Yeats ("The Irish Dramatic Movement"). William Butler Yeats was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature "for his always inspired poetry, which in a highly artistic form gives expression to the spirit of a whole nation". Robert Andrews Millikan was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics "for his work on the elementary charge of electricity and on the photoelectric effect". Fritz Pregl was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry "for his invention of the method of micro-analysis of organic substances". Archibald Vivian Hill shared the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1922 "for his discovery relating to the production of heat in the muscle". Otto Fritz Meyerhof shared the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1922 "for his discovery of the fixed relationship between the consumption of oxygen and the metabolism of lactic acid in the muscle". The Nobel lectures by Millikan, Hill, and Yeats are in English. The Nobel lectures by Pregl and Meyerhof are in German. Frederick G. Banting and J. J. R. MacLeod shared the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1923 "for the discovery of insulin", but they did not deliver Nobel lectures.…

"High Frequency Rays of Cosmic Origin, II: Mountain Peak and Airplane Observations", in Physical Review, June, 1926, volume 27 #6, pp 645-659 in the issue of pp 647-814. Tis is the full issue for June, extracted from a larger bound voluume. "During the 1890s the theory that electricity was conveyed by a miniscule unit, the electron, gained acceptance. In 1910 Robert Millikan (Nobel Prize in physics, 1923) succeeded in precisely determining the magnitude of the electron's charge. Small electrically charged drops of oil were suspended between two metal plates where they were subjected to the downward force of gravity and the upward attraction of an electrical field. By measuring how the various drops of oil moved about, Millikan showed that their charge always was a multiple of a precisely determined charge—the electron's charge."--Nobel Prize website 714.3.…
