		HEINRICH RUDOLF HERTZ (1857-1894), German physicist, was born at Hamburg on the 22nd of February 1857.
		Hertz himself gave an admirable account of the significance of his discoveries in a lecture on the relations between light and electricity, delivered before the German Society for the Advancement of Natural Science and Medicine at Heidelberg in September 1889.
		In 1889 Hertz was appointed to succeed R. Clausius as ordinary professor of physics in the university of Bonn.

	Heinrich Rudolf Hertz Summary
		Born on February 22, 1857, in Hamburg, Heinrich Hertz was the oldest of the five children of Gustav Hertz, a lawyer and later a senator and the head of the judiciary of the city of Hamburg, and Elizabeth Pfefferkorn Hertz.
		Hertz was born in Hamburg, Germany, to Gustav Ferdinand Hertz, whose father converted from Judaism to Lutheranism and married into a Lutheran family, and Anna Elisabeth Pfefferkorn, herself a Lutheran.
		Hertz, however, did not contribute much to the field himself except for some early articles as an assistant to Helmholtz in Berlin, including research on the evaporation of liquids, a new kind of hygrometer, and a graphical means of determining the properties of moist air when subjected to adiabatic changes.

		Hertz was born in Hamburg, Germany, to Gustav Ferdinand Hertz, whose father converted from Judaism to Lutheranism and married into a Lutheran family, and Anna Elisabeth Pfefferkorn, herself a Lutheran.
		Hertz had always had a deep interest in meteorology probably derived from his contacts with Willhelm von Bezold (he was Hertz's professor in a laboratory course at the Munich Polytechnic in the summer of 1878).
		Hertz, however, did not contribute much to the field himself except for some early articles as an assistant to Helmholtz in Berlin, including research on the evaporation of liquids, a new kind of hygrometer, and a graphical means of determining the properties of moist air when subjected to adiabatic changes.

		Heinrich Rudolf Hertz was born on 22 February, 1857, in Hamburg.
		Then Heinrich Hertz went to Frankfurt to gain practical experience in engineering and after a year of military service with a railway regiment in Berlin (1876-77) he spent a year at the University of Munich.
		In 1888, in a corner of his physics classroom at the Karlsruhe Polytechnic in Berlin, Hertz generated electric waves using an electric circuit; the circuit contained a metal rod that had a small gap at its midpoint, and when sparks crossed this gap violent oscillations of high frequency were set up in the rod.

		Hertz was born in Hamburg, Germany on 22 February 1857, the oldest of four children.
		Hertz theorized that the spark discharge from a Leyden jar was a series of high-frequency oscillations instead of a simple, one-way flow of electricity.
		Hertz also researched electric discharges in gases and hoped to discover whether cathode rays (which were later renamed electrons) were beams of particles or whether they were electromagnetic waves.

		Heinrich Hertz - first to detect radio waves in 1887 by causing a spark to leap across a gap that generated electromagnetic waves - built oscillator and resonator by 1893.
		Hertz also observed that his device made better sparks when exposed to ultraviolet radiation, a result of the photoelectric phenomenon caused by energetic photons knocking electrons off a metal surface.
		The unit is named in honor of the German physicist Heinrich Rudolf Hertz, who first demonstrated the nature of electromagnetic wave propagation.
