The previous youngest was probably James Wilkinson in 1939, aged 19 years and nine months. [7] The youngest up to 1909 were Alfred Flux in 1887, aged 20 years and two months [ 8 ] and Peter Tait in 1852, aged 20 years and eight months.
James Clerk Maxwell FRS FRSE (13 June 1831 – 5 November 1879) was a Scottish physicist and mathematician [1] who was responsible for the classical theory of electromagnetic radiation, which was the first theory to describe electricity, magnetism and light as different manifestations of the same phenomenon.
It is named in honour of James Clerk Maxwell. The first medal was awarded in 1962 to Abdus Salam. Past recipients include subsequent Nobel Prize in Physics laureates (Abdus Salam, David Thouless, Anthony James Leggett, John Michael Kosterlitz) and Lucasian Professors of Mathematics (Stephen Hawking, Michael Green, and Michael Cates).
The James Clerk Maxwell Medal and Prize is awarded annually (previously between 1962 and 1970, every two years) to recognize outstanding early-career contributions to theoretical physics. [ 55 ] The Henry Moseley Medal and Prize is awarded for exceptional early career contributions to experimental physics [ 56 ]

James Clerk Maxwell. By the first half of the 19th century, the understanding of electromagnetics had improved through many experiments and theoretical work. In the 1780s, Charles-Augustin de Coulomb established his law of electrostatics. In 1825, André-Marie Ampère published his force law.
