		JOHN WILLIAM STRUTT RAYLEIGH, 3rd baron (1842-), English physicist, was born in Essex on the 12th of November 1842, being the son of the 2nd baron.' Going to Trinity College, Cambridge, he graduated as senior wrangler in 1865, and obtained the first Smith's prize of the year, the second being gained by Professor Alfred Marshall.
		His early mathematical and physical papers, written under the name of J. Strutt, made him known over Europe; and his powers rapidly matured until, at the death of Clerk Maxwell, he stood at the head of British physicists, Sir George Stokes and Lord Kelvin alone excepted.
		Lord Rayleigh had an interest in abnormal psychological investigations, and became a member and vicepresident of the Society for Psychical Research.

		Rayleigh was born in Essex and studied at Cambridge.
		In 1871, Rayleigh explained that the blue colour of the sky arises from the scattering of light by dust particles in the air, and was able to relate the degree of scattering to the wavelength of the light.
		An inconsistency in the Rayleigh-Jeans equation, published by Rayleigh 1900 (amended 1905 by James Jeans), which described the distribution of wavelengths in fl-body radiation (see fl body), led to the formulation shortly after of the quantum theory by German physicist Max Planck.

		The English physicist John William Strutt, 3d Baron Rayleigh (1842-1919), was one of the last of the great individual classical physicists whose interests spanned all disciplines.
		John William Strutt was born in Maldon, Essex, on Nov. 12, 1842, the eldest son of the 2d Baron Rayleigh, a prosperous Essex farmer and landowner.
		In 1870 Strutt derived theoretically, and verified experimentally, the mechanism of the scattering of light by small particles (Rayleigh scattering), thus explaining the blue of the sky and red of the sunset.

		Rayleigh was fellow, secretary and president of the Royal Society of London and received numerous honorary degrees from universities and science academies around the world.
		Rayleigh looked at the classical nature of electricity and many of the advances that later took place in radio, electronics, and electrical engineering could be traced to Rayleigh's work.
		Rayleigh's continues to be read in the original and cited, whereas the work of most of his contemporaries is not.

		The Rayleigh title was originally given to his grandmother, Charlotte, on her husband's suggestion because Joseph Holden Strutt had declined personal honours throughout his life, and perhaps didn't wish to be raised to the peerage as he should have to resign as an MP.
		John W Strutt was born on 12th November 1842 into a loving and protective family.
		Rayleigh's son and biographer, Robert John, succeeded to the title in 1919 and continued in his father's footsteps being a Fellow of the Royal Society and professor of physics.

		Rayleigh scattering is related to the inhomogeneities due to the material structure.
		The air, the glass are well known examples where the small refractive index fluctuations induced by their amorphous nature scatter light in all directions without changing the frequency of the scattered light, because the inhomogeneities are frozen in the material structure.
		Other scattering processes are Rayleigh wings scattering, Brillouin Scattering and Raman scattering phenomenas.
