What changed
Related the irregular motion of suspended particles to molecular thermal motion through a quantitative diffusion relation.
Scientific scope
Related the irregular motion of suspended particles to molecular thermal motion through a quantitative diffusion relation. Scope limitation: This theoretical prediction is distinct from Perrin’s later measurements and from the prior observation of Brownian motion.
Evidence
Assessment uses the catalogue-linked source evidence for the stated contribution. This theoretical prediction is distinct from Perrin’s later measurements and from the prior observation of Brownian motion.
