Adair Crawford FRS (1748 - 1795), a chemist and physician, was a pioneer in the development of calorimetric methods for measuring the specific heat capacity of substances and the heat of chemical reactions. In his influential 1779 book "Experiments and Observations on Animal Heat", Crawford presented new experiments proving that respiratory gas exchange in animals is a combustion (two years after Antoine Lavoisier's influential "On combustion in general").

  • Adair Crawford FRS (1748 - 1795), a chemist and physician, was a pioneer in the development of calorimetric methods for measuring the specific heat capacity of substances and the heat of chemical reactions. In his influential 1779 book "Experiments and Observations on Animal Heat", Crawford presented new experiments proving that respiratory gas exchange in animals is a combustion (two years after Antoine Lavoisier's influential "On combustion in general"). Crawford also was involved in the discovery of the element strontium.
  • Adair Crawford war ein schottisch-irischer Chemiker und Professor an der Royal Military Academy. Crawford war 1790 zusammen mit William Cruickshank an der Entdeckung des Elements Strontium beteiligt. Er war ein Pionier auf dem Gebiet der Kalorimetrie. Hier beeinflusste er Alessandro Volta.
  • Adair Crawford – chemik, pochodzenia szkocko-irlandzkiego. Niezależnie od Williama Cruickshanka w 1790 odkrył stront. Czysty metaliczny stront uzyskał później Humphry Davy. Adair Crawford był pionierem kalorymetrii, zainspirował późniejsze prace Alessandro Volty.
  • Adair Crawford, foi um químico irlandês, responsável pela descoberta do elemento químico estrôncio em 1790 juntamente com William Cruickshank. Humphry Davy posteriormente isolou o metal estrôncio puro pelo processo de eletrólise. Crawford foi o pioneiro no ramo da calorimetria, que influenciou Alessandro Volta.
  • Адер Кроуфорд — шотландский химик. В 1790 г. вместе с Уильямом Крюйкшенком пришёл к выводу о содержании в минерале стронцианите нового элемента, позднее названного стронцием. Был также — в труде «Опыты и наблюдения над животным теплом, а также Воспламенение горючих тел» (англ. Experiments and Observations on Animal Heat, and the Inflammation of Combustible Bodies; 1779) — одним из пионеров калориметрии.
