| '''Heinrich Friedrich Emil Lenz''' ({{lang-ru|'''Эмилий Христианович Ленц'''}}) (12 February 1804 – 10 February 1865) was a Russian [[physicist]] of [[Baltic Germans|Baltic German ethnicity]]. He is most noted for formulating [[Lenz's law]] in electrodynamics in 1833. The symbol <math>L</math>, conventionally representing [[inductance]], is chosen in his honor.<ref name="magnetlab">{{cite web | url=http://www.magnet.fsu.edu/education/tutorials/pioneers/lenz.html | title=Heinrich Friedrich Emil Lenz (1804-1865) | publisher=National High Magnetic Field Laboratory | accessdate=June 9, 2012}}</ref>
| |
| | |
| Lenz was born in [[Tartu|Dorpat]] (now Tartu, Estonia), the [[Governorate of Livonia]], in the [[Russian Empire]] at that time. After completing his secondary education in 1820, Lenz studied chemistry and physics at the [[University of Tartu|University of Dorpat]].<ref>{{DSB |first=Olga | last=Lezhneva | title=Lenz, Emil Khristianovich (Heinrich Fridrich Emil) | volume=8 | pages=187-189 }}</ref> He traveled with the navigator [[Otto von Kotzebue]] on his third expedition around the world from 1823 to 1826. On the voyage Lenz studied climatic conditions and the physical properties of [[seawater]]. The results have been published in "Memoirs of the [[St. Petersburg Academy of Sciences]]" (1831).
| |
| | |
| After the voyage, Lenz began working at the [[University of St. Petersburg, Russia]], where he later served as the Dean of Mathematics and Physics from 1840 to 1863 and was [[Rector (academia)|Rector]] from 1863 until his death in 1865. Lenz also taught at the [[Petrischule]] in 1830 and 1831, and at the [[Mikhailovskaya Artillery Academy]].
| |
| | |
| Lenz had begun studying [[electromagnetism]] in 1831. Besides the law named in his honor, Lenz also independently discovered [[Joule's first law|Joule's law]] in 1842; to honor his efforts on the problem, it is also given the name the "Joule–Lenz law," named also for [[James Prescott Joule]].
| |
| | |
| Lenz eagerly participated in development of the [[electroplating]] technology, invented by his friend and colleague [[Moritz von Jacobi]]. In 1839, Lenz produced several [[medallion]]s using [[electrotyping]]. Along with the electrotyped relief produced by Jacobi the same year, these were the first instances of [[Galvanoplastic|galvanoplastic sculpture]].<ref>[http://www.galteh.ru/article_galvanotehnika.html History of electroplating in the 19th century Russia] {{ru icon}}</ref>

| Lenz died in [[Rome, Italy]], after suffering from a stroke.
