John William Strutt , third Baron Rayleigh, was born on November 12, 1842 at Langford Grove, Maldon, Essex, as the son of John James Strutt, second Baron, and his wife Clara Elizabeth La Touche, eldest daughter of Captain Richard Vicars, R. E. He was one of the very few members of higher nobility who won fame as an outstanding scientist. Throughout his infancy and youth he was of frail physique; his education was repeatedly interrupted by ill-health, and his prospects of attaining maturity appeared precarious. After a short spell at Eton at the age of 10, mainly spent in the school sanatorium, three years in a private school at Wimbledon, and another short stay at Harrow, he finally spent four years with the Rev. George Townsend Warner (1857) who took pupils at Torquay. In 1861 he entered Trinity College Cambridge , where he commenced reading mathematics, not at first equal in attainments to the best of his contemporaries, but his exceptional abilities soon enabled him to overtake his competitors. He graduated in the Mathematical Tripos in 1865 as Senior Wrangler and Smith's Prizeman. In 1866 he obtained a fellowship at Trinity which he held until 1871, the year of his marriage. A severe attack of rheumatic fever in 1872 made him spend the winter in Egypt and Greece. Shortly after his return his father died (1873) and he succeeded to the barony, taking up residence in the family seat, Terling Place, at Witham, Essex. He now found himself compelled to devote part of his time to the management of his estates (7000 acres). The combination of general scientific knowledge and acumen with acquired knowledge of agriculture made his practice in estate management in many respects in advance of his time. Nevertheless, in 1876 he left the entire management of the land to his younger brother.

Certainly it was a family with little previous interest in science for they were mostly landowners with interests in the countryside. One exception was Robert Boyle , who was a distant relation. Let us say at the beginning of this article that we shall refer to Strutt as Rayleigh throughout this article although he did not succeed to the title until he was 30 years old. As a boy Rayleigh suffered from poor health and his schooling at both Eton and Harrow was disrupted. He had to leave both schools after a short period due to health problems. Four years spent at the Reverend Warner's boarding school prepared Rayleigh for university and at this stage he did begin to show signs of mathematical ability. During these four years he had a private tutor but overall he showed little sign of being anything other than an average child of average ability. He entered Trinity College, Cambridge, in October 1861 where he took the mathematical Tripos. His coach at Cambridge was Edward

Lord Rayleigh (1842-1919, born John William Strutt) Density of Nitrogen Nature , 512 (1892) [from Scientific Papers , vol IV (Cambridge, UK: Cambridge Press, 1903)] I am much puzzled by some recent results as to the density of nitrogen, and shall be obliged if any of your chemical readers can offer suggestions as to the cause. According to two methods of preparation I obtain quite distinct values. The relative difference, amounting to about 1/1000 part, is small in itself, but it lies entirely outside the errors of experiment, and can only be attributed to a variation in the character of the gas. In the first method the oxygen of atmospheric air is removed in the ordinary way by metallic copper, itself reduced by hydrogen from the oxide. The air, freed from CO by potash , gives up its oxygen to copper heated in hard glass over a large Bunsen, and then passes over about a foot of red-hot copper in a furnace. This tube was used merely as an indicator, and the copper in it remained bright throughout. The gas then passed through a wash-bottle containing sulphuric acid, thence again through the furnace over copper oxide , and finally over sulphuric acid, potash and phosphoric anhydride.

Rayleigh (of Terling Place), John William Strutt, 3rd Baron Rayleigh, engraving by R. Cottot By courtesy of the International Telecommunication Union, Geneva (b. Nov. 12, 1842, Langford Grove, Maldon, Essex, Eng.d. June 30, 1919, Terling Place, Witham, Essex), English physical scientist who made fundamental discoveries in the fields of acoustics and optics that are basic to the theory of wave propagation in fluids. He received the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1904 for his successful isolation of argon , an inert atmospheric gas. Strutt suffered from poor health throughout his childhood and youth, and it was necessary for him to be withdrawn from both Eton and Harrow. In 1857 he began four years of private study under a tutor. In 1861 Strutt entered Trinity College, Cambridge, from which he was graduated with a B.A. in 1865. He early developed an absorbing interest in both the experimental and mathematical sides of physical science, and in 1868 he purchased an outfit of scientific apparatus for independent research. In his first paper, published in 1869, he gave a lucid exposition of some aspects of the electromagnetic theory of James Clerk Maxwell, the Scottish physicist, in terms of analogies that the average man would understand. An attack of rheumatic fever shortly after his marriage in 1871 threatened his life for a time. A recuperative trip to Egypt was suggested, and Strutt took his bride, Evelyn Balfour, the sister of Arthur James Balfour, on a houseboat journey up the Nile for an extended winter holiday. On this excursion he began work on his great book

Humphrey joined the GEC-Marconi Research Centre in 1956 and has been Chief Engineer of the Analysis and Test Division since 1986. His scientific interests include stress and vibrational analysis, and heat transfer. Current research interests include the reliability of mechatronic systems and the use of advanced composites for structural applications This year [1992] sees the 150th anniversary of the birth of one of the greatest figures of nineteenth century mathematical physics, John William Strutt, Third Baron Rayleigh (fig. 1). Referred to by contemporary commentators as the last of the great Victorian polymaths, his contribution to science is exemplified by the frequency with which his name appears in the technical papers of today. Many notable scientific figures were elevated to the peerage because of their contribution to physics. There are, however, few examples of hereditary peers devoting their lives to physics with such outstanding success. Rayleigh was to make fundamental contributions to a wide spectrum of physics; apart perhaps from atomic physics, which began to flourish at the beginning of the 20th century. Rayleigh's contributions owed much to his powerful mathematical skills, which he exploited in characterizing a wide range of scientific phenomena. One can observe this in his work on acoustic waves and propagation, optical wave generation and propagation, and the propagation of disturbances in elastic solids, for example. His scientific output was prodigious, some 450 technical papers during his 50 year working life. The rate at which he was to produce his scientific papers - an average of nine per year - demonstrates the power of his imagination and intellect, which continued undiminished until his death in his 77th year.

John William Strutt, 3rd Baron Rayleigh Categories Nobel Prize in Physics winners From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. (Redirected from Lord Rayleigh John William Strutt, 3rd Baron Rayleigh November 12 June 30 ) was a British physicist who (with William Ramsay ) discovered the element argon , an achievement that earned him the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1904. Strutt was born in Langford Grove, Essex on November 12 . In his early years he suffered frailty and poor health. He began studying mathematics at Trinity College, Cambridge in 1861 and graduated in 1865. He was subsequently elected to a Fellowship of Trinity College. He held the post he held until he married Evelyn Balfour in 1871. In 1873 his father John James Strutt died, and the younger Strutt inherited the title of Lord Rayleigh.

His coach at Cambridge was Edward Routh who, in addition to being the most famous of the Cambridge coaches at that time (perhaps of all time), was himself a very fine applied mathematician making important contributions to dynamics. There is no doubt that the grounding in mathematical techniques which Rayleigh had from Routh was an important factor in his outstanding scientific career. It was more than just the mathematics which he learnt that was important to him, for in addition he learnt from Routh how to come up with the most appropriate mathematical methods to tackle each problem.
