‎---- EDITION ORIGINALE ---- TRES BEL EXEMPLAIRE ---- "Soon after receiving his degree, Perrin was placed in charge of developing a course in physical chemistry at the Sorbonne, for which he wrote his pro-Boltzmannian Traité de chimie physique. Les principes (1903). The focus of his research shifted from cathode rays and x rays, and a general concern with the atomic hypothesis, to experiments on ion transport and the whole problem of how an electrolyte transfers its charge to the walls of a container. It was out of these studies, in turn, and the stimulation provided by Siedentopf and Zisgmondy's 1903 invention of the slit ultramiscroscope , that Perrin's interest arose in the behavior of colloidal particles and, in particular, in their Brownian motion...".
