Titolo: | Thermometers in the eighteenth century : J.B. Micheli du Crest's works and the cooperation with G.F. Brander / Sofia Talas. |
Abstract: | In 1741, the Geneva scientist Jacques Barthélémy Micheli du Crest proposed a thermometer that attracted much attention at that time. This paper intends to analyse how Micheli's work contributed to the standardisation of thermometers and to underline the influence of Micheli's ideas on Jean Antoine Nollet and on the so-called "Réaumur thermometers". The Augsburg instrument-maker Georg Friederich Brander and Micheli are studied through their as of now unpublished correspondence. One of the few surviving thermometers of Micheli's design made by Brander is also examined |
