Oersted

Yes, I think you could see a Peterson performance -- the whole thing, not just his solo but Nils-Henning Oersted Petersen's tasty bass solos and Ed Thigpen's drumming too -- as a construction narrative, and maybe that's one way of understanding why we beboppers disdained him.

This is circa 1837, and basically exploits the recently-hot discovery by Oersted that if you pass a current through a wire, it generates a magnetic field ….

Akin to these stolen titles are those which have been imitated, that is to say, stolen to the extent of one half; for instance, long after I had produced my treatise On Will in Nature, Oersted wrote a book entitled On Mind in Nature.

Hans Oersted (1777–1851) showed that a magnetic needle placed near a current-carrying wire deviated from its position, and that the direction of deviation depended on the direction of current flow.

In the spring of 1951, I was told that an expected visitor for the coming year had dropped out and that the Bohr Institute could provide me with an Oersted fellowship to remain there until the fall of 1952.

Another example occurred in the 19th century when it was realized, mainly through the work of Oersted in Denmark and

As for the force which causes a change in the vibrations in a magnetic field, this is basically the force, the manifestations of which were first observed by Oersted, when he discovered the effect of

Hendrik A. Lorentz - Nobel Lecture 1967

Just two years before the news had flashed on the philosophical and scientific world that Oersted, a Danish philosopher, had caused a deflection of the magnetic needle by the passage near it of an electric current.

A Psychiatric Milestone Bloomingdale Hospital Centenary, 1821-1921 Various

This new method of producing continuous electrical effects had far-reaching results, one of which was the discovery of the magnetic properties of the electric current by the Dane, Oersted - once again a purely accidental discovery, moving directly counter to the assumptions of the discoverer himself.
