Jeans, aged 69</ref>) was an [[England|English]]  [[physicist]], [[astronomer]] and [[mathematician]].


==Background==
Born in [[Ormskirk]], [[Lancashire]], Jeans was educated at [[Merchant Taylors' School, Northwood]], [[Wilson's School|Wilson's Grammar School]],<ref>Allport, D.H. & Friskney, N.J. "A Short History of Wilson's School", Wilson's School Charitable Trust, 1987, pg 234</ref> [[Camberwell]] and [[Trinity College, Cambridge]].<ref>{{acad|id=JNS896JH|name=Jeans, James Hopwood}}</ref>
His coach for [[Cambridge Mathematical Tripos]] was [[Robert Alfred Herman]], and in 1898 he came out [[Second Wrangler]].
Jeans was elected [[Fellow]] of Trinity College in October 1901,<ref>{{Cite newspaper The Times |articlename=University intelligence - Cambridge|day_of_week=Friday |date=11 October 1901 |page_number=4 |issue=36583| }}</ref> and taught at Cambridge,  but went to [[Princeton University]] in 1904 as a professor of applied mathematics.  He returned to Cambridge in 1910.


He made important contributions in many areas of physics, including [[Quantum mechanics|quantum theory]], the theory of [[radiation]] and [[stellar evolution]]. His analysis of rotating bodies led him to conclude that [[Pierre-Simon Laplace|Laplace]]'s theory that the solar system formed from a single cloud of gas was incorrect, proposing instead that the planets condensed from material drawn out of the sun by a hypothetical catastrophic near-collision with a passing star. This theory is not accepted today.

Jeans, along with [[Arthur Eddington]], is a founder of British [[cosmology]]. In 1928 Jeans was the first to conjecture a [[steady state cosmology]] based on a hypothesized continuous creation of matter in the universe.<ref>Astronomy and Cosmogony, Cambridge U Press, p 360</ref> This theory was ruled out when the 1965 discovery of the [[cosmic microwave background]] was widely interpreted as the tell-tale signature of the [[Big Bang]].
 
His scientific reputation is grounded in the monographs ''The Dynamical Theory of Gases'' (1904), ''Theoretical Mechanics'' (1906), and ''Mathematical Theory of Electricity and Magnetism'' (1908). After retiring in 1929, he wrote a number of books for the lay public, including ''The Stars in Their Courses'' (1931), ''The Universe Around Us,'' ''Through Space and Time'' (1934), ''The New Background of Science'' (1933), and ''[[The Mysterious Universe]].''  These books made Jeans fairly well known as an expositor of the revolutionary scientific discoveries of his day, especially in [[theory of relativity|relativity]] and [[physical cosmology]].
 
In 1939, the [[Journal of the British Astronomical Association]] reported that Jeans was going to stand as a candidate for parliament for the [[Cambridge University (UK Parliament constituency)|Cambridge University constituency]]. The election, expected to take place in 1939 or 1940 did not take place until 1945, and without his involvement.
 
He also wrote the book "Physics and Philosophy" (1943) where he explores the different views on reality from two different perspectives: [[science]] and [[philosophy]].
 
On his religious views, Jeans was an agnostic.<ref>{{cite book|title=The Future of Man|year=2004|publisher=Random House LLC|isbn=9780385510721|page=212|author=Pierre Teilhard De Chardin|accessdate=18 July 2013|quote=We can hardly wonder, in the circumstances, that agnostics such as Sir James Jeans and Marcel Boll, and even convinced believers like Guardini, have uttered expressions ol amazement (tinged with heroic pessimism or triumphant detachment) at the apparent insignificance of the phenomenon of Life in terms of the cosmos— a little mold on a grain of dust...}}</ref>
 
Jeans married twice, first to the American [[poet]] [[Charlotte Tiffany Mitchell]] in 1907,<ref>{{cite web | url=http://www-history.mcs.st-andrews.ac.uk/Biographies/Jeans.html | title=Sir James Hopwood Jeans | publisher=School of Mathematics and Statistics, [[University of St Andrews]], Scotland | date=October 2003 | accessdate=28 November 2011 | author=J J O'Connor and E F Robertson}}</ref> then the [[Austria]]n [[organ (music)|organ]]ist and [[harpsichord]]ist [[Susi Jeans|Suzanne Hock]] (better known as [[Susi Jeans]]) in 1935. He died in [[Dorking]], [[Surrey]].
 
At Merchant Taylors' School there is a James Jeans Academic Scholarship for the candidate in the entrance exams who displays outstanding results across the spectrum of subjects but notably in Mathematics and Sciences.
 
==Major accomplishments==
One of Jeans' major discoveries, named [[Jeans length]], is a critical radius of an [[interstellar cloud]] in space. It depends on the temperature, and density of the cloud, and the mass of the particles composing the cloud. A cloud that is smaller than its Jeans length will not have sufficient gravity to overcome the repulsive gas pressure forces and condense to form a star, whereas a cloud that is larger than its Jeans length will collapse.
 
:<math>\lambda_J=\sqrt{\frac{15k_{B}T}{4\pi Gm\rho}}</math>
 
Jeans came up with another version of this equation, called Jeans mass or [[Jeans instability]], that solves for the critical mass a cloud must attain before being able to collapse.
 
Jeans also helped to discover the [[Rayleigh–Jeans law]], which relates the energy density of blackbody radiation to the temperature of the emission source.
 
:<math> f(\lambda) = 8\pi c \frac{k_{B}T}{\lambda^4}</math>
