Abstract :
After the discovery of the basic laws of electrophysics, many scientists, inventors, and mechanics ventured their work in this new field of physics. Among them was a Leipzig based mechanic Emil Stöhrer who is widely unknown today. However, in particular through a series of articles in prominent scientific journals, his work became known in the scientific community during his lifetime. This paper gives an introduction to his life and work in electrophysics.
