Per Wikipedia Sir James Hopwood Jeans Om Frs 1877 - 1946 Was An English Physicist Mathematician And An Astronomer. He Served As A Secretary Of The Royal Society From 1919 To 1929 And Was The President Of The Royal Astronomical Society From 1925 To 1927 And Won Its Gold Medal.Jeans Was Elected Fellow Of Trinity College In October 1901 And Taught At Cambridge But Went To Princeton University In 1904 As A Professor Of Applied Mathematics. He Returned To Cambridge In 1910. From 1923 To 1944 He Was Associated With Caltech's Mount Wilson Observatory. He Made Important Contributions In Many Areas Of Physics Including Quantum Theory The Theory Of Radiation And Stellar Evolution. Jeans Along With Arthur Eddington Is A Founder Of British Cosmology. His Scientific Reputation Is Grounded In The Monographs The Dynamical Theory Of Gases 1904 Theoretical Mechanics 1906 And Mathematical Theory Of Electricity And Magnetism 1908. After Retiring In 1929 He Wrote A Number Of Books For The Lay Public. One Of Jeans's Major Discoveries Named The Jeans Length Is A Critical Radius Of An Interstellar Cloud In Space. It Depends On The Temperature And Density Of The Cloud And The Mass Of The Particles Composing The Cloud. A Cloud That Is Smaller Than Its Jeans Length Will Not Have Sufficient Gravity To Overcome The Repulsive Gas Pressure Forces And Condense To Form A Star Whereas A Cloud That Is Larger Than Its Jeans Length Will Collapse. Jeans Came Up With Another Version Of This Equation Called The Jeans Mass Or The Jeans Instability That Solves For The Critical Mass A Cloud Must Attain Before Being Able To Collapse. Jeans Also Helped To Discover The Rayleigh-Jeans Law Which Relates The Energy Density Of Black-Body Radiation To The Temperature Of The Emission Source. Jeans Is Also Credited With Calculating The Rate Of Atmospheric Escape From A Planet Due To Kinetic Energy Of The Gas Molecules A Process Known As Jeans Escape.

Richard Wilson 1926- Is A British Born American Physicist. His Original Fields Were Nuclear And Elementary Particle Physics But Branched Out Into Applications Of Physics In Other Disciplines. He Is Now Mallinckrodt Professor Of Physics Emeritus. At Harvard University.He Has Lectured In 44 Different Countries. In 1988 He Became A Member Of The Science Advisory Board Of The Atlantic Legal Foundation A Public Interest Law Foundation. Wilson's First Research Was On The Properties Of The Nucleon. He Started By Using Radioactive Sources And Then Using First The Cyclotron At Aere Harwell Uk Then The Cyclotron At Harvard University Usa. This Work Is Described In Many Papers And In This Book. At Harvard He Became An Enthusiastic Supporter Of The Cambridge Electron Accelerator And Was Chairman Of The Management Committee From 1961 To 1968. He Became Known For His Work On Nucleon Form Factors An Interest Which Continues. He Was A Trustee Of The Universities Research Association From 1987 To 1993 And Studied The Inelastic Form Factors. Wilson Was An Early Proponent Of Electron-Positron Colliding Beams. And Worked Thereon In Frascati Cea And Cornell University. In 1991 He Realized That The General Public Was No Longer Automatically Supporting Physicists And Began A Career Explaining The Positive Aspects Of Radiation Use As Well As Its Risks And Dangers. In This He Used The "Hands On" Style Of An Experimental Physicist And Soon Became An Expert On Nuclear Accidents: Three Mile Island Chernobyl & Fukushima. He Is Particularly Known For His Visits To Chernobyl Being The First American Scientist To Go To The Plant And Measure Radioactivity Levels Thereby Exposing Himself To The Dangers. He Expanded His Interests To Other Hazards And Thereby Helped To Found The Field Of Risk Analysis. In This Work He Realized That While It Is Interesting What Scientists Say In Their Conferences; The Us Public Is More Concerned About Of What Congress Enacts In Response And Most To Importantly What The Courts Said Last Week. This Realization Has Led To An Activity On Emphasizing To The Courts The Fundamental Thinking Of A Physicist. This Includes The Role Of Expert Witnesses In Court Cases.
