Autorenporträt
Edward Walter Maunder (1851-1928) was a distinguished English astronomer and writer, renowned for his work in solar astronomy and his contributions to the understanding of sunspot cycles. His career was significantly tied to the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, where he served diligently, leading to his historical chronicle titled 'The Royal Observatory, Greenwich'. Maunder's elucidation of the sunspot numbers led to the identification of a period of solar inactivity from 1645 to 1715, now known as the Maunder Minimum. His scholarly approach incorporated meticulous observations and methodical record-keeping, essential in an era that laid the foundation for modern astrophysics. As a communicator of science, Maunder published extensively, conveying complex astronomical concepts to both the academic community and the public. His literary style often intertwined detailed empirical research with a compelling narrative, making his works a vital resource for the understanding of both the historical and technical aspects of astronomy. The relevance of Maunder's research continues to be cited in contemporary studies of solar phenomena and climate, reflecting the enduring impact of his contributions to the field.
