Welcome!

This website is dedicated to the life and achievements of the Scottish born Australian physicist William Sutherland (1859-1911).

It is the result of a few years of intermittent but passionate study of Sutherland’s writings, as well as of a few travels to archives in search for private letters and other material either by Sutherland or related to him.

Since despite of his many and valuable contributions to science, there is to date very little on Sutherland in the literature, the hope is that this website will help realizing one day the first comprehensive work on him.

If you would like to give your contribution, contact me. I will be happy to hear from you!
