Rachet d'Everard (physicist): Difference between revisions

Professor Doctor [[Barons of Yonderre|Baron]] '''Rachet Hercule Peter d'Everard''' <small>[[Order of the Kestrel|OC]]</small> (December 3, 1838 – February 13, 1922) was a [[Yonderre|Yonderian]] physicist, chemist and [[Nobility in Yonderre|nobleman]] who discovered that electric currents create magnetic fields, which was the first connection found between electricity and magnetism. He also developed mathematical formulae to describe phenomena such as the relation between the refraction of light and the density of a pure transparent substance and the relation between a metal's electrical and thermal conductivity and temperature. A leader of the [[Yonderian Golden Age]], d'Everard made several discoveries in the field of physics and served as a professor at the [[University of Collinebourg]].
