  BBC - History - Sir Edward Appleton (1892 - 1965)
Appleton realised that this was the layer responsible for reflecting short wave radio round the world - 'the Appleton layer' - that now enables communication with Australia and America.
On the outbreak of war, Appleton was appointed secretary of the department of scientific and industrial research, the senior British government post concerned with physical science.
In 1947 Appleton was awarded the Nobel Prize for Physics and, two years later, moved to the University of Edinburgh to become principal and vice-chancellor, a position he held for the rest of his life.

  PSEWEB: Professor Peter Excell - Sir Edward Appleton Trust   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-26)
Sir Edward Appleton, Nobel prizewinner, and widely recognized as the discoverer of the Ionosphere, was born in 1892 in the city of Bradford.
Appleton’s research with Bragg was destined to be very brief as both men volunteered for the armed forces at the outbreak of World War I. Appleton applied for a commission in the Royal Engineers but was frustrated by the long wait involved and hence joined an infantry battalion (the Sixth West York­shire) in August 1914.
Appleton devised an elegantly simple experiment to prove the existence of the layer, and to determine its height, by monitoring variations in signal strength as the fre­quency of a commercial transmitter was varied.

Commonwealth researchers working with Appleton in Britain all became leaders in the development of radiolocation in their home countries and Sir Robert Watson-Watt has stated that, but for Appleton's scientific work, radar would have come too late to have been of decisive use in the Battle of Britain.

 Nathan Appleton
Nathan Appleton was born to a farm family in New Ipswich, New Hampshire.
Appleton invested $5000, an amount he was willing to lose if things went badly, in order "to see the experiment fairly tried." He brought to the new venture the principles he had identified as crucial to commercial success: sufficient capital, accurate accounting, attention to detail, and a reputation for integrity.
Appleton considered this unfair, as his opposition to immediate emancipation was based on genuine outrage at what he considered the dangerous and fanatical opinions of the more militant abolitionists.

 Appleton Papers
Appleton Papers employees are planning an employee buyout of the company from Arjo Wiggins Appleton (Worms and Cie), using their retirement funds as a down payment.
(Appleton Papers created their own similar but opposite site to deflect this criticism and claim “five decades of safety.”) It's important to note that PCBs are rapidly absorbed through the skin and volatilize into the air, so long-term office workers (and Appleton Papers' mill employees) could have experienced significant exposures.
Recently, a former Appleton Papers’ chemist (from 1948 to 1985) was honored and inducted into the Paper Industry Hall of Fame for his leadership in developing the PCB coating for carbonless paper, among other things.
