High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Marie Alfred Cornu (March 6, 1841 - April 12, 1902) was a French physicist. The French generally refer to him as Alfred Cornu. Cornu was born at Orleans and was educated at the Ecole polytechnique and the Ecole des mines. Upon the death of Emile Verdet in 1866, Cornu became, in 1867, Verdet's successor as professor of experimental physics at the Ecole polytechnique, where he remained throughout his life. Although he made various excursions into other branches of physical science, undertaking, for example, with Jean-Baptistin Baille about 1870 a repetition of Cavendish's experiment for determining the gravitational constant G, his original work was mainly concerned with optics and spectroscopy.
