Ramsay, Sir William (1852–1916)

Physics
  • born in Glasgow. After working under Robert Bunsen, he returned to Glasgow before taking up professorships at Bristol (1880–87) and London (1887–1912). In the early 1890s he worked with Lord Rayleigh on the gases in air and in 1894 they discovered argon. In 1898, with Morris Travers (1872–1961), he discovered neon, krypton, and xenon. Six years later he discovered the last of the noble gases, radon. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for chemistry in 1904, the year in which Rayleigh received the physics prize.

Chemical Engineering
  • A British scientist noted for the discovery of radon, which at the time was the last of the noble gases to be discovered. He worked under German chemist Robert Bunsen (1811–99) before taking up professorships at Bristol (1880–87) and then London (1887–1912). He worked with Rayleigh on the gases in air. Together they discovered argon in 1894. He worked with Morris Travers (1872–1961) and discovered neon, krypton, and xenon, discovering radon in 1904. He was awarded the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1904.
