‎Memoir on Double Refraction. (From the Mémoires de l'Academie Royale des Sciences d l'Institut de France, tome vii. 1827).‎

‎London, Taylor and Francis, 1852. 8vo. Without wrappers. In: ""Scientific Memoirs, selected from Transactions of Foreign Academies of Science... Edited by Richard Taylor."", Vol. V, Part XVIII. With titlepage to Vol. V. Pp. (151-) 352 (entire part offered). Fresnel's paper: pp. 238-333. Clean and fine. Titlepage with a small faint stamp.‎

‎First appearance in English of Fresnel's famous memoir - the memoir of 1827, his so-called second memoir - in which some of his groundbreaking discoveries concerning light is stated. He applies the concept of transverse waves to double refraction and representing the final construction, in the form of an equation of the fourth degree.In the paper Fresnel also explained the fact,that in some cases of quartz the rotation of polarization is from left to right and in other cases from right to left.. He proposed the term 'helical' to denote the property of rotating the plane of polarization, exhibited by such bodies as quartz. The term 'natural rotatory polarisation' is however, generally used.This memoir contains the first printing of three unpublished memoirs from 1821 and 1822 (Mémoire sur la double refraction.Extrait Read 26. Nov., 1821 - Supplement, presented 22 January 1822 - Second Supplement, presented April 1, 1822. - Explication de la réfraction dans le système des Ondes from ""Bulletin Soc. Philom."", 1821.

‎First appearance of the first treatment of Wave Mechanics in English.The paper reviews Schrödinger's own wave-mechanics and De Broglie's ""phase waves"", and covers all the results Schrödinger had hitherto obtained in his main communications of 1926 (the 3 papers in German). An English translation of Schrödinger's main papers was not published until 1928.""The paper gives an account of the author's work on a new form of quantum theory. 1. The Hamiltonian analogy between mechanics and optics. 2. The analogy is to be extended to include real ""physical"" or ""undulatory"" mechanics instead of mere geometrical mechanics. 3. The significance of wave-length" macro-mechanical and micro-mechanical problems. 4. The wave-equation and its application to the hydrogen atom. 5. The intrinsic reason for the appearance of discrete characteristic frequencies. 6. Other problems intensity of emitted light. 7. The wave-equation derived from a Hamiltonian variation-principle" generalization to an arbitrary conservative system. 8. The wave-function physically means and determines a continuous distribution of electricity in space, the fluctuations of which determine the radiation by the laws of ordinary electrodynamics. 9. Non-conservative systems. Theory of dispersion and scattering and of the ""transitions"" between the ""stationary states."" 10. The question of relativity and the action of a magnetic field. Incompleteness of that part of the theory."" (From the Abstract in front of the paper).‎
