	Giovanni Antonio Amedeo Plana - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Giovanni Antonio Amedeo Plana (November 6, 1781–January 20, 1864) was an Italian astronomer and mathematician.
		Jean Fourier, impressed by Plana's abilities, managed to have him appointed to the chair of mathematics in a school of artillery in Piedmont in 1803, which came under the control of the French in 1805.
		The Plana crater on the Moon is named in his honor.

	Plana biography
		Giovanni Plana's father was Antonio Maria Plana while his mother was Giovanna Giacoboni.
		Plana had already worked with Francesco Carlini on geodesy, and the director of the observatory in Milan suggested to Plana that he might collaborate with Carlini on problems relating to the motion of the moon.
		Plana is generally considered one of the major Italian scientists of his age because, at a time when the quality of instruction at Italian universities had greatly deteriorated, his teaching was of the highest quality, quite comparable with that of the grandes écoles of Paris, at which he had studied.

		Lagrange, was greatly impressed by Plana's abilities and he tried to arrange for him to be appointed to the chair of mathematics at the school of artillery at Grenoble.
		Fourier failed in his attempt on behalf of Plana, so he tried again, this time to have Plana appointed to the chair of mathematics at the school of artillery in the Piedmont which was located part in Turin and part in Alessandria.
		Lagrange recommended Plana for the chair of astronomy at the University of Turin, and Plana was appointed to the position.

	History
		This is when father Giovanni Battista Beccaria finally housed, on an old tower on Via Po, a main street downtown Torino, and shortly after on the roof of what today is the building of the Academy of Sciences, the astronomical and geodetic instrumentation he used for measurement of the "Gradus Taurinensis", i.e.
		In 1822, under the directorship of Giovanni Plana (1781-1864), a pupil of the local eminent physicist and mathematician Joseph-Louis Lagrange, the Observatory of Torino was moved to a more suitable site, the roof of Palazzo Madama, and a new large Reichenbach and Fraunhofer meridian circle was acquired, one of the largest of the time.
		After Boccardi, the Observatory was headed by Giovanni Silva (1924), Luigi Volta (1925), Gino Cecchini (1942), and Mario Girolamo Fracastoro (1966), all of whom consistently focused the scientific activities of the Observatory in the fields of astrometry, celestial mechanics, and planetology.

	babbage's intelligence - the hypermedia research centre - University of Westminster
		Babbage was invited to the meeting by Giovanni Plana, a Laplacian graduate of the Ecole Polytechnique and Piedmontese government astronomer.
		Plana evoked the Engine with a brilliant political analogy: "hitherto the legislative department of our analysis has been all powerful - the executive all feeble.
		Menabrea and Plana worked hard to link their algebraic analyses of moving forces with urgent practical demands of military and civil engineering and thus to reform the labour force of the new state.

	Physics in Torino: a brief history
		The discrepancy between Beccaria's measurement and the theoretical computation was later correctly attributed (by Plana, around 1820) to the presence of the Alps, the attraction of which deviates the direction of the plumb line.
		Giovanni Plana (1781 - 1864), astronomer and mathematical physicist, merits to be cited in detail.
		With the restoration of the King, the chair (a Napoleonic creation) was suppressed, Plana became professor of Analysis and also had the chair of Rational Mechanics at the Military Academy (where he was later appointed Director of Mathematical Studies).

		While the Citadel prepared the city to withstand the new techniques of siege warfare, the rest of the modernisation plan remained no more than a prospect, although a few minor attempts were made to clean up the ancient city centre.
		Yet again it was up to the intellectuals of the period to express, in a variety of ways, the discontents of Piedmontese society the political and cultural effects of the restoration.
		Scholars and scientists of the time like Giovanni Plana, Amedeo Avogadro,Amedeo Peyron, each in his own field, took a keen interest in contemporary politics and the social discontent that was too lead the unsuccessful uprising of 1821.

		The primary aim of the Group is outlining strategies for conserving, cataloguing and evaluating the considerable heritage of historically relevant scientific instruments belonging to the INAF.
		Such an heritage, housed in a number of astronomical observatories found all over Italy, is often connected to important personalities from the history of astronomy: Giuseppe Piazzi, Angelo Secchi, Giovanni Plana, Giovanni Virginio Schiaparelli, etcetera.
		The most notable case submitted to the Group for examination is the Astronomical and Copernican Museum at the Astronomical Observatory in Rome.

		, in 1840 at the invitation of the prominent Italian scientist Baron Giovanni Plana (1781-1864).
		Babbage's expectation seems to have been that the highly-respected Baron Plana himself would write an article about the lectures, thereby giving Babbage and his new Engine a stamp of legitimacy that even the nationalistic English would have to recognize, but this was not to be.
		Plana -- then over 60, 10 years Babbage's senior -- begged off the job, pleading ill-health, and gave it to his younger colleague, Menabrea, who was then about 30, 20 years Babbage's junior.

		For instance, Walker (1929) cites Pierre Simon Laplace (1749-1827) and Giovanni Plana (1781-1864) as both contributing by introducing the "product term" in the equation of correlation, representing the probability of the simultaneous occurrence of two errors.
		For one, he was one of the first to study the existence of two or more errors, something that only few (e.g., Gauss, Plana) had done before.
		Second, he produced the product term for the correlation coefficient, and discovered the mathematical equation for what 30 years later was coined the regression line.
