In physics, the term solenoid refers to a long, thin loop of wire, often wrapped around a metallic core, which produces a magnetic field when an electric current is passed through it. Solenoids are important because they can create controlled magnetic fields and can be used as electromagnets. The term solenoid refers specifically to a magnet designed to produce a uniform magnetic field in a volume of space (where some experiment might be carried out).""The volume contains further importent papers by Poisson ""Sur la Chaleur rayonnante"", pp. 225-246 + Note.. pp. 442-44, Gay-Lussac, Savart, Pelletier et Caventou, Becquerel etc.‎

‎First edition of Anderson's seminal paper, in which he laid the foundation for a quantum-mechanical theory of transport in systems with a certain generic type of disorder involving onsite energy randomness. This is also known as the Anderson localization. On the basis of the discovery presented in the present article which led to investigations into the electronic structure of magnetic and disordered systems, Anderson was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1977. The discovery has allowed for the development of electronic switching and memory devices in computers.""Disorder-induced electron localization, i.e. Anderson localization, was first predicted by Andersonin 1958 [in the present paper]. In his pioneering paper, the continuity or discontinuity of the energy spectrum of electrons on a diagonally disordered system is related to their localization property."" (Nakayama, Fractal concepts in condensed matter physics, 2003, p. 117)""Anderson's model ushered in a new quantum mechanical view of metal-insulator transitions. And in the early 1960s, Nevill Mott introduced the notion of a mobility edge that separates extended and localized states. The idea of a mobility edge would develop into one of the most studied concepts of condensed-matter physics. For their work on disordered systems, Anderson, his thesis adviser John van Vleck, and Mott shared the 1977 Nobel Prize in Physics.Ironically, Anderson's 1958 paper hardly got noticed at first"" it was cited just 30 times in the first 10 years. Today, it's been cited over 4000 times, though too often as an ""unrecognizable monster"" as described by its creator in 1983. Indeed, theoreticians have found a variety of ways to look at localization - from scale-dependent diffusion and fractal wavefunctions to quantum chaos, dense-point spectra, and kicked rotors.""

‎First appearance of this important paper which constitute the first description of the fundamental principles behind modern high power linear beam microwave electron tubes.""They described a transit-time tube in which the three characteristic features"" velocity modulation, phase focusing, and energy transfer were designed to occur in three separate regions, an arrangement which is also characteristic of a klystron. Further they demonstrated, in my opinion for the first time, that it is necessary, in order to achieve high RF power output, to use a linear electron beam, and that the beam must be positioned in such a way as to prevent the electrons from landing on RF electrodes - they must only be allowed to penetrate the fringe field of the RF electrodes, finally landing on a separate electrode, now called the collector. This arrangement made it possible to separate high frequency from beam guiding electrodes, thus permitting the use of high power electron beams"" (Sarkar, History of Wireless). ""which outlined the fundamental working principles of the klystron tube, a high power microwave oscillator, used to provide the transmitter power in the newly developed radar equipment. Leaving Arsenjeva in Russia, he later moved to the UK to continue development work on the klystron with Standard Telephones and Cables (STC), the UK arm of ITT. The day before England went to war with Germany Heil slipped out of the country returning to Germany to continue his work at Standard Electric Lorentz (SEL), ITT's German arm in Berlin. Heil's klystrons, known as ""Heil's Generators"", became key components in Germany's World War II radars.""""After the war Heil's name appeared on an FBI list of Germans accused of war crimes. He was brought to the US by the military and worked at Wright Patterson Air Force Base. Subsequently he formed his own company and carried out intensive research the physiology of the human ear and sound generation by small animals which he applied to the design of sound transducers.

‎First edition of Balmer's seminal paper on spectral lines of the hydrogen atom which today is known as Balmer series, the first discovery of a mathematical relationsship between the frequencies of atomic spectral lines. Balmer's discovery was the decisive factor in Bohr's famous and groundbreaking discovery and description of his model of atomic structure published in 1913. ""As soon as I saw Balmer's formula, the whole thing was immediately clear to me"" Bohr told Leon Rosenfeld in an interview. (Heilbron, Historical studies in the theory of atomic structure, p. 265).The discovery that sets of lines in the spectra of alkalis and alkaline earth are related in series was discovered by G. D. Liveing in 1879 but Balmer discovered a simple formula (presented in the present paper) how to relate the wavelength of a series of line in the visible spectrum of hydrogen. The Balmer series was far from similar to the more simple ratio proposed by George Stoney. Although Balmers fomular linked together the four then known hydrogen spectra and turned out to by applicable for the ultraviolet and infrared spectra of hydrogen a complete understandig of the relations came first with Bohr in 1913.""What Balmer did is slightly incredible. Having at his disposal four frequencies measured by Åndgtröm, he fitted them with a mathematical expression that predicts an infinity of lines - and his formula is in fact correct! Balmer's formula has stood the test of time as more hydrogen lines kept being discovered. Soon his results became widely known"" they were quoted in the 1912 edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica. For nearly thirty years no one knew, however, what the formula was trying to say - then Bohr came along."" (Pais. Niels Bohr's Times, pp. 142-3).Due to the relatively large occurrences of hydrogen in the universe the Balmer lines are useful in astronomy since the spectral classification of stars, which is primarily a determination of surface temperature, is based on the relative strength of spectral lines.(Appeared simultaneously in Verhandlungen der Naturforschenden Gesellschaft in Basel, Vol. 7, 1885, pp. 548-556, 750-752).Other papers of interest contained in the present volume:Lorenz, L.

The theory turned out to be very successful in explaining in considerable detail the properties of superconductors. The theory also predicted new effects and stimulated an intensive activity in theoretical and experimental research.
