André-Marie Ampère (born January 20, 1775 in Lyon, France, † June 10, 1836 in Marseille) was a French physicist and mathematician. He was the outstanding experimenter and theorist of early electrodynamics. Ampère explained the concepts of electrical voltage and electrical current and determined the direction of current. The SI unit of electrical current and at the same time the SI unit of magnetic flux were named after him in 1893.
