Georg Ohm
Georg Simon Ohm , (born the March 16th 1789 with Erlangen Germany - died the July 6th 1854 with Munich), is a German Physicien having studied at the university of Erlangen.
He becomes professor of Mathématiques at the university Jesuit of Cologne in 1817 and at the polytechnic school of Nuremberg in 1833, then in 1852 he becomes professor of experimental physics at the university of Munich, city where he died in 1854.
Work and publication
Its writings are numerous. Most important was its lampoon published with Berlin in 1827, with the title Die galvanische Kette mathematisch bearbeitet . This publication, whose first steps appeared during the two previous years in the newspapers of Schweigger and Poggendorff, exerted an important influence on the developments of the theory and the applications of the electric current. Its name was introduced into the Terminologie of the electricity in the law of ohm, which is the proportionality between the intensity and the tension in a resistance. Regulate adopted like the international unit IF of the Electrical resistance, the Ohm (symbol Ω).The Royal Society decrees the to him Médaille Copley in 1841.
