Stokes, George

Stokes, George Gabriel, born 13 August 1819, died 1 February 1903, was Professor of Mathematics in Cambridge when Rayleigh was an undergraduate. 

Sir George Gabriel Stokes, 1819-1903. English mathematician and physicist, professor in Cambridge. 

Claude Louis Navier (1785-1836) was a French scientist who, using molecular arguments, derived the equation in 1882 George Gabriel Stokes (1819-1903) was a British physicist who made many contributions to the theory of viscous flow in the period 1845-1850. 

Thus, the emission spectrum has its maximum shifted to longer wavelengths compared to the maximum of absorption spectrum (Figure 7.3). Sir George Stokes observed this shift for the first time in 1852 and since this time it is called the Stokes shift. 

Stokes-Einstein equation — George Gabriel Stokes (1819-1903) deduced an expression for the frictional coefficient (/s) in liquids [i] ... 

Another important relationship used to describe the movement of a heavier solid object through a fluid was derived by Sir George Stokes. In the case that the object is a sphere, the viscous drag or force on it in the direction opposite to its movement is... 

We will see in Chapter 11 that in 1850 the British physicist Sir George Gabriel Stokes (1819-1903) proposed a very simple relationship between the diffusion coefficient D and the radius r of the diffusing molecule, on the assumption that it is. spherical. Stokes s law is... 

Most theoretical treatments of ionic conductance have been based on an equation published well over a century ago by Sir George Stokes " although it was not applied to ions until much later. Stokes derived hydrodynamically the steady-state velocity with which a large sphere... 

Stokes, Sir George Gabriel (1819-1903) was Master of Pembroke College, Cambridge, Lucasian Professor of Mathematics (a position once held by Sir Isaac Newton and now held by Stephen Hawking), and a former President of the Royal Society. Stokes was one of the foremost mathematicians of his time and established the field of hydrodynamics.
