  • Hendrik Antoon Lorentz: His Role in Physics and Society
    IOP PUBLISHING JOURNAL OF PHYSICS: CONDENSED MATTER J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 21 (2009) 164223 (8pp) doi:10.1088/0953-8984/21/16/164223 Hendrik Antoon Lorentz: his role in physics and society Frits Berends Emeritus Theoretical Physics, Leiden University, The Netherlands Received 22 January 2009 Published 31 March 2009 Online at stacks.iop.org/JPhysCM/21/164223 Abstract Hendrik Antoon Lorentz (1853–1928) was appointed in 1878 to a chair of theoretical physics at the University of Leiden, one of the first of such chairs in the world. A few years later Heike Kamerlingh Onnes became his experimental colleague, after vehement discussions in the faculty. Lorentz strongly supported Kamerlingh Onnes then, and proved subsequently to be an ideal colleague. With Lorentz’s electron theory the classical theory of electromagnetism obtained its final form, at the time often called the Maxwell–Lorentz theory. In this theory the Zeeman effect could be explained: the first glimpse of the electron. The Nobel Prize followed in 1902. The Lorentz transformation, established in 1904, preceded the special theory of relativity. Later on, Lorentz played a much admired role in the debate on the new developments in physics, in particular as chairman of a series of Solvay conferences. Gradually his stature outside of physics grew, both nationally as chairman of the Zuiderzee committee and internationally as president of the International Commission on Intellectual Cooperation of the League of Nations. At his funeral the overwhelming tribute was the recognition of his unique greatness. Einstein said about him ‘He meant more to me personally than anyone else I have met on my life’s journey’.

  • A Preliminary Digital Analysis of Christiaan Huygens' Last
    JLIS.it 9, 2 (May 2018) ISSN: 2038-1026 online Open access article licensed under CC-BY DOI: 10.4403/jlis.it-12449 Language as Scientific Instrument: a Preliminary Digital Analysis of Christiaan Huygens’ Last Writings and Correspondence Ludovica Marinucci(a) a) University of Cagliari, Italy __________ Contact: Ludovica Marinucci, [email protected] Received: 29 October 2017; Accepted: 12 February 2018; First Published: 15 May 2018 __________ ABSTRACT This essay focuses on a digital text analysis with AntConc computational linguistics tool in order to find, list and compare the most important key word occurrences and their collocations in some of Christiaan Huygens last writings, from 1686 to 1695 and posthumous. The greatest attention is payed to three key words – Animus, Potentia and Lex – related to the themes of God’s power, divine and human intelligence, probabilistic epistemology, natural theology and plurality of worlds. In addition, these key words are used to select the letters written by Huygens to the most important of his contemporaries on the same topics. This challenge firstly involves demonstrating that his last writings on philosophical and theological reflections on mechanistic philosophy are not an anomaly within Huygens’ wider work, and secondly showing that these are indications of Huygens’ involvement in a number of theoretical debates in the second half of the seventeenth century. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to express my very great appreciation to Dr Charles van den Heuvel, Eric Jorink and Peter Boot (Huygens ING) for including me in their research activities. In addition, Dr Walter Ravenek, developer of the ePistolarium tool, provided me with very valuable assistance in the database’s collection of Huygens’ correspondence.

  • The Future of Art & Science Collaborations
    The Future of Art & Science collaborations waag.org/en/project/future-art-science-collaborations Project Luca di Tommaso 2012 The Future of Art & Science Collaborations is a series of lectures by eminent international researchers and practitioners in the field where art and science interact. The first lectures series was held in October 2013, when the presentations took place at institutions that position themselves in the midst of the development of art & science interactions in Leiden, The Hague and Amsterdam. This series was an initiative of The Netherlands Study Centre for Technology Trends, in collaboration with Waag Society, the Royal Academy of Arts, Leiden Institute of Advanced Computer Science, The Arts & Genomics Centre and Rijksakademie van beeldende kunsten, Museum Boerhaave and Hortus botanicus Leiden. Watch the videos of the lectures here This first series of Future of Art & Science Collaborations was realized with the financial support from Creative Industries Fund, Mondriaan Fund and Stichting Doen. Living tissues and living issues Living tissues and living issues was a second series in February 2014 of three evenings presented by the Open Wetlab, that looked at how technology shapes new relations between organisms and in turn how technology is shaped by those organisms. From an artistic, academic and sociopolitical perspective we looked at issues of hybridity, performativity and food as these seemingly unrelated topics have a very strong influence on how we perceive the Other and each other in modern society.

    Light Geometrical Optics Newton treated light as corpuscular – a beam of particles (photons) Huygens later showed light could be treated as waves – gave same results but can be more useful (interference effects) Christiaan Huygens(1629 – 1695) was a Dutch physicist, mathematician, astronomer and inventor, who is widely regarded as one of the greatest scientists of all time and a major figure in the scientific revolution. In physics, Huygens made groundbreaking contributions in optics and mechanics, while as an astronomer he is chiefly known for his studies of the rings of Saturn and the discovery of its moon Titan. As an inventor, he improved the design of the telescope with the invention of the Huygenian eyepiece. His most famous invention, however, was the invention of the pendulum clock in 1656, which was a breakthrough in timekeeping and became the most accurate timekeeper for almost 300 years. Because he was the first to use mathematical formulae to describe the laws of physics, Huygens has been called the first theoretical physicist and the founder of mathematical physics.

Tel: 31-15-2782421; ∗ + E-mail: [email protected] One sentence summary: The story and fate of van Leeuwenhoek’s microscopes and other lenses as revealed by primary and historical secondary documents are reviewed. Editor: Rich Boden ABSTRACT When Antonie van Leeuwenhoek died, he left over 500 simple microscopes, aalkijkers (an adaption of his microscope to allow the examination of blood circulation in the tails of small eels) and lenses, yet now there are only 10 microscopes with a claim to being authentic, one possible aalkijker and six lenses. He made microscopes with more than one lens, and possibly three forms of the aalkijker. This paper attempts to establish exactly what he left and trace the fate of some of the others using the earliest possible documents and publications.

    News, Notes, and Queries SYMPOSIUM Museum Boerhaave, Leiden, September 1991 In September 1991 the Sir Thomas Browne Institute and the Department of Medical History ofthe Leiden University, in co-operation with the Leiden Museum Boerhaave, intend to organize a three-day symposium on the subject of scientific communication and exchange between Great Britain and Europe during the seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries. The conference will be held in the Museum Boerhaave, which in 1991 re-opens to the public on the new premises of the historic Caecilia Hospital. The symposium will focus on four main questions: 1. How did the diffusion of new theories in the natural sciences from England to the Continent and vice versa take place? 2. What circuits of communication were in operation? 3. How was scientific knowledge and information, including know-how and new technologies transferred? 4. What was the role of the individual in this scientific exchange? Papers will be presented by a number of speakers from various European countries. Further details can be obtained from Mrs M. Fournier, Museum Boerhaave, P.O.
