please join us for the 2010 George Sarton Memorial Lecture in the History and Philosophy of Science at the American Association for the Advancement of Science San Diego, California 20 February, 2010, 12:30–1:15 pm the ORIGINS of EXPERIMENTAL ERROR presented by Jed Z. Buchwald California Institute of Technology

In the mid 1750s, the English mathematician Thomas Simpson tried to convince astronomers that it was a good idea to average multiple measurements. He had much work to do, because neither astronomers nor physicists were in the habit of combining multiple measurements to produce a best final value. In fact, the first one to do so had been Isaac Newton, who for the most part, hid his techniques. How then did experimenters and observers work with discrepant data before statistical methods became common at the beginning of the 19th Century? We will tour the worlds of Tycho Brahe, Robert Hooke, Johannes Hevelius Newton, and others to see how they worked with measured data.
