‎First edition of Wilhelm Wien's highly influential paper on the phenomenon of radiation, also known as Wien's displacement law. Wien followed Ludwig Boltzmann's approach when incorporating electrodynamics and thermodynamics in investigating radiation and its characteristics. ""He argued that if a system reaches the same temperature by the increase of temperature or by the adiabatic compression of the volume containing heat radiation, it should yield the same energy distribution. Considering also the Doppler effect of the radiation, Wien arrived at an expression for energy distribution that states that the product of temperature and the wave length is a constant"". (Mathew Chandrankunnel, Philosophy of physics, 2000, 4 p).Wien's empirical observations functioned as a starting point for Max Planck who wanted prove the theoretical foundation for Wien's, wishing thus to justify the entropy law. Today Wien's approximation is also known as Wien-Planck law.This phenomenon was coined ""Wien's displacement law"" because the energy density curve is displaced correspondingly to the temperature"" it implies that the hotter an object is, the shorter the wavelength at which it will release most of its radiation. Wien's description of radiation awarded him the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1911. Wien's constant is today used in a wide range of different aspects of physics, e.g. cosmic microwave background, and the determination of how much energy is emitted from a light bulb.

Wilson...It was a wonderful advance to be able to se, so to speak, the details of the adventures of these particles in their flight through the gas....""(Lord Rutherford).""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."" (Whittaker in ""A History of the Theories of Aether and Electricity."" II, p. 4).‎

‎First English edition of this landmark paper in which the Zeeman-effect was first announced. It is one of the most important and influential discoveries made in the later half of the 19th century. ""The Zeemann effect not only opened a new world of facts which interest the physicist, the chemist, and even the astronomer, but the study also contributed - to an extent much greater than the study of the Stark effect - to the conceptual development of quantum theory"" (Jammer). Together with Lorenz, Zeeman was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for ""the extraordinary service they rendered by their researches into the influence of magnetism upon radiation phenomena"". ""The last experiment performed by Michael Faraday was an unsuccessful attempt to observe the influence of a magnetic field on the spectral lines of sodium. More than 30 years later, Pieter Zeeman took up the challenge and observed a broadening of the lines, which was soon recognized to be the splitting that we know as the Zeeman effect. Zeeman's account of the discovery, translated for Nature from the Proceedings of the Physical Society of Berlin, includes an interpretation based on Hendrik Lorentz's idea of ""small molecular elements charged with electricity"", and a rough calculation of the charge to mass ratio of these ""ions""."" (Nature Physics Portal).""Zeeman is best remembered for his observations in 1896 of the mageto-optic phenomenon that almost immediately was named the Zeeman effect. His experimental discovery was not fortuitous, but the fruition of theoretical views that had motivated attempts over a span of thirty-five years to detect some such interaction between magnetism and light. Zeeman's initial observations were beautifully comprehended by H.A.Lorentz' electromagnetic theory, which also served to guide Zeeman in the very early refinement and extension of his discovery. As a result Zeeman and Lorentz shared the 1902 Nobel Prize for physics in recognition of their accomplishment and of the promise, since overwhelmingly fulfilled, of the Zeeman effect for contributing to the understanding of spectra and the particulate structure of matter.""

‎First edition of Ångström's importent paper on the transformation of heat through materials. Angstrom determined the conductivity of the material of a bar by periodically heating and cooling it. The bar was heated and cooled periodically by passing steam and water at regular intervals through a chamber at one end of the bar ... In this way, the temperature at points along the bar fluctuate periodically and on account of surface radiation the temperature amplitude diminishes as the distance from the region of supply increases.In 1868, Ångström created a spectrum chart of solar radiation that expresses the wavelength of electromagnetic radiation in the electromagnetic spectrum in multiples of one ten-millionth of a millimetre, or 1×10-10 metres. This unit of length later became known as the ångström, Å.‎
