Experiments with Alternate Currents of High Potential and High Frequency
A Lecture Delivered before the Institution of Electrical Engineers, London
E-text prepared by Robert Shimmin, Ronald Holder, and the Project Gutenberg Online Distributed Proofreading Team
"Experiments with Alternate Currents of High Potential and High Frequency" by Nikola Tesla is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. This work focuses on Tesla's groundbreaking research in electrical engineering, particularly his advancements in alternating currents and high-frequency electrical phenomena. The text serves as a detailed account of his findings, experiments, and theories, aimed at elucidating the potential and applications of these electrical currents. The opening of the work introduces Nikola Tesla, detailing his biographical background and educational journey, which leads to his pivotal contributions in electrical engineering. It highlights his early fascination with physics and arithmetic, his experiences with various inventions, and his eventual move to the United States, where he gained prominence. Furthermore, Tesla's lecture before the Institution of Electrical Engineers sets the stage for discussing alternating currents of high potential and high frequency, presenting the audience with a glimpse of the experiments and results he will elaborate on throughout the publication. This opening not only establishes Tesla's credentials as a leading figure in electric science but also builds anticipation for the innovative concepts to be explored in the subsequent chapters.
