 Frederick Thomas Trouton

Frederick Thomas Trouton was a notable figure in the field of science, particularly known for his work in physics and engineering in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He is best remembered for the "Trouton experiment," which was an important test related to the theory of electric fields and the ether. The Trouton experiment aimed to measure the drag on charged conductors moving through the ether, which was a hypothesized medium for the propagation of electromagnetic waves.
