Otto Heinrich Wiener (15 June 1862 – 18 January 1927) was a German physicist. ==Life and Work== Otto Wiener was a son of Christian Wiener and Pauline Hausrath. Orphan of mother at the age of 3, he married Lina Fenner at 32. He was a pupil of August Kundt at the University of Strasbourg, where he received his doctorate in 1887 with a thesis on the phase change of light upon reflection, and methods to determine the thickness of thin films. Wiener is known for the experimental proof of standing light waves. In 1890 he succeeded in determining the wavelength of light. He was professor at the University of Giessen from 1895. In 1899 he became professor at the Physics Institute of the University of Leipzig,〔http://www.2iceshs.cyfronet.pl/2ICESHS_Proceedings/Chapter_17/R-9_Schlote.pdf〕 where he succeeded Gustav Wiedemann. Together with Theodor des Coudres, he built an excellent physical institute there, and appointed Peter Debye and Gregor Wentzel.〔 〕 In his academic inaugural lecture at Leipzig of 1900 on ''The Extension of our Senses'', he presented the theory of physical education in the context of evolutionary theory. He took up Heinrich Hertz's theory that separates internal images —a conceptualization of reality— from descriptions of experiment(Principles of Mechanics, 1894). It was the dawn of media technology. Wiener added to Hertz's work, and theorized ''cinematography'' as an extension of our senses (1900). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Otto Wiener (physicist)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
