He comes from a noble family, whether the Tomcsányi Tomcsinyi, which Iván Nagy in his Hungarian aristocratic works: "Magyarország családai czimerekkel és nemzékrendi táblákkal" Vol. XI, pp. 238-248 leads, I can not specify, at least he comes neither on the Table of this article, even in the genealogical presentation there before. Adam studied mathematics and physics after completing high school at the Pesther University, was at the same time first repetition of philosophy and 1791 Adjunct from the subjects of physics and mechanics. After he had obtained the philosophical doctorate, he came to Warasdin as a professor of physics, economics and natural history, as such in 1798 to Preßburg and 1801 to the University in Pesth, where he died at the age of 76 years [81]. In the printing of his following writings have appeared: "Dissertation of theoria phaenomenorum electricitatis Galvanianae" (Budae 1800, 8 °.); - "Dissertatio de terrae motu in genere ac specie Moorensi anno 1850 XIV. Junii orto" (Budae 1814, 8 °.), Shared with Paul Kitaibel [Vol. XI, p. 337]; - "Institutiones Physicae, quas compendio dedit, Partes tres" (Pestini 1819-1821, editio altera ibid., 1823-1824, 8 °, first edition with eilf, second edition with thirteen plates); in the first volume he deals with the general, in the second with special physics, in the third with astronomy, physical geography, and meteorology.
