Professor of Physics Applied to Natural History was created for his father at the Museum d Histoire Naturelle, Edmund had the dilemma of choosing to attend TEcole Normale, I Ecole Polytechnique, or become an assistant to his father for the course that went with the professorship. He chose to assist his fatlier, and their collaboration continued for decades. Thus, his title on the title page of the hook published in 1855-1856 with his father is given as Professeur all Cousei vatoire imperial des Ai ts et Metiers, Aide-naturaliste au Museum d Histoire Naturelle, etc. After a short period as assistant at la. Sorhonne, and then as Professor at the Institut Agronomique de Versailles, he became Professor at the Cousei vatoire des Ai ts et Metiers in 1852, where he worked for almost forty years. When his father died in 1878, Edmond succeeded him as director of the Museum in addition to his professorship. He received a degree as Doctor of Science from the University of Paris in 1840, and was elected a member of I Academie des Sciences in 1863.

Alloys containing only a few per cent of zinc may fail if the stresses are high and the environment sufficiently corrosive. Most types of brass, besides the plain copper/zinc alloys, appear to be susceptible to stress corrosion. An extensive investigation of the effect of additions to 70/30 brass was carried out by Wilson, Edmunds, Anderson and Peirce , who found that about 1% Si was markedly beneficial. Other additions were beneficial under some circumstances and none of the 36 additions tested accelerated stress-corrosion cracking. Further results are given in later papers ... 

Soon after Bohr developed his initial configuration Arnold Sommerfeld in Munich realized the need to characterize the stationary states of the electron in the hydrogen atom by. means of a second quantum number—the so-called angular-momentum quantum number, Bohr immediately applied this discovery to many-electron atoms and in 1922 produced a set of more detailed electronic configurations. In turn, Sommerfeld went on to discover the third or inner, quantum number, thus enabling the British physicist Edmund Stoner to come up with an even more refined set of electronic configurations in 1924.
