Happy Birthday, Jimmy Carter – Der Rock-’n‘-Roll-Präsident (2020)

„Wie kein zweiter US-Politiker begeisterte sich Jimmy Carter öffentlich für Popmusik. Mit Unterstützung von Stars wie Bob Dylan konnte sich der demokratische Kandidat bei den US-Wahlen 1977 gegen den Republikaner Gerald Ford durchsetzen.“ (ARTE)

In 1803 #JohnDalton used the Laws of #Chemistry to propose the modern #AtomicTheory. It marks the birth of #QuantumTheory. (Dalton quantized mass a century before #MaxPlanck quantized energy.)

In 1914, #HenryMoseley used the X-ray emmisions of atoms to propose the quantization of #AtomicStructure.

Sadly, #Moseley was killed by a sniper a year later in the Battle of #Gallipoli in #Turkey. https://theconversation.com/how-science-lost-one-of-its-greatest-minds-in-the-trenches-of-gallipoli-45890

@mariapopova I believe you correctly surmise “how staggered (Emily Dickinson’s) pliant young mind must have been to learn that scientists had just proven the existence of atoms.”

But #physicists didn’t accept the #AtomicTheory until #AlbertEinstein demonstrated its verity through Brownian motion over a *century* after #JohnDalton proposed it.

Both ‘particle #chemistry ‘ and #QuantumChemistry predate their #physics counterparts by a century since Dalton quantized *mass*!

@gutenberg_org Yes, #HappyBirthday 🎂 to #physicist #MaxPlanck , who in 1900 was the founder of the #QuantumTheory - of #energy.

But a century earlier, using empirical data from 18th century #chemistry , #chemist #JohnDalton correctly postulated what could be called the #QuantumTheory of mass when he resurrected and modernized the #AncientGreek #philosophy of #Atomism attributed to #Democritus. #Histodons

@mcnees Yes, #MaxPlanck correctly hypothesized that energy is quantized in 1900, and this is properly celebrated on #QuantumDay. 👏

But #JohnDalton had hypothesized, and just as correctly, that *mass* is quantized almost 100 years earlier when he published his #AtomicTheory. 👏

@gutenberg_org OTD in 1900, #MaxPlanck introduced the concept of *energy* quanta. ✅

But #JohnDalton introduced the concept of *mass* quanta almost a century earlier when he proposed the modern #AtomicTheory. 🤷🏻‍♂️

@gutenberg_org British chemist #JohnDalton is the *actual* originator of #QuantumTheory. His #AtomicTheory correctly quantized *mass* a century before Planck quantized energy. 🤔

@gutenberg_org @wikipedia As if a CENTURY of synthetic chemistry, yielding miracle drugs, fabulous synthetic dyes, etc… all conceived on the basis of #JohnDalton ‘s #AtomicTheory was pure luck?

@compoundchem
1803 marks the birth of #QuantumTheory.

#JohnDalton quantized mass when he postulated his essentially correct #AtomicTheory. ✅

@compoundchem #JohnDalton is the true founder of #QuantumTheory because his #AtomicTheory correctly quantized MASS to explain observations in #chemistry 🧪 almost a century before #MaxPlanck quantized energy to avoid the ‘ultraviolet catastrophe’ :oh_no_bubble:.

@gutenberg_org The first #QuantumTheory explaining the quantized properties of atoms was #JohnDalton ‘s #AtomicTheory a century earlier than Planck’s quantum theory and the Franck-Hertz experiment.

His ca 1803 theory explained the quantization of MASS in atoms and molecules! 🤔
