STROMEYER STROHMEYER FRIEDRICH. THE DISCOVERY OF CADMIUM.
Ueber das Kadmium. Eine Darstellung der Resultate des ersten Theils seiner Untersuchungen �ber dieses vo ihm in dem Zink und den Zinkoxyden entdeckte neue Metall.
Leipzig Johann Ambrosius Barth 1819. Without wrappers as issued in "Annalen der Physik. Hrsg. von Ludwig Wilhelm Gilbert" Bd. 60 Heft 2 = Jahrgang 1818 zehntes St�ck. Pp. 113-218 a. 1 engraved plate map. The entire issue offered Heft 2. Stromeyer's paper pp. 193-210. Clean and fine. � First appearance of Strohmeyer's account of his discovery of Cadmium. The history of its discovery was very complicated as some <br>other laid claim to its discovery.<br><br>Stromeyer was inspector general of apothecaries in Hannover. "In 1817 fulfilling the duties of his office he came across an apothecary's shop in which a bottle labeled zinc oxide contained zinc carbonate. Following this up Stromeyer found himself interested in zinc carbonate which turned yellow on strong heating as though it contained iron as an impurity yet it contained no iron. He traced the yellow to an oxide not of zinc but of a hitherto unknown metal rather like it chemically. He named it cadmium for a zinc ore in which it is usually found accompanying the zinc."Asimov.<br><br>Weeks "Discovery of the Elements" pp. 135-39. unknown

SZENT GYORGI ALBERT. DISCOVERY OF VITAMIN C NOBEL PRIZE 1937
Observation on the function of peroxidase systems and the chemistry of the adrenal cortex. Description of a new corbohydrate derivative.
London Cambridge University Press 1928. Royal8vo. In the original printed wrappers. In "The Biochemical Journal" Vol. 22 1928. Entire issue offered. Wrappers with nicks and ligt overall soiling. A tear to last 7 leaves. Internally fine and clean. Pp. 1387-1409. Entire issue: Pp. 8 1341-1575 2 XIV 1. � First printing of Szent-Gy�rgyi's landmark paper in which he for the first time discovered and isolated "hexuronic acid" or "ascorbic acid" today commonly known as vitamin C. In 1937 he was awarded the Nobel in Medicine "for his discoveries in connection with the biological combustion processes with special reference to vitamin C and the catalysis of fumaric acid".<br><br>"Szent-Gy�rgyi is most notably associated with the discovery of vitamin C. The discovery of vitamins themselves was recognized in 1929 in a Nobel Prize to Christiaan Eijkman and Gowland Hopkins. The search for vitamin C was then well underway in several labs. Ironically the compound had already been isolated by Szent-Gy�rgyi. Though no one-not even Szent-Gy�rgyi-yet knew its identity." DSB. <br><br>"In 1928 Szent-Gy�rgyi had proposed that hexuronic acid a highly reducing substance that he had isolated from oranges cabbages and adrenal glands was responsible for the anti-scurvy properties of fruit and vegetables that is that hexuronic acid was vitamin C. Zilva disagreed citing work that he had done showing that vitamin activity and reducing power were independent of one another. There the matter lay for four years until in 1932 Szent-Gy�rgyi carried out experiments to see whether hexuronic acid would protect guinea pigs from scurvy which it indeed did". Smith Nutrition in Britain P. 45. <br> <br>At the same time for five years King's laboratory at the University of Pittsburgh had been trying to isolate the antiscorbutic factor in lemon juice using the original 1907 model of scorbutic guinea pigs which developed scurvy when not fed fresh foods but were cured by lemon juice. They had also considered hexuronic acid but had been put off the trail when a coworker made the explicit and mistaken experimental claim that this substance was not the antiscorbutic substance. <br>Finally in late 1931 Szent-Gy�rgyi gave Svirbely formerly of King's lab the last of his hexuronic acid with the suggestion that it might be the anti-scorbutic factor. By the spring of 1932 King's laboratory had proven this but published the result without giving Szent-Gy�rgyi credit for it leading to a bitter dispute over priority claims.<br><br>Garrison & Morton 1059 unknown

SZILARD LEO. THE DISCOVERY OF NUCLEAR CHAIN REACTION
Improvements in or relating to the Transmutation of Chemical Elements. British patent No.: 630726.
Leamington Spa His Majestry's Stationary Office by the Currier Press 1949 - Application date: 1934. 8vo. Extracted with traces after stitching in left margin. With a small stamp to top of first leaf. Fine and clean. 8 pp. 5 plates depicting 8 figures 2 of them being detached. � Scarce original printed patent for what is one of the most important invention in the second half of the twentieth century namely the nuclear chain reaction. Szil�rd realized that if a nuclear reaction produced neutrons which then caused further nuclear reactions the process might be self-perpetuating thereby anticipating Hahn and Strassman's discovery of fission by five years and the famous Fermi-patent patent no. 465045. PMM 422A by a year. Furthermore Szilard introduced the concept of a 'critical mass': "if the thickness is larger than the critical value . it can produce an explosion" from the present patent the earliest understanding that a chain reaction potentially can lead to an explosion - that is the Atom-Bomb.<br> <br>The patent was entirely theoretical when filed Szilard had no idea whether a nuclear chain reaction was possible or what materials might sustain one a fact which caused many of his colleagues initially to dismiss it as being too speculative. However after the discovery of fission in late 1938/early 1939 the visionary aspects of Szilard's work suddenly became evident. <br><br>Szilard filed for the patent in June 1934 and it was granted to him in April 1935. It was however not published until 1949 the reason for this was: <br>"Szilard had a theoretical understanding of what substances might work to release energy and produce radioactive substances via chain reaction. The funds he needed to confirm his theory were not available to him. By 1936 Szilard became so concerned about the possiblity of Nazi scientists understanding his patents and using them to construct an atomic bomb that he asked the British Patent Office to withdrew the patents and to assign them to the Royal Navy in secret. This was done. The patents were not published until 1949. In the meantime the patents were passed to the University of California San Diego. They reside in archives there today." Paul Langley's Nuclear History. <br><br>"Nuclear Scientist Szilard started work in nuclear physics in 1934 at St. Bartholomew�s Hospital London England and by the late 1930s he had become part of the distinguished group of top atomic scientists. In London Szilard started to experiment with Thomas A. Chalmers on radioactive elements. They produced a method for the separation of a radioactive element from the mass of the stable element. They also separated photo neutrons from beryllium a process that ultimately resulted in the possibility for inducing the fission process that was of critical importance for war-related nuclear research. This discovery later provided the key to the problem of the chain reaction. Szilard also found that radium-beryllium photo neutrons represented a useful tool in nuclear research. His British experiments proved of value for the discovery and investigation of neutron emission of uranium on which a chain reaction is based. Szilard was invited to the Clarendon Laboratory in Oxford in 1935." DSB.<br><br>In 1941 the Nobel laureate Eugene P. Wigner recalled that Szilard�s patent applications of 1934-1935 contained references to pure neutron chains in which the links of the chain are formed by neutrons of the mass number 1 alone. "In spring 1934 Szilard applied for a provisional British patent on a chain-reacting system based on the concept that beryllium may give off two neutrons when reacting with one slow neutron. A year later he filed a patent application a part of which was assigned to the British Admiralty as a sealed secret. Szilard�s patents described methods of production of fast protons one of which became the cyclotron as well as the production of radioactive elements by bombardment of fast protons and alpha-particles by neutrons. His patents also included a method for the artificial production of radioactive bodies based on a process discovered by Enrico Fermi." DSB unknown

Invention and Discovery.
8vo., First Edition, with a frontispiece (original tissue guard present) and 13 full-page illustrations in the text; original pictorial cloth blocked and lettered in gilt and colours, gilt back, gilt top, patterned endpapers, upper hinge starting (but binding entirely sound), a very good, bright, clean copy in publisher's original pictorial binding. Engaging accounts of over 120 major inventions and discoveries told with characteristic late Victorian aplomb. Scarce, especially in this condition.
