Episode 15 of our Lucasian Professors series examines Sir Joseph Larmor—Irish-born mathematician and physicist, senior wrangler, and the man who gave us the Larmor formula and helped shape the Lorentz transformations. We’ll trace his life from County Antrim to Cambridge, explore his Aether and Matter theories, his stubborn defense of the ether amid Einstein’s relativity, and how his work both advanced science and clung to old ideas. A deep dive into a brilliant mind at the crossroads of theory, experiment, and personal conviction.
