- W2896729211 abstract "This chapter explores the ways in which the ether saw its popularity renewed by its link to the modern wireless technologies. With the creation of the BBC in 1922, wireless sets ceased to be obscure devices for military and commercial communication and became household goods to entertain the British middle classes. Wireless amateurs, electrical engineers, inventors and specialised physicists engaged in a cultural exchange among themselves and with the general public in order to explain and understand the mechanisms and possibilities of the new technology. This created a new arena for discussions on the existence of the ether at a time when highly esoteric physics (mainly relativity, but also quantum physics) had triggered a debate on its very existence. This chapter argues that radio broadcasting was instrumental for the concept of the ether to remain popular among wireless amateurs, engineers and the general public in the 1920s and early 1930s." @default.
