Title: | Great Astronomers: William Rowan Hamilton |
Authors: | Robert Stawell Ball |
Issue Date: | 1907 |
Abstract: | Sir William Rowan Hamilton (1805–1865) was an Irish physicist, astronomer, and mathematician who made important contributions to mechanics, optics, and algebra. As a teenager, he mastered parts of Newton's Principia and studied Laplace's celestial mechanics treatise. When barely 22, Hamilton became a professor of astronomy at University of Dublin, however he was more interested in theoretical rather than practical astronomy. |
