Stokes, George Gabriel (18191903) Stokes, one of the most influential scientific figures of his century, was Lucasian professor of mathematics at Cambridge University from 1849 until his death in 1903. His theoretical and experimental investigations covered hydrodynamics, elasticity, light, gravity, sound, heat, meteorology, and solar physics. He left electricity and magnetism to his friend Lord Kelvin. It is another one of those delightful quirks of history that the theorem that we call Stokes’ theorem isn’t his theorem at all. He learned of it from Thomson in 1850 and a few years later included it among questions on an examination. It has been known as Stokes’ theorem ever since. As usual, things balanced out. Stokes was the original discover of the principles of spectrum analysis that we now credit to Bunsen and Kirchhoff.

Stokes, George Gabriel Irish physicist who studied the viscosity (resistance to relative motion) of fluids. This culminated in Stokes' law, F = 6rv, which applies to a force acting on a sphere falling through a liquid, where is the liquid's viscosity and r and v are the radius and velocity of the sphere. In 1852 Stokes gave the first explanation of the phenomenon of fluorescence, a term he coined. He noticed that ultraviolet light was being absorbed and then re-emitted as visible light. This led him to use fluorescence as a method to study ultraviolet spectra. Stokes was born in Sligo, Ireland; he studied at Cambridge, where he became professor of mathematics 1849. Stokes's investigation into fluid dynamics in the late 1840s led him to consider the problem of the ether, the hypothetical medium for the propagation of light waves. He showed that the laws of optics held if the Earth pulled the ether with it in its motion through space, and from this he assumed the ether to be an elastic substance that flowed with the Earth. Stokes realized in 1854 that the Sun's spectrum is made up of spectra of the elements it contains. He concluded that the dark Fraunhofer lines are the spectral lines of elements absorbing light in the Sun's outer layers.

Cycles From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Cycles are series of conditions that repeat themselves, usually after a regular or nearly regular period Cycles may be due to restorative forces causing repetition as in simple harmonic motion , regularity of motion such as daily, monthly, yearly, and other astronomical cycles , or being affected by something else that has these qualities. These forces may be physical, biological, economic or social. Stonehenge is considered to have been used to predict eclipses , and is perhaps the earliest knowledge that we have of human interest in cycles. Other early studies of cycles are found in Vedic Buddhist and Christian sacred books. Pythagoras ' study of music and Ptolemy 's motion of the planets were early scientific studies of cycles. Early studies of cycles were generally related to astronomical, astrological and weather and climatic cycles. Copernicus Tycho Brahe Kepler Newton and Einstein contributed to ever refined understanding of the motion of the planets. In modern times economic cycles were studied by Joseph Kitchen Clement Juglar Simon Kuznets and Nikolai Kondratieff , each of whom has an economic cycle named after them. There has been debate about the reality of some economic cycles.

A D V E N T U R E S in C Y B E R S O U N D George Gabriel Stokes, Sir : 1819 - 1903 George Gabriel Stokes, (b. Skreen, County Sligo, Ireland, Aug. 13, 1819, d. Feb. 1, 1903), was a British physicist and mathematician whose law of viscosity (1851), describing the movement of a small sphere through a viscous fluid, established the science of hydrodynamics. He investigated the wave theory of light, named and explained the phenomenon of fluorescence in 1852, and in 1854 theorized an explanation of the Fraunhofer lines in the solar spectrum. Stokes developed mathematical techniques for application to physical problems, founded the science of geodesy, and greatly advanced the study of mathematical physics in England. Richard Hirsh Source: The New Grolier Multimedia Encylopedia George Stokes (Born: 13 Aug 1819 in Skreen, County Sligo, Ireland Died: 1 Feb 1903 in Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, England) established the science of hydrodynamics with his law of viscosity. Stokes published papers on the motion of incompressible fluids in 1842-43 and on the friction of fluids in motion and the equilibrium and motion of elastic solids in 1845. In 1849 Stokes was appointed Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge. In 1851 Stokes was elected to the Royal Society and was secretary of the Society from 1854 to 1884 when he was elected president.
