Einstein, Albert; Ernst G Straus AND Chandrasekhar S
Corrections and Additional Remarks to Our Paper Einstein & Strauss WITH On a New Theory of Weizsäcker on the Origin of the Solar System in Reviews of Modern Physics 18 January 1946 pp. 148-149; pp. 94-103
Lancaster: American Physical Society 1946. 1st Edition. FIRST EDITION IN ORIGINAL WRAPS OF SIGNIFICANT CORRECTIONS & ADDITIONS BY EINSTEIN & STRAUS TO AN IMPORTANT PAPER; AS WELL A PAPER BY CHANDRASEKHAR ON THE ORIGIN OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM. <br /> <br /> In 1945 Albert Einstein and Ernst G. Straus introduced their Swiss cheese model of the universe in a paper entitled "The Influence of the Expansion of Space on the Gravitation Fields Surrounding the Individual Stars". Weil 216. The following year they published "Corrections and Additional Remarks to Our Paper" the 1945 paper the paper offered here. <br /> <br /> In early 1945 Einstein returned to long held cosmological questions as he sought to try to understand whether the expansion of the universe caused the solar system to expand as well — or more specifically the influence of the expansion of space on the gravitational field in the neighborhood of a star. Working with Straus the two began studying the effect of inhomogeneities in an expanding model. <br /> <br /> "By the spring of 1945 Einstein and Straus had found a new type of possible universe using Einstein's equations. It described a universe which looked largely like one of the simple expanding universes of Friedmann and Lemaître containing material like galaxies which exerted no pressure. But it has spherical regions removed from it like bubbles in a Swiss cheese. Each empty hole then had a mass placed at its centre. The mass was equal in magnitude to what had been excavated to create the hole. This was a step towards a more realistic universe in which the matter was not smoothly spread with the same density everywhere but gathered up into lumps like galaxies which were spread about in empty space. Barrow The Book of Universes 106-107. <br /> <br /> ALSO INCLUDED: S. Chandrasekhar's "On a New Theory of Weizsäcker on the Origin of the Solar System". In 1945 C. F. v. Weizsäcker proposed a new theory of the origin of the solar system which appeared to merit consideration. Weizsäcker argued "that there would be turbulence in the solar nebula which would give rise to the formation of eddies having angular motion opposite to that of the rotation of the nebula" Abhyankar The Origin BASI 26 339. Weizsäcker's "principal idea was to regard the formation of a planetary system around a star as a possible last stage in the formation of the star itself" Chandrasekhar 1946 94. He believed that "the protoplanets were supposed to have formed at the sites of the ball bearing eddies and the merger of the protoplanets in the same orbit produced the known planets" Abhyankar 343. In the paper offered here the Indian American astrophysicist S. Chandrasekhar challenged Weizsäcker's theory and showed "that there will be a wide spectrum of turbulence with smaller eddies within the larger ones and there would be no regular pattern as suggested by Weizsäcker. Further the life time of the eddies will be too short for the formation of the planets" ibid. In other words Chandrasekhar's work "indicated that the regular pattern of vortices originally postulated by Weizsäcker could not occur but instead must be replaced by a range of eddy sizes" Brush A History of Modern Planetary Physics 14. Chandrasekhar's work led to the abandonment of Weizsäcker's theories. <br /> <br /> INCLUDED: Nobel Prize winner Percy Williams Bridgman's "Recent Work in the Field of High Pressures" pp. 1-94 an important review of work done in the field of high pressure physics between Bridgman's seminal 1930 work and 1946 the year he won the prize and R. Samuel's "The Dissociation Spectra of Covalent Polyatomic Molecules" pp. 103-148. CONDITION & DETAILS: Lancaster: American Physical Society. Complete issue in original wraps. 4to. 10.5 x 8 inches; 263 x 200mm. Very slight wear at the edges of the wraps and head and foot of the spine; small closed tear see images.

Das Prinzip von der Erhaltung der Schwerpunktsbewegung und die Trägheit der Energie; Principle of the Conservation of the centre of mass motion and the inertia of energy.
Leipzig Johann Ambrosius Barth 1906. Bound in a fine recent hmorocco. Gilt lettering on spine. "Annalen der Physik" Bd. 20 Heft 8 pp. 433-640. The Einstein paper pp. 627-633. <br/><br/><em>First edition of this paper in the periodical form in which Einstein shows that the conservation of mass is a special application of his energy principle E= Mc2 - "Einstein considers a weightless horizontal cylinder filled with electromagnetic radiation and closed to the external world. A certain amount of radiating energy E moves from the left end of the cylinder to the right end transferring a certain amount of momentum due to radiation pressure to the left end which translates the cylinder to the left. When the radiation arrives at the right end the motion stops. We now imagine that a practically massless body absorbs this radiation moves back to the left and deposits it to its original state. Then the body moves back to right end into its original position. Now a complete cycle has taken place the system is back in its original state but the center of mass has moved by a certain amount to the left. This process can be repeated any number of times with the result that a body all by itself without any external forces can change its centre of mass by an arbitrary amount in contradiction to all physical evidence. This conclusion is avoided if we assume that the energy E is associated with the mass M=E/c2 in which case the centre of mass remains permanently at rest in agreement with our ecpectations."

Sammelband containing the original papers on the special and general theories of relativity with a foreword by O. Blumenthal. It is in Minkowski's famous paper Raum und Zeit Space and time that he proposes the concept of time as the fourth dimension and initiates a mathematical study that became the basis of the later development of the theory. Included here is the re-issue of that work by Einstein and Lorentz with notes by A. Sommerfeld published after Minkowski's untimely death along with other papers by the two scientists whose works led to the abandonment of space and time as separate entities. <br /> <br /> Weil 59; see Printing & the Mind of Man 401.

EINSTEIN, Albert, & Walther Mayer
Die Diracgleichungen fuer Semivektoren.
Amsterdam: Koninklijke Akademie van Wetenschappen 1933. First edition offprint issue of the second of Einstein and Mayer's four classic papers on semi-vectors in which they aimed to incorporate the Dirac equation into the general theory of relativity. "By introducing semi-vectors Einstein wanted to arrive at a mathematically simpler and more general formulation of spinors. The semi-vector generalization of the Dirac equation was thought to give a unified description of charged elementary particles in particular of the electron and proton. In their second semi-vector paper Einstein and Mayer were on the lookout for the most general Dirac system possible for the semivector" Van Dongen pp. 103-11. Large octavo pp. 20.

Die Entwicklung unserer Anschauungen über das Wesen und die Konstitution der Strahlung pp.817-825 Planck's Diskussion pp.825-826.
1909. Physik. Zschr. 10. - Leipzig Verlag von S. Hirzel 1909 4° XXII 2 1040 pp. mit Textabbildungen und 26 Tafeln Halbleinenband d.Zt.; St.a.Tit. feines Expl. A LANDMARK W. PAULI FIRST EDITION "of this extensive paper given as lecture before the 81st assembly of the "Gesellschaft Deutscher Naturforscher" in Salzburg on 21st September 1909. He spoke on "The Development of Our View of the Nature and Constitution of Radiation" a topic that embraced both relativity and quanta. Among those who attended Einstein's lecture were some of the world's foremost physicists. In Einstein's austere opinion his address regarded strictly as a work of science was of little importance since as he writes to a co-worker it contained nothing new. Einstein was being overmodest. Besides to many in Einstein's audience and it should be born in mind that it was the year after Minkowski's stirring introduction of the concept of the fourth dimension this Lecture came as a revelation. The occasion was important for Einstein too. He had been working for years in a sort of scientific exile and his curiosity as to what great scientists were like in face-to-face discussion was at least as great as their curiosity about him. His confidence in himself was certainly not harmed when he found that he was able to hold his own easily in their company. Moreover at this congress Einstein first met Planck. In addition he made new'lasting friendships leading to a voluminous scientific correspondence. Amongst those attending the congress were Max von Laue Max Born. Arnold Sommerfeld Hasnohrl. Ladenburg. Max von Laue was to be the first to publish in 1911 the first text-book on relativity theory. All of them are present in this issue with scientific papers of their own."

EINSTEIN, ALBERT
Die formale Grundlage der allgemeinen Relativitätstheorie. The Formal Foundation of the General Theory of Relativity
Berlin: Königlichen Akademie der Wissenschaften 1914. FIRST EDITION OFFPRINT. Original wrappers. Fine. FIRST EDITION COMMERCIAL OFFPRINT ISSUE of Einstein's important 1914 paper on the development of general relativity. "In summer 1914 Einstein felt that the new theory general relativity should be presented in a comprehensive review. He also felt that a mathematical derivation of the field equations that would determine them uniquely was still missing. "Both tasks are addressed in a long paper presented in October 1914 to the Prussian Academy for publication in its Sitzungsberichte. It is entitled 'The formal foundation of the general theory of relativity'; here for the first time Einstein gave the new theory of relativity the epithet 'general' in lieu of the more cautious 'generalized' that he had used for the Entwurf" Landmark Writings in Western Mathematics 1640-1940. "According to John Norton 'How Einstein Found His Field Equations' this major review article was intended to convey the full content of the 1913 'Entwurf' theory: 'The principal novelty lies in the mathematical formulation of the theory. Drawing on earlier work with Marcel Grossman Einstein formulated his gravitational field equations using a variation principle. Using this richer mathematical structure Einstein offered a proof purporting to demonstrate that his theory had the maximum covariance compatible with the hole argument; that is covariance under 'justified' transformation between the 'adapted coordinate systems' he had introduced with Grossman'" Calaprice The Einstein Almanac.
