This scientist performed an experiment in which a container with air at 22 atmospheres is allowed to expand into an evacuated container and the temperature change is measured. He's the first namesake of a coefficient that is the derivative of temperature with respect to pressure, and the inversion temperature is the point where that coefficient changes from positive to negative. He's the first namesake of an effect in which a gas is allowed to expand through a porous barrier (*) isenthalpically, also known as a throttling process. The unit named for him has dimensions of kilograms meters squared per second squared and he names an isenthalpic process with Thomson. For 10 points, name this scientist who names the SI u
