At the Eve of 20th Century宣告物理学大厦已经完全建成！"The more inportant fundanental laws and facts of physicalscience have all been discovered, and these are now so firnhyestablished that the possibiliny of their ever being supplanted inconseguence of new discoveries is exceedingh remote... Ourfuturediscoveries must be looked for in the sixth place ofdecimaAlbert.A.Michelson（迈克耳进）speech at thededication of RovrsonPhpsics Lab,U.ofChicago1894"There is nothing new to be discovered in physics now Al thatA.AMichelsonremains is more and more precise measurement"ThefirstAmericantoreceiveNobelPrizein-Kelvin, Lord William ThomsonPhysics,1907
At the Eve of 20th Century A. A. Michelson The first American to receive Nobel Prize in Physics, 1907 9 宣告物理学大厦已经完全建成！
At the Eve of 20th CenturyKelvin助寿1900年4月27日(inthemeetingftheRovalInstitunonofGreatBritan)宣告物理学的大履已经建成，以后只对这座大厦作点小小的修补工作就行了：另一方面他又认为“动力学理论断言热和光都是运动的方式，可是现在，这种理论的优美性和明晰性被两朵乌云遮藏得踏然失色了”The beaut and clearness of the namical theor, whicl福asserts heat and light to be modes of motion, is atpresentobscured bvho cloudsThe first came into eristence with the undulatory theory oflight.. itivohed the guestion How could the Earth movethrough an elastic solid, such as essentialh is theluminiferousether?The second is the Maxwell-Boltzmann currentdoctrineregardingthepartitionofenergy..Kelvin,LordWilliamThomson(1824-1907)10
