He was dismissed to Altona in 1761 caused by his theological views going against the prevailing orthodoxy. While he stayed in Soroe he published his "Praktische Philosophie für alle Stände" 1758. </em> hardcover

It was of the greatest importtence as a basis for later developments."He applied his mathematics to astronomy working out the nature of some perturbations being in this respect the precursor of Lagrange and Laplace. He began to replace the geometric methods of proof used by Galileo and Newton with the algebraic a tendency carried to its conclusion by Lagrange. In particular he worked on lunar theory that is on the analysis of the exact motion of the moon the complications of which have been the despair of astronomers and mathematicians since the time of Kepler. - Eneström: 398 399 400 a. 401. </em> unknown

"His Inleding till chemien 1798 was the first Swedishlanguage textbook written in the spirit of the new combustion theory.

In a paper published in 1788 he tried to define phlogiston and admitted that the French explanation of combustion was superior to some phlogiston theories but for a long time he was not wholly converted. His lectures always made use of the new chemistry and he eventually became the spokesman in Scandinavia for Lavoisier’s nomenclature and combustion theory often encountering Berzelius opposition."DSB.Poggendorff I 827. - Neville I p. 496. </em> unknown

174046843Paris L'Imprimerie Royale 1740. 4to. Without wrappers. Extracted from "Mémoires de l'Academie des Sciences. Année 1737". Pp. 205-227 a. 2 folded engraved plates. <br/><br/><em>First appearance of this extremely importent paper in which Clairaut directly confirms the rotation and the orbital movement of the Earth around the Sun and giving an indirect proof of the axiom that the velocity of light does not depend on whether the light source moves away or toward the observer. The Earth does move after all !!In 1728 James Bradley trying to measure the stellar parallax discovered stellar aberration - the angular displacement of the apparent direction of starlight due to the earth's motion - and attributed it to the combined effect of the finite velocity of light and the earth's orbital velocity. But Bradley had not given any theoretical proof but Clairaut did in the offered paper.Aberration is "the apparent change in direction of a source of light caused by an observers component of motion perpendicular to the impinging rays. During this time the telescope has moved a short distance causing the photons to reach a spot on the focal plane displayed from the former image position. This discovery provided the first direct physical confirmation of the Copernican theory. A second importent application of aberration has been its clear-cut demonstration that as is axiomatic to special relativity light reaching the earth has a velocity unaffected by the relative motion of the source toward or away from earth."McGraw-Hill "Concise Encyclopedia.". </em> unknown

The original paper "Experiments to determine the Density of the Earth" appeared in Philosophical Transaction 1798."Cavendish published five papers between 1784 and 1809.With one exception they were comparatively minor productions.The exception was his determination of the density of the earth or weighing of the world in 1798 by means of John Michell's torsion balance. The apparatus consisted of two lead balls on either end of a suspended beam; these movable balls were attracted by a pair of stationary lead balls. Cavendish calculated the the force of attraction between the balls fro the observed period of oscillation of the balance and deduced the density of the earth from the force. He found it to be 5.48 times that of water. Cavendish was the first to observe gravitational motions induced by comparatively minute portions of ordinary matter.By weighing the world he rendered the law of gravitation complete.
