Robert Strutt, 4th Baron Rayleigh
Robert John Strutt, 4th Baron Rayleigh FRS (28 August 1875 – 13 December 1947) was a British peer and physicist. He discovered "active nitrogen" and was the first to distinguish the glow of the night sky.
==Early life and education==
Strutt was born at Terling Place, the family home near Witham, Essex, the eldest son of John William Strutt, 3rd Baron Rayleigh and his wife Evelyn Georgiana Mary (née Balfour). He was thus a nephew of Arthur Balfour and of Eleanor Mildred Sidgwick. He was educated at Eton College and Trinity College, Cambridge, where he initially read mathematics, but changed after two terms to Natural Sciences.〔A. C. Egerton, ‘Strutt, Robert John, fourth Baron Rayleigh (1875–1947)’, rev. Isobel Falconer 〕 He became a research student in physics at the Cavendish Laboratory under J. J. Thomson, whose biography he subsequently wrote.〔Lord Rayleign (1942) ''The Life of Sir J. J. Thomson'' Cambridge University Press〕 His work at this time was on discharge of electricity through gases, including early work on x-rays and electrons. He wrote one of the first books on radioactivity, ''The Becquerel rays and the properties of radium'' (E. Arnold, 1904). He was awarded the Coutts Trotter studentship in 1898 and was a Fellow of Trinity College 1900–1906.〔
