⏹ Bilby, Sir George Thomas
Beilby, Sir George Thomas

Scottish chemist (1850-1924).
Bilby learned in Edinburgh, then worked as an industrial chemist, so he invented a new method for distilling shale oil (oil) from shale mudstone.
Bilby made great progress in the alkali cyanide industry, and set up the first factory for this purpose in Leith. Bilby was chosen as a Fellow of the Royal Society and was the founder of the East Greenwich Oil Research Station.

⏹ Belon, Pierre Belon, Pierre

French naturalist (1517-1564).
Bellon learned medicine in Paris and made many trips in southeastern Europe and Asia Minor. He introduced the cedar tree to France and left a number of books on natural history that were of particular importance.
Billon's life ended at the hands of some thieves while he was collecting some plants late at night, when he was killed.

⏹ Billy Edward Charles Cyril
Baly Edward Charles Cyril

English chemist (1871 - 1948).
Bailey studied at the University College in London, then worked as an assistant professor of chemistry there, as a professor of inorganic chemistry in Liverpool. Bailey has been elected a Fellow of the Royal Society.
Bailey was able to show by direct experiment that small quantities of sugars and other organic substances are formed, and from a mixture of some substances such as water and its gas, carbon dioxide and ammonia.

⏹ Bailey, Francis
Francis Bailey,

English astronomer (1774 - 1844).
Billy began his life as a businessman with a strong penchant for adventure, then he embarked on studying astronomy during the period of his retirement from the aforementioned activities, when he was fifty-one years old.
He was included in knowledge, experience, and research, so he occupied the position of President of the Royal Astronomical Society at the end of his days. • Baily noticed the so-called Baily beads that appear during a solar eclipse.
Bailey calculated the specific weight of the globe using the Cavendish method, and he reached a value of 5.66 grams per cubic centimeter.

⏹ Bellis, Sir William Madoc
Bayliss, Sir William Maddock

English physiologist (1860-1924).
Bellis trained as a medical student at University College London and specialized in physiology, having researched this field for thirty-five years.
His most prominent research was on the phenomenon of electrical impulse in the work of the heart and neuromechanics. In collaboration with Starling of the Viscera (Starling 1866-1927), he discovered the “hormone secretin, which is responsible for the secretions of the pancreas.”
Bellis has written a book entitled: Principles of General Physiology (General Physiology). Bellis was chosen as a Fellow of the British Royal Society and received the Copley Medal.

⏹ Benyden, Edward Van
Beneden, Edward Van

Belgian cytologist (1846-1910) •
Beneden conducted extensive research on the phenomenon of reproduction, and he concluded that the number of colored (chromosomes) is equal in every cell of the same body. And that this number may have been unique to each variety • Benny Dunn has shown that this number decreases during certain stages of cell division and regains its number during the sexual stage. His work was published in 1887.

⏹ Binet, Alfred and Binet

French physiologist (1857-1911).
Binet received his education in Paris, where he studied natural science, then worked as a director of physiological psychology at the Sorbonne. Binet has left several books on the science of experimental breathing, as well as studies in hypnosis and suggestion.

⏹ Pew, Jean-Baptiste
Biot, Jean Baptiste

French mathematician and physicist (1774-1862).
Bio worked as a professor of physics at the College de France, and also worked as a professor of astronomy at the University of Paris.
Bio discovered the circular polarization of light, and invented a device to measure and study optical polarization by reflection.
In joint research with Brewster, he discovered the biaxial crystals (with two optical axes), and he also participated with Savart in discovering the law related to the force in the magnetic field around a straight current. In the field of meteorological studies, Bio participated with Gay-Lussac in a balloon flight to study weather conditions, as well as the behavior of the magnetic compass at high altitudes.
