In the years following, this was overshadowed by the foundational scemes of Hilbert's nitary consistency program and Brouwer's intuitionistic redevelopment of mathematics. In fact, nor long after his own venture, Weyl became a convert to Brouwerian intuitionism and critized his old teachers program. Over the years, though, he became more and more pessimistic about the practical possibilities of reworking mathematics along intuitionistic lines, and pointed to the value of his own early foundational works. Weyl's work ""Das Kontinuum"" has come to be recognized for its importence as the opening chapter in the actual development of predicative mathematics, whose extent has been plumbed both mathematically and logically since the 1960'ties.""

The paper appears to have inspired Dirac's fascination with the large number hypothesis.Also contain in this volume is the first appearance of EÖTVÖS' important paper in which he explains the eastward deflection of falling objects. In the paper, he also describes a device with which the effect can be demonstrated experimentally.The Eötvös effect is the change in perceived gravitational force caused by the change in centrifugal acceleration resulting from eastbound or westbound velocity. When moving eastbound, the object's angular velocity is increased (in addition to the earth's rotation), and thus the centrifugal force also increases, causing a perceived reduction in gravitational force. This phenomenon had been observed in the early 20th century on research ships on which gravity was measured" they noticed that measurements of g yielded smaller values when the ship went eastward, and larger ones when they went westward. These observations are mentioned by Eötvös in a paper in which he provides the explanation of the effect.‎ 书商的参考编号 : 50281	Livre Rare Book Herman H. J.

In contemporary half cloth with gilt lettering to spine. In ""Zeitschrift für Fhysik"", vol. 46. Entire volume offered. Library stamp to title page. Pp. 1-46. [Entire volume: VII, (1), 902 pp.].‎ ‎First printing of Weyl's exceedingly important paper which initially did not attract much attention but ""its repercussion turned out to be remarkably strong in the long range"". (Scholz, Weyl Entering the ’New’ Quantum Mechanics Discourse , p. 14). In it Weyl put forth an analysis of the foundations of quantum mechanics.""Weyl's (1927) paper, referred to by Yang above, is entitled Quantenmechanik und Gruppentheorie (Quantum Mechanics and Group Theory). In it, Weyl provides an analysis of the foundations of quantum mechanics and he emphasizes the fundamental role Lie groups play in that theory. Weyl begins the paper by raising two questions: (1) how do I arrive at the self-adjoint operators, which represent a given quantity of a physical system whose constitution is known, and (2), what is the physical interpretation of these operators and which physical consequences can be derived from them? Weyl suggests that while the second question has been answered by von Neumann, the first question has not yet received a satisfactory answer, and Weyl proposes to provide one with the help of group theory."" (SEP)Weyl’s approach to quantization was so general that for decades to come it did not attract much attention of physicists. At the beginning it even attracted very few successor investigations inside mathematics and was not noticed in the foundation of QM discourse, which was exclusively shaped by the Hilbert and von Neumann view until the 1950s. Although the immediate reception of Weyl’s early contributions to QM until about 1927, in particular his (Weyl 1927), was very sparse, its repercussion turned out to be remarkably strong in the long range:""1. A first and immediate next step was made by Marshall Stone and John von Neumann. They both took up Weyl’s statement of a uniquely determined structure of irreducible unitary ray representations. The result of this work is (for finite n) the now famous Stone/von Neumann representation theorem.2. A second line of repercussions may be seen in that part of the work of E. Wigner and V. Bargmann, which dealt with unitary and semi-unitary ray representations. In particular Wigner’s now famous work (at the time among physicists completely neglected) on the irreducible unitary ray representations of the Poincar´e group (Wigner 1939) looks like a next step beyond Weyl’s non-relativistic quantum kinematics from 1927. 3. A third impact is clearly to be seen in George Mackeys’s work. Mackey expressedly took up Weyl’s perspective (Mackey 1949) and developed it into a broader program for the study of irreducible unitary representations of group extensions.4.Finally, Weyl quantization was taken up by mathematical physicists from the later 1960s onwards with the rise of deformation quantization (Pool 1966). Here the starting point was the idea to translate the operator product introduced by Weyl’s own quantization.The last two points lead straight into very recent developments of mathematical physics.""

In doing this calculation [Weisskopf] made a sign error, which was quickly pointed out by Wendell Furry"" when this was taken into account, the result was a self-energy that diverged logarithmically as the electron's radius a tended to zero (1934). This was an astonishing result: Classical electrodynamics was long known to produce a linear divergence, and the one-particle version of QED, already mentioned, yielded a quadratically divergent self-energy. The ""soft"" logarithmic divergence of QED with electrons and positrons was a first indication that QED might be made a tractable theory"" (Jackson, Victor Frederick Weisskopf).Later Feynman, Schwinger and Tomonago shared the 1965 Nobel Prize in Physics ""for their fundamental work in quantum electrodynamics [QED], with deep ploughing consequences for the physics of elementary particels"".‎ 书商的参考编号 : 49053	Livre Rare Book Herman H.

In most cases it was found that the track of the particle is a straight, or nearly straight line.""C.T.R. Wilson had been developing his cloud-chamber, which was to provide the most powerfull of all methods of investigation in atomic physics. In moist air, if a certain degree of supersaturation is exceeded this can be secured by a sudden expansion of the air) condensation takes place on dust-nuclei, when any are present: if by preliminary operations condensation is made to take place on the dust-nuclei, and the resulting droplets are allowed to settle, the air in the chamber is thereby freed from dust. If now X-rays or radiation from a radioactive substance are passed into the chamber, and if the degree of supersaturation is sufficient, condensation again takes place: this is due to the production of ions by the radiation. Thus the tracks of ionising radiations can be made visible by the sudden expansion of a moist gas, each ion becoming the centre of a visible globule of water. Wilson showed that the ions produced by uranium radiation were identical with those produced by X-rays.""

By using the Cloud Chamber he was here (1911) able to observe the track of an alpha ray by condensing water drops onto the ions produced by its passage.The Cloud Chamber, which Rutherford called ""the most original apparatus in the whole history of physics"", became standard equipment in physics laboratories, and made possible numerous important discoveries in the fields of particle and nuclear physicsAfter 1896 ""Wilson continued to experiment with ultraviolet radiation and other techniques for producing condensation effects, but soon concentrated on atmospheric electricity, not returning to the cloud chamber until December 1910. He designed an improved chamber with new methods of illumination and the possibility of photographing the results. At this time Wilson realized that it might be possible to reveal the track of an a ray by condensing water drops onto the ions produced by its passage. During March 1911 he saw this effect produced in his apparatus. Thus, the elucidation of phenomena seen in the Scottish hills led to the possibility of studying the processes of radioactivity, and the Wilson cloud chamber became an important piece of laboratory equipment. But it was in the study of cosmic rays that it achieved its full power, particularly in the refined form developed by Patrick Blackett, in which it was possible to study particles of very high energy and the production of electron-positron pairs with the chamber situated in a strong magnetic field.""
