‎First appearance of Schmidt's paper on the emanation of phosphorus.""In 1900 Schmidt became professor ordinarius of physics at the Forstakademie in Eberswalde but soon moved to Erlangen as professor extraordinarius (1901-1904). He then went to Königsberg as professor ordinarius and director of the physical institute (1904-1908) and finally to Münster, where he occupied the chair once held by Hittorf, whom Schmidt admired and commemorated in several addresses. Schmidt retired from this post in 1935.During these years, Schmidt studied canal-ray and cathode-ray phenomena, the electrical conductivity of salt vapors, solid electrolytes, adsorption, passivity, and luminescence. He was unusually vigorous and healthy until the last year of his life, when he fractured his hipbone and was hospitalized. Shortly after he was released, he suffered a stroke and died.""(DSB)‎
