   Extractions: Robert Andrews Millikan Robert Andrews Millikan was born on the 22nd of March, 1868, in Morrison, Ill. (U.S.A.), as the second son of the Reverend Silas Franklin Millikan and Mary Jane Andrews. His grandparents were of the Old New England stock which had come to America before 1750, and were pioneer settlers in the Middle West. After working for a short time as a court reporter, he entered Oberlin College (Ohio) in 1886. During his undergraduate course his favorite subjects were Greek and mathematics; but after his graduation in 1891 he took, for two years, a teaching post in elementary physics. It was during this period that he developed his interest in the subject in which he was later to excel. In 1893, after obtaining his mastership in physics, he was appointed Fellow in Physics at Columbia University. He afterwards received his Ph.D. (1895) for research on the polarization of light emitted by incandescent surfaces - using for this purpose molten gold and silver at the U.S. Mint. On the instigation of his professors, Millikan spent a year in Germany, at the Universities of Berlin and Göttingen. He returned at the invitation of A. A. Michelson, to become assistant at the newly established Ryerson Laboratory at the University of Chicago (1896). Millikan was an eminent teacher, and passing through the customary grades he became professor at that university in 1910, a post which he retained till 1921. During his early years at Chicago he spent much time preparing textbooks and simplifying the teaching of physics. He was author or co-author an impressive series of books.

Robert's grandparents were of Scotish-irish ancestry which had come to America before 1750, and were pioneer settlers in the Middle West. His family moved, when he was five, to Iowa. He led a rural existence in childhood, attending the Maquoketa High School (Iowa). He helped around the farm and at 14 he was working ten-hour days during the summers at a local barrelhead factory, earning only a dolar a day.

For this work, as well as for his work on the photoelectric effect, he received the Nobel Prize for physics in 1923. Millikan was affiliated with the University of Chicago (1896-1921) and the California Institute of Technology (1921-53).

   Extractions: Robert Andrews Millikan (22. bøezna 1868 - 19. prosince 1953) Nobelovu cenu získal v roce 1923 za práce o elementárním elektrickém náboji a fotoelektrickém jevu. Americký fyzik Robert Andrews Millikan se narodil v roce 1868 v rodinì profesora organické chemie. Millikan studoval fyziku u známého fyzika M. Pupina na Columbijské univerzitì v New Yorku, kde také získal doktorát. V letech 1910 – 1921 byl profesorem na univerzitì v Chicagu a v roce 1921 se stal øeditelem fyzikální laboratoøe v Pasadenì. Millikan byl velice èinorodý èlovìk, který se zabýval problémy mechaniky, molekulární fyziky, termofyziky, elektøiny, akustiky a optiky. Tìžištìm jeho zájmu však bylo mìøení elektrického náboje elektronu, pøímé urèení kvanta záøení, studium Brownova pohybu v plynech, expanze ultrafialového spektra a pohybové zákony èástic, které dopadají z atmosféry na povrch Zemì. V letech 1913 – 1917 Millikan prokázal Thomsonùv pøedpoklad, že hmotnost vodíkového iontu je asi dvìstìkrát vìtší než hmotnost elektronu. Vyrobil speciální Millikanùv kondenzátor, kterým mìøil elektrické náboje malých olejových kapièek, a zjistil, že náboj elektronu je elementárním kvantem jakéhokoliv elektrického náboje. Experimentálnì také stanovil velikost kinetické energie, kterou z povrchu kovu „vytrhávᓠsvìtlo urèité frekvence, èímž objevil pøemìnu svìtelné energie na energii elektrickou. Vìnoval se i mìøení Planckovy konstanty, kterou urèil na základì mìøení frekvence a energie elektronù, pøièemž vyšel z fotoelektrického efektu.

    Extractions: But it was as a teacher and textbook writer that Millikan first made his mark. In collaboration he wrote elementary texts that educated a generation of Americans, and in the classroom he proved to be an outstanding educator. These qualities were valued at Chicago, but not as much as research. Millikan was appointed associate professor only at the age of 38, in a time when the median American physicist became a full professor at the age of 32. He later recalled: "Although I had for ten years spent on research every hour I could spare from my other pressing duties, by 1906 I knew that I had not yet published results of outstanding importance, and certainly had not attained a position of much distinction as a research physicist." He thought of devoting himself wholly to education. But instead he stopped writing textbooks and set out on one last try at a new line of research: the determination of the elementary unit of electric charge. His fame was enhanced by continuing scientific work—above all his studies of the phenomenon he named "cosmic rays". He stubbornly insisted that these rays consisted in whole or in large part of electromagnetic radiation, but this error did not prevent him from performing or inspiring much work of basic importance. With his collaborator Ira Bowen he meanwhile opened up the field of vacuum ultraviolet spectroscopy. At the same time he continued his outstanding contributions to education, helping administer Caltech and personally attracting and inspiring a constant stream of students.

    Extractions: Millikan By courtesy of Caltech, Pasadena, Calif. (b. March 22, 1868, Morrison, Ill., U.S.d. Dec. 19, 1953, San Marino, Calif.), American physicist honoured with the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1923 for his study of the elementary electronic charge and the photoelectric effect. Millikan graduated from Oberlin College (Oberlin, Ohio) in 1891 and obtained his doctorate at Columbia University in 1895. In 1896 he became an assistant at the University of Chicago, where he became a full professor in 1910. In 1909 Millikan began a series of experiments to determine the electric charge carried by a single electron. He began by measuring the course of charged water droplets in an electrical field. The results suggested that the charge on the droplets is a multiple of the elementary electric charge, but the experiment was not accurate enough to be convincing. He obtained more precise results in 1910 with his famous oil-drop experiment , in which he replaced water (which tended to evaporate too quickly) with oil. In 1916 he took up with similar skill the experimental verification of the equation introduced by Albert Einstein in 1905 to describe the photoelectric effect. He used this same research to obtain an exact value of Planck's constant.
