‎Einstein Albert Hermann Weyl‎

‎Raum-Zeit-Materie. Vorlesungen uber Allgemeine Relativitatstheorie in Die Naturwissenschaften Heft 25 Berlin: Julius Springer 21 Juni June 1918 p. 373 SINGLE ISSUE IN ORIGINAL WRAPPERS: EINSTEIN'S REVIEW OF WEYL'S SEMINAL RAUM-ZEIT-MATERIE‎

‎FIRST EDITION IN ORIGINAL WRAPPERS OF EINSTEIN'S REVIEW OF WEYL'S SEMINAL WORK RAUM-ZEIT-MATERIE SPACE-TIME-MATTERS -- WEYL'S STUDY OF THE THEORY OF RELATIVITY written after spending a year with Einstein as the latter was working out the details of his theory. Weyl's work is still considered "the standard treatise on the general theory of relativity" Nature. In the very favorable review offered here Einstein writes "every page shows the amazingly steady hand of the master who has penetrated the subject matter from the most diverse angles. Weyl understood how to combine mathematical rigor with graphic intuition" Einstein 373. Weyl's work includes "an exposition and examination of Einstein's general theory of relativity and the concomitant theory of gravitation. A detailed investigation follows devoted to gravitational waves a rigorous solution of the problem of one body laws of conservation and the energy of gravitation" Stanford Dictionary of Philosophy. The Dictionary of Scientific Biography notes that Weyl's work played "an important role in the development of mathematical physics" DSB XIV p. 281. "Whatever the future may bring Professor Weyl's book will remain a classic of physics" British Journal for Philosophy and Science". Hermann Klaus Hugo Weyl 1885-1955 was a German mathematician theoretical physicist and philosopher. "His work had a vast range encompassing analysis algebra number theory topology differential geometry spacetime theory quantum mechanics and the foundations of mathematics" Stanford. In 1913 Weyl took a teaching post at the ETH Zurich where he was a colleague of Einstein's just as the latter was working out the details of the theory of general relativity. In 1914 Einstein left Z�rich and the theoretical physics program at the ETH. The program was much weakened in his absence and Weyl "needed no external prompting to work in and to teach theoretical physics: his interest in the subject in general and above all in the theory of relativity gave him more than sufficient motivation in that regard. Weyl decided to lecture on the general theory of relativity in the summer semester of 1917 and these lectures became the basis of his famous book Raum-Zeit-Materie of 1918" - the one Einstein here reviews ibid. NOTE: We separately offer two other works by Weyl The Mathematical Way of Thinking and his 1923 paper Zur Allegemeinen Relativatstheorie. We also offer many works by Einstein. CONDITION & DETAILS: Berlin: Julius Springer. Complete. 4to. 10.5 x 7.5 inches; 262 x 187mm. 3 plates and in-text illustrations. Name "Fitch" in light pencil. Very minor old crease in front wrap long flattened. Very good condition. Raum-Zeit-Materie. Vorlesungen �ber Allgemeine Rel�tivitatstheorie in Die Naturwissenschaften. Julius Springer unknown‎

‎FIRST EDITION FULL VOLUME OF THE FRANCK-HERTZ EXPERIMENT: THE FIRST ELECTRICAL MEASUREMENT TO CLEARLY SHOW THE QUANTUM NATURE OF ATOMS - PROOF OF THE QUANTIZED MODEL OF THE BOHR ATOM & OF PLANCK'S QUANTUM THEORY. Note that this volume includes both the first and second Franck-Hertz experiment. In the first they demonstrate that atoms can only absorb and be excited by specific amounts of energy; in the second experiment performed the same year they demonstrate that the frequency of the light emitted following the collision of electrons with mercury atoms corresponds precisely with the energy lost by the electrons in the collision. Franck and Hertz received the Nobel Prize for this work specifically "for their discovery of the laws governing the impact of an electron upon an atom" Nobel Prize Committee. Of equal import this volume also contains a paper by Einstein in which he uses the light quantum hypothesis to give new derivations of Planck's radiation law and Nernst's third law of thermodynamics. His "proofs introduced the quantum hypothesis" Calaprice The Einstein Almanac 40. In 1914 James Franck and Gustav Hertz were working together in the Physics Institute of Berlin and were "particularly interested in ionization i.e. in the process in which an electron is removed from an atom" The Harvest of a Century" p. 102-103. The experiment they devised now known commonly as the Franck-Hertz experiment is "a vivid illustration of the quantization of energy" that relied on methodology so simple "that it is now carried out regularly by undergraduates. They accelerated electrons through a low-pressure gas of mercury. When the electrons' energy reach the energy of a stationary state of mercury they gave up a quantum of energy to the mercury resulting in a stepwise shape to the curve of current through the apparatus. This demonstrated that atoms could absorb energy only in discrete amounts" Peacock The Quantum Revolution 40. "Franck and Hertz had not only shown for the first time that electrons lose their kinetic energy to mercury atoms in energy quanta but also that these energy quanta are equal to the energy of the light emitted by the same atoms if interpreted with Einstein's light-quantum hypothesis.This was the first experimental determination of Planck's constant not using blackbody radiation" Brandt 103.

‎FIRST EDITION OFFPRINT IN FINE CONDITION OF EINSTEIN'S TWO-PART 1927 COMMENTARY ON KALUZA'S THEORY INVOLVING FIELD EQUATIONS IN FIVE-DIMENSIONAL SPACE. Weil 156. Boni 170. Theodor Franz Eduard Kaluza "attempted to unify Einstein's theory of gravity with Maxwell's theory of light by mixing them in a fifth dimension" Calaprice Einstein Almanac 135. Kaluza was able to solve "Einstein's equations for general relativity using five dimensions and - once again - Maxwell's equations for electromagnetism emerged" History of Physics: The Wenner Collection. Kaluza worked with Oskar Benjamin Klein who had "independently developed a five-dimensional theory similar to Kaluza's but in more detail and with the calculation that the fourth spatial dimension is so small 10 30 cm that it could not be detected. Klein's idea of a small extra dimension was subsequently picked up by string theory and M-theory" ibid. Together Kaluza and Klein produced the Kaluza-Klein field equations" Calaprice Einstein Almanac 135. Their insights however were "neglected for many years as attention was directed towards quantum mechanics. Their idea that fundamental forces can be explained by additional dimensions did not re-emerge until string theory was developed" Wikipedia.

‎FIRST PUBLISHED EDITION ORIGINAL PRINTED WRAPS OF A LECTURE EINSTEIN GAVE TO THE SOCIET� FRAN�AISE DE PHYSIQUE. Einstein delivered the lecture at the end of March 1913 as an important coda and supplement to his famous 1912 Annalen der Physik publication Thermodynamische Begr�ndung des photochemischen �quivalentgesetzes. That paper presents "a fundamental principle relating to chemical reactions induced by light which states that for every quantum of radiation photon absorbed one molecule of the affected substance reacts. Einstein's formulation founded on thermodynamics marks the first application of quantum theory to photochemistry; it was one of his last significant contributions to quantum theory" Mehra & Rechenberg p. 103.
