Nomenclature

  • Named for William Allen Miller FRS (December 17, 1817 – September 30, 1870), a British scientist. Although primarily a chemist, the scientific contributions for which Miller is mainly remembered today are in spectroscopy and astrochemistry, new fields in his time.
  • On Fauth's 1932 sectional map of "Hörbiger" (Deslandres) -- reproduced on page 269 of Ashbrook (in a chapter reprinted from Sky and Telescope, October 1965, p. 202) -- the name Miller is assigned to the IAU's Lexell A (a 34 km crater to the northwest of the IAU's Miller). In addition to Miller, all satellite feature letters given by Fauth in the upper left quadrant of this map differ from the current IAU names (although they agree elsewhere). - Jim Mosher
  • It might be intereresting to add Dayton Clarence Miller (1866-1941), American physicist, astronomer, acoustician, and accomplished amateur flautist.- DannyCaes Mar 21, 2015
  • Also very interesting to know: Stanley Lloyd Miller (1930-2007), Jewish-American chemist who made landmark experiments in the origin of life (the Urey-Miller experiment).- DannyCaes Mar 23, 2015
