Abstract
Just once in its long history has a Royal Medal been awarded but not presented. John Tyndall FRS (1820-93) was the chosen recipient in 1853 for his early work on diamagnetism but declined to accept it. The story of why Tyndall felt compelled to turn down this considerable honour sheds light on the scientific politics and personal relationships of the time, on the importance given to the study of magnetism, and on Tyndall's own character and career.
摘要
在皇家奖章的漫长历史中，仅有一次奖章已授予但未颁发。皇家学会会员约翰·廷德尔（1820 - 1893）在1853年因其早期关于抗磁性的研究而被选为奖章获得者，但他拒绝接受。廷德尔为何觉得不得不拒绝这一殊荣的故事，揭示了当时的科学政治和人际关系、对磁性研究的重视程度，以及廷德尔自身的性格和职业生涯。
