From "Philosophical Magazine" February 1912 vol. 23 no. 134 . Owen Willians Richardson 1879-1959 would go on to win the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1928 for his work on the thermionic phenomenon and especially for the discovery of the law named after him. "The law for the discovery of which the Nobel Prize was specially given was first announced by him in a paper read before the Cambridge Philosophical Society on the 25th November 1901 in the following words as recorded in the published Proceedings: 'If then the negative radiation is due to the corpuscles coming out of the metal the saturation current s should obey the law s = AT1/2e-b/T. This law is fully confirmed by the experiments to be described.' Richardson continued working at this subject at Cambridge until 1906 when he was appointed Professor of Physics at Princeton University in America where he remained until the end of 1913 working at thermionic emission photoelectric action and the gyromagnetic effect."
