应该是William Thomson Kelvin的墓威廉·汤姆森,第一代开尔文男爵(William Thomson, 1st Baron Kelvin,1824年6月26日-1907年12月17日),北爱尔兰出生的英国数学物理学家、工程师。是热力学温标(绝对温标)的发明人,被称为热力学之父。
The Royal Society asked the Dean of Westminster if Kelvin could be buried in the Abbey and he agreed. The funeral was on 23 December and he lies to the south of Sir Isaac Newton's grave in the nave. On the previous night the coffin, covered by a purple pall, had rested in St Faith's chapel. The simple stone reads:
WILLIAM THOMSON LORD KELVIN 1824-1907.
In 1913 a stained glass window, designed by J.Ninian Comper, was erected near the grave. This contains large figures of King Henry V and Abbot William Colchester and below is an inscription
"In memory of Baron Kelvin of Largs. Engineer, Natural Philosopher. B.1824.D.1907".
His coat of arms and those of Glasgow University are shown. The window was the gift of engineers from Great Britain and America.
A photograph of the window and gravestone can be purchased from Westminster Abbey Library.
