Gauss. Gauss was born in Brunswick. 1796, Gauss discovered the regular drawing of regular heptagon. 1807, Gauss became a professor at the University of G? ttingen and director of the G? ttingen Observatory. During the period of1818-1826, the geodetic work in hanover principality was mainly Gaussian. 1840, gauss and Weber drew the world's first map of the earth's magnetic field.

Introduction to Gauss In 1930s, Gauss invented the magnetometer. He quit his job at the observatory to study physics. He cooperated with Weber (1804- 189 1) in the field of electromagnetism. He is 27 years older than Webb, and he is a teacher-friend relationship. 1833, he sent a telegram to Weber through a magnetic compass. This is not only the first telephone and telegraph system between Weber Laboratory and Observatory, but also the first telephone and telegraph system in the world. Although the line is only 8 kilometers long.

1840, he and Weber drew the world's first map of the earth's magnetic field. The following year, these positions were confirmed by American scientists.

Gauss studied several fields, but only published what he thought was mature. He often told his colleagues that his conclusion had been proved by himself before, but it was not published because of the incompleteness of the basic theory. Critics say he did it because he likes to steal the limelight. In fact, Gauss recorded all his research results. After his death, 20 notes recording his research results and thoughts were found, which proved that what Gauss said was true. It is generally believed that 20 notes are not all the notes of Gauss.
