1925 жылғы ғылым мен технологияның маңызды оқиғалары

The year 1925 in science and technology involved some significant events, listed below.

January 1 – Cecilia Payne completes her PhD thesis Stellar Atmospheres: a Contribution to the Observational Study of High Temperature in the Reversing Layers of Stars at Radcliffe College of Harvard University, providing spectral evidence that stars are composed almost entirely of hydrogen with helium, contrary to scientific consensus at the time; however, her findings will be vindicated by 1929 and astronomer Otto Struve will describe her work as "the most brilliant PhD thesis ever written in astronomy".

July 10–21 – Scopes Trial: In a staged test case (the "Monkey Trial") in Dayton, Tennessee, John T. Scopes, a young high school science teacher is accused of assigning a reading from a state mandated textbook on Darwinian evolution in violation of a Tennessee state law, the "Butler Act". He is found guilty and fined $100, though the verdict is later overturned on a technicality. September – Official opening of Thijsse's Hof (Garden of Thijsse), the first wildlife garden in the Netherlands, in Bloemendaal near Haarlem. Approximate date – Extinction of the Bubal hartebeest in North Africa.

May – Rhenium is discovered by Walter Noddack and Ida Tacke in Berlin, the last stable, non radioactive naturally occurring element to be found. The Fischer–Tropsch process for production of hydrocarbons is first developed by Franz Fischer and Hans Tropsch at the Kaiser Wilhelm Institut für Kohlenforschung in Mülheim an der Ruhr, Germany.

Museum of the History of Science opens in the Old Ashmolean building in Oxford, set up by Robert Gunther based largely on the collection given by Dr Lewis Evans. Pharmazie Historisches Museum der Universität Basel established by donation of the collection of pharmacist Josef Anton Häfliger. Edwin Arthur Burtt's The Metaphysical Foundations of Modern Physical Science is published.

January – Wolfgang Pauli announces his exclusion rule. June – Werner Heisenberg spends time on Heligoland resulting in the September publication of his seminal paper, "Über quantentheoretische Umdeutung kinematischer und mechanischer Beziehungen" ("Quantum theoretical re interpretation of kinematic and mechanical relations") in Zeitschrift für Physik. September–November – Heisenberg, Max Born and Pascual Jordan submit their papers "Zur Quantenmechanik" setting out their matrix formulation of quantum mechanics, to Zeitschrift für Physik.

June 13 – Charles Francis Jenkins achieves the first synchronized transmission of pictures and sound, using 48 lines, and a mechanical system. A 10 minute film of a miniature windmill in motion is sent across 5 miles from Anacostia to Washington, DC. The images are viewed by representatives of the Bureau of Standards, the U. S. Navy, the Department of Commerce and others. Jenkins calls this "the first public demonstration of radiovision". October 2 – John Logie Baird successfully transmits the first television pictures with a greyscale image, in London. October 22 – Julius Edgar Lilienfeld files the first patent for a form of field effect transistor. November 4 – Charles F. Brannock files a patent for the Brannock Device for measuring shoe sizes. late 1925 or early 1926 – Vladimir K. Zworykin demonstrates a cathode ray tube television system using Braun tubes at the Westinghouse Electric laboratories in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Jonas Hesselman introduces the Hesselman engine.

Sinclair Lewis's novel Arrowsmith is published in the United States, notable in having the culture of medical science as a principal theme.
