Anders Jonas Angstrom
 
Anders Jonas Ångström, (born Aug. 13, 1814, Lögdö, Swed.—died June 21, 1874, Uppsala), Swedish physicist, a founder of spectroscopy for whom the angstrom, a unit of length equal to 10-10 metre, was named.
Educated at the University of Uppsala, Ångström became privatdocent (lecturer) there in 1839 and succeeded to the chairmanship of the physics department in 1858. In 1843 he became observer at Uppsala Observatory.
Ångström’s most important work concerned heat conduction and spectroscopy. He devised a method of measuring thermal conductivity, showing it to be proportional to electrical conductivity. In 1853 he pointed out that the electric spark yields two superposed spectra, one from the metal of the electrode and the other from the gas through which it passes. From Euler’s resonance theory Ångström deduced a principle of spectrum analysis: that an incandescent gas emits rays of the same refrangibility as those it can absorb.
Ångström’s studies of the solar spectrum led to his discovery, announced in 1862, that hydrogen is present in the Sun’s atmosphere. In 1868 was published his great map of the normal solar spectrum, which long remained authoritative. He was the first, in 1867, to examine the spectrum of the Aurora Borealis and to detect and measure the characteristic bright line in its yellow-green region, but he was mistaken in supposing that this same line is also to be seen in the zodiacal light.
Ångström’s son Knut Johan Ångström was also a physicist who worked in spectroscopy and taught at the University of Uppsala.
