Waveforms observed in mercury. 19th-century diagrams of the waveforms observed when pouring mercury into an elliptical container. This research was carried out in the 1820s by the German brothers Ernst Heinrich Weber and Wilhelm Eduard Weber. This was part of early work on standing and propagating waves. This diagram is from volume 2 of the 4th edition (1844) of 'Elements de physique experimentale et de meteorologie' by French physicist Claude Servais Mathias Pouillet (1790-1868) | |
