutton, professor of mathematics at Woolwich. By his advice Barlow sought and obtained the post of assistant mathematical master in 1801. He was promoted to the post of professor of mathematics in the Royal Military Academy, Woolwich. His position brought him access to the arsenal, foundry and dockyard for his experiments and allowed Barlow contact with colleagues with similar interests. Barlow was one of a group including Edward Sabine, Charles Babbage, John Herschel, and Michael Faraday interested in magnetic and geomagnetic subjects.

In 1814 he produced Barlow's Tables which give factors, squares, cubes, square roots, reciprocals and hyperbolic logs of all numbers from 1 to 10 000. This was greatly used until made completely obsolete by calculators. His second major contribution makes his name still well known by amateur astronomers. He invented the Barlow lens, a telescope lens consisting of a colourless liquid between two pieces of glass. In his lifetime Barlow's greatest achievement was being elected to the Royal Society and receiving its Copley medal for his work on magnetism.

    ARTIST OF THE MONTH - May 2000:
    Peter Barlow
    by Lynn Worth
    (to see past Artists of the Month, please see our Artist Archive
    I
    n the skilled hands of craftsman Peter Barlow a pair of entry doors are transformed into artful and dramatic statements. Barlow makes his elegant creations from planks of Ponderosa pine, hickory and mahogany in a well equipped, 2,500 square foot workshop located in Talpa, southeast of Taos.
    "I specialize in creating aged wooden doors," Barlow says. "I spend a couple of mornings a week just drawing and designing. Sometimes I take a client's idea and develop it, but most of my door designs are original. A few spring from the more traditional European styles with an Old World flavor."
    The 'aging process' is accomplished with a wire brush and wide chisels, creating what Barlow calls an adzed look. The finish is often accented by hammered or patinaed copper panels and occasionally a stunning piece of stained glass. The design motif of each door is enhanced with complementing hardware. Some of the metalwork is done in the workshop, "We re-forge all the hinges to heat-blacken them so the finish looks naturally aged," Barlow explains.

Before his studies on Physics in Tuebingen between 1909-13 he studied law from 1902-06 in Strasbourg, Munich and Berlin. Between 1907 and 1909 Back worked for the administration of justice in Alsac-Lorraine. In 1909 he asked for a leave to finish his studies on Physics, which was granted, and left the administration of justice in 1912. He received his Ph.D. (Dr.) 1913 in Tuebingen as a pupil of Friedrich Paschen. His thesis, titled 'Zur Prestonschen Regel', covered a topic which is today known as the 'Paschen-Back-Effect'. The main instrumental improvements which allowed Back to do his studies were on the light source, which had to work in a small gap only 4 mm (3/16") wide between the poles of a strong electromagnet.
