(单词翻译)
For a century after Dalton made his proposal, it remained entirely1 hypothetical, and a few eminent2 scientists—notably the Viennese physicist3 Ernst Mach, for whom is named the speed of sound—doubted the existence of atoms at all. "Atoms cannot be perceived by the senses... they are things of thought," he wrote. The existence of atoms was so doubtfully held in the German-speaking world in particular that it was said to have played a part in the suicide of the great theoretical physicist, and atomic enthusiast4, Ludwig Boltzmann in 1906.
