Francesco Maria Grimaldi (April 2, 1618 - December 28, 1663) was an Italian mathematician and physicist who taught at the Jesuit college in Bologna. Between 1640 and 1650, working with Riccioli, he investigated the free fall of objects, confirming that the distance of fall was proportional to the square of the time taken. In astronomy, he built and used instruments to measure geological features on the Moon, and drew an accurate map or selenograph which was published by Riccioli.

  • Francesco Maria Grimaldi (April 2, 1618 - December 28, 1663) was an Italian mathematician and physicist who taught at the Jesuit college in Bologna. Between 1640 and 1650, working with Riccioli, he investigated the free fall of objects, confirming that the distance of fall was proportional to the square of the time taken. In astronomy, he built and used instruments to measure geological features on the Moon, and drew an accurate map or selenograph which was published by Riccioli. He was the first to make accurate observations on the diffraction of light, and coined the word 'diffraction'. Later physicists used his work as evidence that light was a wave, and Isaac Newton used it to arrive at his more comprehensive theory of light. Grimaldi crater on the Moon was named after him. (en)
  • Гримальди Франческо Мария (1618 - 1663) — итальянский физик и астроном. Родился 2 апреля 1618 в Болонье. 18 марта 1632 вступил в орден иезуитов, в течение 1637-45 гг. изучал философию, риторику, теологию, в 1647 г. получил степень доктора философии, в 1651 г. принял сан священника. Преподавал в болонской Коллегии иезуитов сначала философию, затем, вследствие споров с собратьями по обществу Иисуса и был отстранён от преподавания философии и преподавал математику. Открыл дифракцию света (работа опубликована в 1665 г.). Совместно с Дж. Б. Риччиоли составил карту Луны и ввёл название лунных образований, употребляющиеся по сей день. (ru)
  • Francesco Maria Grimaldi (2 de abril, 1618 - 28 de diciembre, 1663) fue un matemático y físico italiano que dio clases el colegio universitario Jesuita de la universidad de Bolonia. Entre 1640 y 1650, trabajó con Riccioli, investigando la caída libre de objetos, confirmando los resultados obtenidos anteriormente por Galileo de que la distancia de la caída era proporcional al cuadrado del tiempo empleado.En astronomía, construyó y utilizó los instrumentos para medir características geológicas en luna, y dibujó un mapa de la luna que fue publicado por Riccioli. Fue el primero en realizar observaciones precisas de la difracción de luz y acuño el término difracción. Posteriormente su resultados fueron utilizados para sustentar la teoría ondulatoria de luz, e Isaac Newton utilizó sus resultados para llegar su teoría más comprensiva de la luz.El cráter de Grimaldi en luna fue nombrado así en su honor.

  • Francesco Maria Grimaldi entrò nella Compagnia di Gesù nel 1632 e fu ordinato sacerdote nel 1651. Nel Collegio di Bologna fu in seguito insegnante di filosofia e quindi di matematica. Assistente di Giovanni Riccioli, compila una carta della Luna la cui nomenclatura è in uso ancora oggi. Importanti i suoi studi sulla diffrazione della luce e per l'ipotesi della ondulazione della luce, espressa per la prima volta nel trattato De lumine che ha ispirato fra l'altro le opere di Domenico Guglielmini e lo stesso Isaac Newton.
