Callender, Hugh Longbourn
Callender, Hugh Longbourne

English physicist (1863 - 1930)
Callender learned in Cambridge, then worked as a professor of physics at McFel University in Montreal, then at University College in London, then at the Imperial College of Science. He made several studies on steam machines, and participated with Barnes in a series of experiments to determine the specific heat of water. Also, one of Calender's accomplishments is that he designed a constant pressure pneumatic thermometer, with which he was able to measure up to four hundred and fifty degrees Celsius, with an accuracy of not less than one-tenth (tenth). degree · He also designed a platinum thermometer that works on the principle of electrical resistance.

⏹ Canton, John,

British physicist (1718 - 1772)
Canton began his life working as an employee for a weaver, but he showed special interests in scientific issues that attracted him towards studies, so he graduated in it until he reached the director of a school.
. Canton studied magnetism, electrostatics, and the phosphorescence property of the sea, which he continued to investigate until the stage of decomposition of animal matter. He was able to prove practically the possibility of water compression. In the field of electricity, he was the first to explain the electrification of air and the first to verify Franklin's hypothesis about the phenomenon of lightning.
Canton recorded a number of inventions, including the Electroscope and Electrometre. He was chosen as a member of the Royal Society and won the Copley Medal.

⏹ Candol, Augustin Biram D
Candolle, Augustin Pyrame de

Swiss botanist (1778-1841)
Candoll received his education in Geneva and made several achievements in the study of botany, as he dedicated a new system of botanical classification different from the Linnaeus classification (see Linnaeus from 1707 to 1778).

⏹ Kanitsaro, Stanislaw
Canizzaro, Stanislau

Italian chemist (1826 - 1910)
Cannizzaro learned medicine and chemistry in Palermo and Naples. Then he became a professor of chemistry in Genoa, Palermo and Rome. He was awarded the Copley Medal. Cannitsaro was the first to realize the importance of Avogadro's studies with regard to atomic weights.
He has important studies in chemistry, especially organic. He attended a number of compounds and discovered the reaction named after him: «Kanitasaro reaction, ·
He stood by the national leader Garibaldi during the events of the modern Italian unity.

⏹ Cahour, Auguste

French chemist (1813 - 1891)
Kawer worked in organic chemistry and taught chemistry in Paris. Kaur is best known for his discovery of amyl alcohol (0 C5 H12).
And the allylic alcohol (Propinol) 2 C3H6O, CHCHCH2OH and «anisole, (C7H8O).

⏹ Cayley, Arthur

English mathematician (1821 - 1895)
Kylie was educated in Cambridge and gradually rose in educational positions until he was chosen as a professor of mathematics in Cambridge.
Cayley developed the theory of matrices, and his studies on group theory and other mathematical topics related to dynamics and astronomy were of great importance in the development of mathematics.
Kylie had a very prestigious social status and so was his scholarly position.

⏹ Caius, John (KOK)
Caius , John ( Key or Kaye )

English physician (1510 - 1573)
. Caius learned in Gonville Hall in Cambridge as he learned in Padua at the hands of Vesalius (Vesalius) and worked as a doctor for Edward VI and Queens Mary and Elizabeth · Caius expanded Gonville Hall and established Caius College and expanded the study of anatomy in it, as a result of providing two bodies annually from those sentenced to death.
