Henry Moseley

1887

Henry Gwyn Jeffreys Moseley (; 23 November 1887 – 10 August 1915) was an English physicist, whose contribution to the science of physics was the justification from physical laws of the previous empirical and chemical concept of the atomic number.

Moseley, known to his friends as Harry, was born in Weymouth in Dorset in 1887.

1906

In 1906 he won the chemistry and physics prizes at Eton.

In 1906, Moseley entered Trinity College of the University of Oxford, where he earned his bachelor's degree.

1910

Immediately after graduation from Oxford in 1910, Moseley became a demonstrator in physics at the University of Manchester under the supervision of Sir Ernest Rutherford.

1913

She was also the British women's champion of chess in 1913. Moseley had been a very promising schoolboy at Summer Fields School (where one of the four "leagues" is named after him), and he was awarded a King's scholarship to attend Eton College.

1915

Henry Gwyn Jeffreys Moseley (; 23 November 1887 – 10 August 1915) was an English physicist, whose contribution to the science of physics was the justification from physical laws of the previous empirical and chemical concept of the atomic number.

Moseley was assigned to the force of British Empire soldiers that invaded the region of Gallipoli, Turkey, in April 1915, as a telecommunications officer.

Moseley was shot and killed during the Battle of Gallipoli on 10 August 1915, at the age of 27.

1916

Experts have speculated that Moseley could otherwise have been awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1916. ==Biography== Henry G.
