But Rumford’s cannon-boring experiment seemed to disprove a material theory of heat and to show that heat was instead something immate- rial. Rumford went to his desk and started [...] his disbelief the day before – would other scientists believe his claim and abandon the material theory of heat? Rumford’s papers, both the German and the English one, were published in 1798. However,
