This is one of the earliest versions of a BBC logo. It is found at the centre of the original mosaic floor in the reception of Broadcasting House, London. Completed in 1932, Broadcasting House is a jewel of Art Deco design, which integrated a wide range of artists and designers in the conception and embellishment of the UK's first ever purpose-built radio centre.

Another incorrect theory was that the heat on the dark side was causing the material to outgas, which pushed the radiometer around. This was later effectively disproved by both Schuster's experiments [9] (1876) and Lebedev's (1901) [8] Partially correct theory [ edit ]When exposed to sunlight, artificial light, or infrared radiation (even the heat of a hand nearby can be enough), the vanes turn with no apparent motive power, the dark sides retreating from the radiation source and the light sides advancing.

The reason for the rotation was a cause of much scientific debate in the ten years following the invention of the device, [1] [2] but in 1879 the currently accepted explanation for the rotation was published. [3] [4] Today the device is mainly used in physics education as a demonstration of a heat engine run by light energy. Thermodynamic explanation [ edit ] A Crookes radiometer in action with the light switched on and off. (Note that the explanation given in the caption to the clip doesn't agree with the modern explanation.) Movement with absorption [ edit ] In 2010 researchers at the University of California, Berkeley succeeded in building a nanoscale light mill that works on an entirely different principle to the Crookes radiometer. A gold light mill, only 100 nanometers in diameter, was built and illuminated by laser light that had been tuned. The possibility of doing this had been suggested by the Princeton physicist Richard Beth in 1936. The torque was greatly enhanced by the resonant coupling of the incident light to plasmonic waves in the gold structure.

Calaprice, Alice; etal. (27 October 2015). An Einstein encyclopedia. Princeton University Press. p.190. ISBN 978-0691141749. The globe remained a symbol for BBC One until 2002 - its last incarnation was as a hot-air balloon. The effect begins to be observed at partial vacuum pressures of several hundred pascals (or several torrs), reaches a peak at around 1 pascal (0.0075 torrs) and has disappeared by the time the vacuum reaches 1 ×10 −4 pascals (7.5 ×10 −7 torrs) ( see explanations note 1). At these very high vacuums the effect of photon radiation pressure on the vanes can be observed in very sensitive apparatus (see Nichols radiometer), but this is insufficient to cause rotation. Here is the first edition of The Radio Times, 'the official organ of the BBC', which appeared on news stands on 28 September 1923. It came into existence initially because of the huge resistance from newspapers to the new medium of radio. Faced with the possibility of a press embargo of radio listings, Director-General John Reith decided that the BBC would publish its own listings magazine.Worrall, J. (1982).
