Implications of Tesla's Inventions and His Moral Character on the Development of Contemporary Science and Technology

Nikola Tesla's inventions, experiments and intuition in the fields of electrical engineering and physics, together with his ē thos, are discussed in light of the philosophy of science. Several discoveries and basic experiments in the American phase of Tesla's life, after 1884, were decisive in the development of modern technologies. Tesla's famous lecture in 1891 at Columbia University, at which he demonstrated his transformer with revolutionary applications, is recalled. The technological progress resulting from Tesla's inventions is considered in light of the history of science, with reference to H. Hertz's discovery of electromagnetic waves, four years prior to Tesla's Columbia lecture, and O. J. Lodge's famous experiments on resonant electromagnetic oscillations. Another famous European who received a glorious welcome at Columbia University in early 1939 was Enrico Fermi. His arrival in America and subsequent scientific accomplishments in both theoretical and experimental physics are somewhat reminiscent of Tesla's case. However, unlike Fermi or Heisenberg, Tesla in no way violated the integrity of his moral character through his work in electrical engineering and physics, despite extensive coercion by scientists, industrialists and politicians to change his ethical orientation. There is also a discussion of superconducting radiofrequency science and technology (SRFS&T), where the main goal today is to achieve the highest possible cavity accelerating gradient for particles in linear superconducting colliders. The origins of this technology undoubtedly involve the use of Tesla's transformer as the source of the very high potential RF-field. Tesla's brilliant project involving a monopole antenna as the high power emitter, based on the principle of his transformer, is also discussed. Modern analysis and extensive analytical calculations within the framework of classical electromagnetic theory have been performed in order to justify the scientific foundations of Tesla's ideas on the long-distance wireless transmission of energy, information and electrical illumination. Tesla, owing to his fruitful and moral passion to help mankind through science and technology, remains an outstanding figure in the history of world science and culture.
