珍贵的启迪——英国几位杰出物理学家的成就及失误的思考

PRECIOUS ENLIGHTENMENT -A Careful consideration on the scientific achievement and failure of some outstanding English physicists.

英国杰出的物理学家:开尔文勋爵、瑞利勋爵、卢瑟福勋爵在物理学上都有辉煌的成就。但在19世纪末20世纪初的物理学深刻的革命中,他们落后了,尽管英国当时有设备完善世界注目的实验中心,但未能建立象牛顿、麦克斯韦那样的理论,思考这当中的原由,是有极珍贵的启迪!

The English famous physicsts Lord Kelvin. Lord Rayleigh and Lord Rutherford have made brilliant contributions in physics, but they had fallen behind in the profound revofution of the physics in the late 19th and early 20th century. Although in England they had perfect laboratory egipments, which was the experiment centre in the world, they had not devoloped the theory as Netow and Mexwell had dome. After much thought on them we get precious enlightenment!
