BORN MAX. STATISTICAL INTERPRETATION OF QUANTUM MECHANICS
Zur Quantenmechanik der Stossvorg�nge. On the Quantum Mechanics of Collision. Quantenmechanik der Stossvorg�ngee. Quantum Mechanics of Collision. Das Adiabatenprincip in der Quantenmechanik. The Adiabatic Principle in Quantum Physics. In all 3 papers.
Berlin Julius Springer 1926-27. 8vo. Bound in one nice hcalf with gilt borders and gilt lettering to spine. All three papers published in "Zeitschrift f�r Physik". 1. Title-page for volume 37 pp. 863-67. - 2. Title-page for volume 38 pp. 803-27. - 3. Title-page for volume 40 pp.167-192. Title-pages with stamp. Clean and fine. � First editions of all three papers which together constitute Born's main contributions to Quantum Mechanics for which he received the Nobel Prize in physics in 1954. <br><br>In his famous series of papers on wave mechanics Schr�dinger stated his equation describing the behavior of the wave function. However Schr�dinger did not himself arrive at a proper physical interpretation of the wave function itself - this is due to Born. Just a few days after Schr�dinger's fourth and final paper was published Born successfully interpreted the wave function as probability amplitude. His relatively brief paper the first offered here was originally meant to be published in the weekly magazine "Die Naturwissenschaften" but due to lack of space in this journal it was forwarded to the 'Zeitschrift'. The next paper offered with the same title is an elaboration of the first. In the third paper Born used the adiabatic principle to further support his statistical interpretation of quantum mechanics. unknown

BRILLOUIN LEON. THE INDTRODUCTION OF THE "WKB METHOD" IN QUANTUM MECHANICS.
La m�canique ondulatoire de Schr�dinger; une m�thode g�n�rale de r�solution par approximations successives.
Paris Gauthier-Villars et Cie 1926. 4to. Without wrappers. In: "Comptes Rendus Hebdomadaires des S�ances de L'Academie des Sciences" Tome 183 No 1. Pp. 5- 100. Entire issue offered. Brillouin's paper: pp. 24-26. � First appearance of Brillouin's importent paper in which he introduced the WKB-method in quantum Mechanics.<br><br>"In 1925 Brillouin was the only French theoretician to react competently to Werner Heisenberg�s new matrix mechanics. In two papers published in 1926 he contributed to the exploration of the mathematical content of Heisenberg�s theory. Brillouin�s first contribution in this field was important the paper offered. Through a new method of semiclassical approximation he discovered the relation between Schrodinger�s mechanics and the quantum theory of Niels Bohr and Sommerfeld. Presumably inspired by de Broglie�s early analogies between mechanics and optics he found this approximation as the quantum mechanical countet of the approximation. In this procedure stationary solutions of the Schr�dinger equation are sought in the form eiS/h as in the eikonal approximation of optics. In the first approximation h small S must be a solution of the Hamilton-Jacobi equation of classical mechanics and the Bohr-Sommerfeld conditions S = 2pnh on a closed trajectory must be satisfied for the W function to be defined and singlevalued in all space. Subsequent corrections are proportional to successive powers of h. They intermix the various Bohr trajectories. thereby reintroducing the complex interplay of quantum states found in matrix mechanics This method published by Brillouin in July 1926 - anticipated by Harold Jeffreys in 1923 in a purely mathematical context reinvented by Gregor Wentzel in September 1926. and perfected by Hendrik Kramers in November 1926 - is now called the J BWK method and is widely used in many quantum mechanical problems."DSB.<br>See also Max Jammer "The Conceptual development of Quantum Mechanics" pp. 277 ff. unknown

BROGLIE LOUIS de. DISCOVERY OF THE WAVE THEORY OF MATTER AND CREATION OF WAVE MECHANICS.
A Tentative Theory of Light Quanta.
London Taylor and Francis 1924. Later full buckram gilt lettering to spine. In: Philosophical Magazine conducted by Oliver Joseph Lodge etc." Vol. 47. - Sixth Series. VIII1168 pp. and 8 plates. Entire volume offered. De Broglie's paper: pp. 446-458. Internally clean and fine. � First English version of the papers which ESTABLISHED A NEW ERA IN PHYSICS by introducing the epochal new principle that particle-wave duality should apply not only to radiation but also to matter and thus CREATING QUANTUM MECHANICS. The English paper is a translation of de Broglie's 3 "Notes " which he published in "Comptes Rendus" in September and October 1923 Ondes et quanta. - Quanta de lumi�re diffraction et interf�rences. - Les quanta la th�orie cin�tique des gaz et le principe de Fermat. These 3 papers were extended to form his doctoral thesis of 1924 "Recherches sur la Th�orie des Quanta." - This English edition of the papers was published before his thesis of 1924 as the paper is dated October 1 1923 and published here in the Februar issue of Philosophical Magazine months before the thesis.<br>The English version contains furthermore an addition a postscript which contains a generalization of the theory which is consistent with the special theory of relativity and NOT published in "Comptes Rendues" in 1923.<br><br>With the three communications to the Academy of Sciences the 3 Comptes Rendus papers in the fall of 1923 de Broglie had presented the main ideas of his unified dynamics of light quanta and atoms. He was confident enough about his results that he submitted them also in English in the offered paper. At the end of the paper he summarized his results. <br><br>De Broglie relates "After long reflection in solitude and meditation I suddenly had the idea during the year 1923 that the discovery made by Einstein in 1905 should be generalized by extending it to all material particles and notably to electrons" Preface to his PhD thesis 1924.<br><br>"He made the leap in his September 10 1923 paper: E=hv should hold not only for photons but also for electrons to which he assigns a 'fictitious associated wave'. In his September 24 paper he indicated the direction in which one 'should seek experimental confirmations of our ideas': a stream of electrons traversing an aperture whose dimensions are small compared with the wavelenght of the electron waves 'should show diffraction phenomena' ."Pais "Subtle is the Lord" pp. 425-436.<br><br>In the third paper October 8 he discusses "The interplay between the propagation of the particle and of the waves could be expressed in more formal terms as an identity between the fundamental variational principles of Pierre de Fermat rays and Pierre Louis Maupertuis particles as de Broglie discussed it further in his last communication . Therein he also considered some thermodynamic consequences of his generalized wave-particle duality. He showed in particular how one could using Lord Rayleigh�s 1900 formula for the number of stationary modes for phase waves obtain Planck�s division of the mechanical phase space into quantum cells.<br><br>Louis de Broglie achieved a worldwide reputation for his discovery of the wave theory of matter for which he received the Nobel Prize for physics in 1929. His work was extended into a full-fledged wave mechanics by Erwin Schr�dinger and thus contributed to the creation of quantum mechanics. After an early attempt to propose a deterministic interpretation of his theory de Broglie joined the Copenhagen school�s mainstream noncausal interpretation of the quantum theory."DSB.<br><br>"This idea i.e. de Broglie's that matter might behave as waves was tested and confirmed by Davisson and Germer in 1927. Thus the duality of both light and matter had been established and physicists had to come to terms with fundamental particles which defied simple theories and demanded two sets of 'complementary' descriptions each applicable under certain circumstances but incompatible with one another." Printing and the Mind of Man 417.<br><br>This volume of Philosophical Magazine contains another importent paper in the history of Quantum Mechanics": "The Quantum Theory of Radiation" by BOHR KRAMERS AND SLATER pp. 785-802. <br><br>"After Kramers had succeeded in extending the scope of the correspondence argument to the theory of optical dispersion "thus rounding off a treatment of the interaction of atomic systems with radiation that accounted for all emission absorption and scattering processes" Bohr ventured to propose a systematic formulation of the whole theory in which what he called the virtual character of the classical model was emphasized. In this he was aided by Kramers and a young American visitor J. C. Slater and the new theory was published in 1924 under the authorship of all three. The most striking feature of this remarkable paper "The Quantum Theory of Radiation" was the renunciation of the classical form of causality in favor of a purely statistical description. Even the distribution of energy and momentum between the radiation field and the "virtual oscillators" constituting the atomic systems was assumed to be statistical the conservation laws being fulfilled only on the average. This was going too far: the paper was hardly in print before A. H. Compton and A. W. Simon had established by direct experiment the strict conservation of energy and momentum in an individual process of interaction between atom and radiation. Nevertheless this short-lived attempt exerted a profound influence on the course of events; what remained after its failure was the conviction that the classical mode of description of the atomic processes had to be entirely relinquished."

Entire volume: LIV 960 pp. advertisements and wrappers. � The important Nature-printing - a summary of his three papers published in "Comptes rendus" the same year - of De Broglie's landmark discovery of the wave nature of matter. "In order to reach an audience wider than the limited readership of the Comptes rendus de Broglie arranged the publication of a summary of his results in NatureOctober 1923." DSB.<br><br>His discovery established a new era in physics by introducing the epochal new principle that particle-wave duality should apply not only to radiation but also to matter and thus creating quantum mechanics. It was extended to form his doctoral thesis of 1924 "Recherches sur la Th�orie des Quanta."<br><br>De Broglie relates "After long reflection in solitude and meditation I suddenly had the idea during the year 1923 that the discovery made by Einstein in 1905 should be generalized by extending it to all material particles and notably to electrons" Preface to his PhD thesis 1924.<br><br>"He made the leap in his September 10 1923 paper: E=hv should hold not only for photons but also for electrons to which he assigns a 'fictitious associated wave'. In his September 24 paper he indicated the direction in which one 'should seek experimental confirmations of our ideas': a stream of electrons traversing an aperture whose dimensions are small compared with the wavelenght of the electron waves 'should show diffraction phenomena' ."Pais "Subtle is the Lord" pp. 425-436.<br><br>In the third paper October 8 he discusses "The interplay between the propagation of the particle and of the waves could be expressed in more formal terms as an identity between the fundamental variational principles of Pierre de Fermat rays and Pierre Louis Maupertuis particles as de Broglie discussed it further in his last communication . Therein he also considered some thermodynamic consequences of his generalized wave-particle duality. He showed in particular how one could using Lord Rayleigh's 1900 formula for the number of stationary modes for phase waves obtain Planck's division of the mechanical phase space into quantum cells.<br><br>Louis de Broglie achieved a worldwide reputation for his discovery of the wave theory of matter for which he received the Nobel Prize for physics in 1929. His work was extended into a full-fledged wave mechanics by Erwin Schr�dinger and thus contributed to the creation of quantum mechanics. After an early attempt to propose a deterministic interpretation of his theory de Broglie joined the Copenhagen school's mainstream noncausal interpretation of the quantum theory."DSB.<br><br>"This idea i.e. de Broglie's that matter might behave as waves was tested and confirmed by Davisson and Germer in 1927. Thus the duality of both light and matter had been established and physicists had to come to terms with fundamental particles which defied simple theories and demanded two sets of 'complementary' descriptions each applicable under certain circumstances but incompatible with one another."
