  1. Ludvig Valentin Lorenz (Helsingør, 18 gennaio 1829 – 9 giugno 1891) è stato un fisico danese. Ha studiato la propagazione della luce attraverso un singolo mezzo omogeneo e il passaggio della luce tra due mezzi diversi.

  2. Ludvig Valentin Lorenz (/ ˈ l ɒr ən t s /; 18 January 1829 – 9 June 1891) was a Danish physicist and mathematician. He developed mathematical formulae to describe phenomena such as the relation between the refraction of light and the density of a pure transparent substance, and the relation between a metal's electrical and ...

    With some delay, Lorenz’s paper was carefully reviewed in the leading abstract journal, Fortschritte der Physik, established in 1845 by the German Physical Society. The reviewer, an “extraordinary” professor of physics and meteorology at the University of Bonn by the name Gustav Radicke, provided a fair and comprehensive summary of the new electric...

    Generally speaking, Lorenz’s theory aroused little interest in the physics community. It was known in the 1870s and 1880s but without attracting much attention compared to other theories such as those of Maxwell, Neumann, and Helmholtz. When Josiah Willard Gibbs during his tour to Europe 1866–1869 first encountered advanced electromagnetic theory, ...

    To use Lodge’s phrase, Lorenz’s electrodynamic theory of light was “brilliant,” a work of genius. However, it was isolated in the sense that he did not follow up upon it or seek to develop it in his later works. In 1869 Lorenz published his important work on refractivity leading to the Lorenz-Lorentz law, but without using his electrical light theo...

  3. 6 nov 2018 · In a new book, Helge Kragh delves into the history of the little known Danish scientist Ludvig Lorenz and rediscovers his contributions to science and why he should be remembered alongside other giants, like Niels Bohr.

  4. Lorenz, Ludwig (1829-1891) Danish physicist who explained the transmission of forces through fields using differential equations . He demonstrated that electrical forces were propagated at the speed of light .

  5. 30 lug 2019 · This paper offers background and perspective on a little-known memoir by Ludvig Lorenz on light scattering by spheres, which was published in Danish in 1890. It is a companion to an English translation of the memoir appearing separately.

  6. 12 ago 2018 · Ludvig Lorenz was Denmark's first theoretical physicist of international recognition. Despite his important contributions to a broad range of experimental and theoretical physics, he generally appears as a somewhat peripheral figure in histories of late-nineteenth-century physics and is completely overshadowed by his near-namesake H ...
