Wikipedia notes that "it was not until the 19th century that the term scientist came into regular use," a term coined long after many of the people the atlas now calls scientists had already done their work. Browsing by era lets a visitor compare scientists active in the same period.19th centuryComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)19th centuryFilter Results44 entriesDisciplineAllChemistry (2)Materials Science (3)Particle Physics (2)Physics (24)Thermodynamics (5)Field (legacy)AllAtomic physics, quantum physics (1)Biology, physics (1)Chemistry and physics, mass spectrometry and isotopes (1)Electrical engineering (1)Kinetic Theory and Statistical Mechanics (1)low-temperature physics (1)Physics (12)Physics (atomic structure, spectroscopy, seismology) (1)Physics (glaciology, low-temperature science) (1)Physics (thermodynamics) (1)Physics and chemistry, radioactivity (1)Physics, atomic structure and mass spectrometry (1)Physics, cloud chamber and particle detection (1)Physics, optical interferometry (1)Physics, particularly optics and light scattering (1)Physics, spectroscopy (1)Statistical Mechanics (1)Thermodynamics (2)X-ray Crystallography (3)InstitutionAllCavendish Laboratory (2)Curie Institute (1)Indian Institute of Science (1)Institute for Advanced Study (1)Max Planck Society (1)University of Bonn (1)University of Glasgow (1)In GroupAllAtomic, Molecular And Optical Physics (6)Classical And Theoretical Physicists Before 1900 (8)Classical And Theoretical Physicists, 1900 to 1949 (8)Condensed Matter Physics (2)Nuclear Physics (4)Other Physics (2)Particle And High-Energy Physics (2)Quantum Physics And Quantum Information (7)Thermodynamics And Statistical Mechanics (5)NationalityAllFrance (1)Germany (1)India (1)Ireland (1)Japan (2)United States (1)BrowseCompareSelect all 44Albert A.
