"' Sir Joseph Larmor "'( 11 July 1857 19 May 1942 ) was a Northern Irish physicist and mathematician who made innovations in the understanding of electricity, dynamics, thermodynamics, and the electron theory of matter.

Augustin-Jean Fresnel proposed a correction due to the motion of a medium ( the aether ) through which light propagated, known as electron theory which featured an immobile aether, and he explained that objects contract in length as they move through the aether.

Later in 1985, it was found that using lithium cobalt oxide as the cathode and graphite as the anode produced an excellent secondary battery with enhanced stability, employing the frontier electron theory of Kenichi Fukui This enabled the development of portable devices, such as cell phones and laptops.

However, modern historians of science argue that Minkowski's claim for priority was unjustified, because Minkowski ( like Wien or Abraham ) adhered to the electromagnetic world-picture and apparently didn't fully understand the difference between Lorentz's electron theory and Einstein's kinematics.

Some contemporary historians of science have revived the question as to whether Einstein was possibly influenced by the ideas of Poincar? who first stated the relativity principle and applied it to electrodynamics, developing interpretations and modifications of Lorentz's electron theory that appear to have anticipated what is now called special relativity.

The term " strong correlation " refers to behavior of electrons in solids that is not well-described ( often not even in a qualitatively correct manner ) by simple one-electron theories such as the local-density approximation ( LDA ) of density-functional theory or Hartree Fock theory.

During his tenure at Yale, he developed the " Many Electron Theory of Atoms and Molecules " ( 1961 ), " Solvophobic Theory " ( 1964 ), " Network Theory of Coupled Chemical Reactions " ( 1974 ), " Microthermodynamic surface tension " ( 1981 ), and " Valency Interaction Formula Theory " ( 1983 ).

:p . 40 : " The cradle of special theory of relativity was the combination of Maxwellian electromagnetism and the electron theory of Lorentz ( and to a lesser extent of Larmor ) based on Fresnel's notion of the stationary aether . . . . It is well known that Einstein's special relativity was partially motivated by this failure [ to find the aether wind ], but in order to understand the originality of Einstein's 1905 work it is incumbent on us to review the work of the trailblazers, and in particular Michelson, FitzGerald, Lorentz, Larmor, and Poincar?
