"Hall's Discovery Comparable with the greatest ever made by Michael Faraday"--Kelvin Edwin Hall. "On a New Action of the Magnet on Electric Currents" being an offprint from the American Journal of Mathematics. 2 (3): 287 292, 1879. Original wrappers. This offprint has seen its fair share of bumps and bruises probably a little too tall (12.5") to be in wrappers this thin. FAIR copy, only. [++] "The Hall effect, development of a transverse electric field in a solid material when it carries an electric current and is placed in a magnetic field that is perpendicular to the current. This phenomenon was discovered in 1879 by the U.S. physicist Edwin Herbert Hall. The electric field, or Hall field, is a result of the force that the magnetic field exerts on the moving positive or negative particles that constitute the electric current. Whether the current is a movement of positive particles, negative particles in the opposite direction, or a mixture of the two, a perpendicular magnetic field displaces the moving electric charges in the same direction sideways at right angles to both the magnetic field and the direction of current flow. The accumulation of charge on one side of the conductor leaves the other side oppositely charged and produces a difference of potential. An appropriate meter may detect this difference as a positive or negative voltage. The sign of this Hall voltage determines whether positive or negative charges are carrying the current."--Encyclopedia Britannica "The Hall effect is the production of a potential difference (the Hall voltage) across an electrical conductor that is transverse to an electric current in the conductor and to an applied magnetic field perpendicular to the current. It was discovered by Edwin Hall in 1879." Wikipedia [++] "Hall is best known for the effect bearing his name; it formed the basis of his Ph.D. dissertation and was the subject of many of his later researches. He was stimulated by Rowland to question a statement in Maxwell s Electricity and Magnetism that the force acting on a conductor in a magnetic field acts on the conductor directly and not on the electric current. Hall s experimental persistence was rewarded when he found that a current through a gold conductor in a magnetic field produced an electric potential perpendicular to both the current and the field. The notion that this was due to simple interaction between the current and the field had to be abandoned, however, when other metals were found for which the effect was in a direction opposite to that predicted. Hall s discovery was termed by Kelvin as comparable with the greatest ever made by Michael Faraday. It sparked interest in studies in this area, and three other transverse effects were soon discovered; they bear the names of Andreas von Ettingshausen, Walther Nernst, and Augusto Righi and Sylvestre Leduc."--Complete DSB online.…
