Pierre Louis Moureau de Maupertuis back to Index Related: Nobody Born: 28 Sep 1698 in St.Malo, Britanny, France Died: 27 Jul 1759 in Basel, Switzerland French mathematician and natural philosopher. FRom 1731 paid member of the Academy of Sciencees of France, in 1746 he became the first president of the prussian Academie Royale des Science et Belles Lettres , newly founded by Frederick the Great in Berlin who called many important scientists to the academy, notably Leonard Euler. In 1756, seriously ill, Maupertuis returned first to France but then joined his friend Johannes II Bernoulli in Basel where he died in 1759. Along with Voltaire, Maupertuis was a supported of Newton's theory of gravitation which he had come to know while visiting London in 1728, and fought against Descartes' ether whirls. Of decisive importance for the development of mechanics washis principle of least action, formulated in 1747, although his own formulation was still somewhat vague (the principle was formulated in precise form by Euler and Lagrange). A widely noticed dispute of the priority started by the Swiss mathematician Samuel Koenig who attibuted the principle to Leibniz, was eventually decided in favor of Maupertuis. This dispute alienated Maupertuis from the Prussian Academy and contributed much to his bad state of health. Edited by Christoph Paus today.

Pierre-Louis Moreau de Maupertuis francoski matematik in astronom 17. julij Saint Malo , Ille-et-Vilaine, Francija 27. julij Basel Å vica Del svoje mladosti je preživel kot muÅ¡ketir . Leta je postal profesor matematike na Francoski Akademiji znanosti (Acad©mie des sciences). Leta je obiskal Anglijo , kjer so ga izvolili v Kraljevo družbo . Takrat je tudi začel občudovati pravkar umrlega Newtona . Priložnost, da to pokaže, se mu je ponudila leta , ko so mu zaupali vodstvo odprave in je skupaj s Clairautom Camusom Lemonnierjem Celsiusom in Outhierjem odpotoval v Laponsko (Lapland, Laponija) v povezavi z odpravo Bouguera in de La Condaminea leta na ekvator v Peru . Obe odpravi naj bi merili dolžino poldnevniÅ¡ke (meridianske) stopinje in s tem izmerili in dokazali sploščenost Zemlje. UspeÅ¡en izid odprav bi pomenil novo potrditev Newtonove teorije. Descartesovi pristaÅ¡i so trdili, da je Zemlja na polih podaljÅ¡ana, Newtonovi pa, da je sploščena. Cassini in njegov sin J. Cassini sta med leti

Used with permission of Maiken Naylor, University at Buffalo, Buffalo, NY, USA, http://ublib.buffalo.edu/libraries/units/sel/exhibits/stamps A joint issue of France and Finland commemorates simultaneous 1736 French expeditions to the equator in South America and the polar regions of Lapland to determine the shape of the earth, generally acknowledged to be spherical. Charles LaCondamine (1701-1774) in Peru and Pierre Maupertuis (1698-1759) in Lapland surveyed the curvature of the meridians and found that the earth was somewhat flattened at the pole, and more curved at the equator, giving it the shape of an oblate spheroid. This confirmed Newton's theory put forth in the Principia that the centrifugal force of the rotating earth caused it to be distended at the equator, where the speed of rotation was greatest, and flattened at the poles, where the speed was zero - as indicated on the Finnish stamp. Anders Celsius (1701-1744), the Swedish astronomer, was also a member of the northern expedition. He was the inventor of the centigrade thermometer, which divides the range in temperature between the freezing and boiling points of water into 100 degrees. These divisions are now called degrees Celsius.

He is often credited with having invented the principle of least action He was born at Saint-Malo France . At the age of twenty he entered the army, becoming a lieutenant in a cavalry regiment, and studying mathematics in his spare time. After five years he left the army and was admitted in a member of the Académie des Sciences . In he visited London , and was elected a fellow of the Royal Society . In he acted as chief of the expedition sent by King Louis XV to Lapland to measure the length of a degree of the meridian , and on his return home he became a member of almost all the scientific societies of Europe. In Maupertuis went to Berlin at the invitation of Frederick II of Prussia, and took part in the Battle of Mollwitz , where he was taken prisoner by the Austria ns. On his release he returned to Berlin, and thence to Paris , where he was elected director of the Academy of Sciences in , and in the following year was admitted into the Académie française.
