History

In 1820 two Frenchman, Felix Savart and Jean-Baptist, Biot published Note sur le magnétisme de la pile de Volta[1] to the XXXX. Savart was trained as a medical doctor, although he spent more time on physics than patients and began conducting research in a physics lab on sound acoustics. He attended a lecture given by Biot
