First appearance in German of Ångström's famous paper in which he announced the discovery of hydrogen in the atmosphere of the sun and in which he also confirmed the probable existence of of other elements there. The paper appeared in "Oefversigt af K. Vet. Acad. Förhandl." in 1861. The German paper here is expanded. At the same time it was translated into English and publishe as "On the Fraunhofer Lines Visible in the Solar Spectrum".Ångström was one of the early formulators of the science of modern spectroscopy; he wrote extensively on terrestrial magnetism the conduction of heat and especially spectroscopy. He published a monumental map of the normal solar spectrum that expressed the length of light waves in units of one ten-millionth of a millimeter a unit of length now known as the angstrom. He discovered that hydrogen is present in the sun's atmosphere and he was the first to examine the spectrum of the aurora borealis. unknown

First printing of this main paper in the working out of the Kinetic Theory of Gases in which Clausius announced his determination of the equation governing the mean free path lenght of a molecule moving freely in gases. By this he inscribed his name as one of the founders of the Kinetic Theory of Gases."Clausius was one of the founders of the kinetic theory of gases and of the science of thermodynamics. He and Lord Kelvin at about the same time and independently announced the Second Law of thermodynamics. Clausius particularly developed the theory of thermodynamics by applying it to the study of gases and vapors."Magie in "A Source Book in Physics" p. 228."In order to analyze the process of molecular collisions Clausius adopted a simplified model for his admittedly complicated molecule. He assumed that whatever the actual patterns on intermolecular forces one could suppose that there is some advantage distance between the centers of molecules which would represent a general boundary between attractive and repulsive forces. If two molecules were to approach each other within that boundary repulsion would generally occur. Thus the very complex problem of intermolecular action was reduced to a "billiard ball" model."

Entire issue offered. Clausius' paper: pp. 73-112. With titlepage to volume 116. First appearance of the paper in which Clausius makes importent contributions to the generalization and understanding of the Second Law of Thermodynamics by introducing the concept of disgregation and proving the equivalence of the transformation of heat."Clausius began that search for understanding in 1862 by introducing the concept of disgregation a concept that he said was based on an idea he had long held: that the force of heat for performing mechanical work both internal and external together was proportional to the absolute temperature.13 Clausius had never stated this idea explicitly before although he had argued in 1853 by adopting an analogy between a reversible steam engine and a thermocouple that the potential difference at a thermocouple junction should be proportional to the absolute temperature. In any event he now wished to assert that the work which can be done by heat in any change of the arrangement of a body is proportional to the absolute temperature multiplied by a function of molecular arrangement the disgregation Z. Given this assumption and his postulate that the heat in a body H was only a function of temperature he was able 1 to prove his theorem of the equivalence of transformations and 2 to separate the equivalence function entropy into a temperature-dependent term and a configurational-dependent term."DSB.The issue contains other notable papers Plücker "Ueber recurrente Ströme und ihre Anwendung zur Darstellung von Gasspectra" pp. 27-54 Tyndall "Ueber Strahlung und Absorption der Wärme durch gasförmige Materie" pp. 1-27. unknown

In the obituary J.W. Gibbs remarked that Clausiu's first memoir "marks an epoch in the history of physics."" Chowdhury and Stauffer in "Principles of Equilibrium Statistical Mechanics".In "The Nature of the Physical World" Eddington writes: "The Law that entropy increases - the Second Law of Thermodynamics - holds I think the supreme position among the laws of Nature. If someone points out to you that your pet theory of the Universe is in disagreement with Maxwell's equations - then so much the worse for Maxwell's equations. If it is found to be contradicted by observation - well these experimentalists do bungle things sometimes. But if your theory is found to be against the Second Law of Thermodynamics I can give You no hope; there is nothing for it but to collapse in deepest humiliation.".Parkinson "Breakthroughs" 1850 P. hardcover

First appearance of 4 famous and importent papers 2 of them in their final form in which Hertz established by experiments the similarities between electric waves and light waves."Hertz followed up his determination of the finite velocity of electric waves by performing a series of more qualitative experiments in 1888 on the analogy between electric and light waves. Passing electric waves through huge prisms of hard pitch he showed that they refract exactly as light waves do. He polarized electric waves by directing them through a grating of parallel wires and he diffracted them by interrupting them with a screen with a hole in it. He reflected them from the walls of the room obtaining interference between the original and the reflected waves. He focused them with huge concave mirrors casting electric shadows with conducting obstacles. The experiments with mirrors especially attracted attention as they were the most direct disproof of action at a distance in electrodynamics. They and the experiments on the finite velocity of propagation brought about a rapid conversion of European physicists from the viewpoint of instantaneous action at a distance in electrodynamics to Maxwell’s view that electromagnetic processes take place in dielectrics and that an electromagnetic ether subsumes the functions of the older luminiferous ether."

First edition of this importent paper in which Hertz went beyond Maxwell and hereby took the first step on the way to RELATIVITY THEORY.In his second theoretical paper the paper offered Hertz applied Maxwell’s equations to moving deformable bodies. Maxwell had not treated this problem systematically in the Treatise although unknown to Hertz he had done so elsewhere. Hertz recognized that to develop an electrodynamics of moving bodies it was first necessary to specify whether or not the ether moves with bodies. For his part he would assume that the ether is mechanically dragged by moving bodies. The first ground for this assumption was that within the restricted domain of electromagnetic phenomena there was nothing incompatible with the idea of a dragged ether. The second ground was that its denial entailed the complication that two sets of electric and magnetic vectors had to be assigned to each point of space one for the ether and one for the independently moving body. He recognized at the same time that a dragged ether was an unsure foundation for electrodynamics."DSB.Schilpp "Einstein" pp. 31 ff. - Whittaker "A History of the Theories of Aether and Electricity" pp. 328 ff. unknown

First printing of all 4 fundamental papers on electrochemistry where Hittorf states his concepts of ionic migration and transport numbers concepts that should be the foundation stones of the later evolved theory of ionization culminating in Svante Arrhenius's famous discovery of electrolytic dissociation."After Faraday's experimental investigations in 1834 it was accepted that the electricity passing through an electrolytic cell was carried by the movement of charged ions produced from the decomposition of the compounds making up the solution. Daniell had extended these ideas in 1839 and showed that salts were compounds not of acid anhydrides and metallic oxides as had been thought but of metallic cations and elemental or compound acid anions. Believing that the conductivity of solutions was due to these ions he began a study of their transference. In 1853 Hittorf took up the problem. He extended the ideas of Daneill by reasoning inthe following manner: Cations and anions exist in solutions and migrate under the influence of current through the solution. The migration of the cation toward the cathode and away from the anode and the deposition of the anode on the positive electrode together result in a decrease of teh salt in the neighborhood of the anode. A similar analysis shows that there is also a decrease in the concemtration of the salt in the neighborhood of the cathode. If the motion of the two dissimilar ions were the same the decrease in the concentration of the salt would be the same at the two electrodes.Hwe concluded that the speeds of migration.were different and he characterized this fact by defining "transport numbers" which specified the portion of the transport of electricity carried by each ion.

Bd. 89 No.6 a. 7. Pp. 211-233 a. pp. 353-377."In this work the papers offered Helmholtz for the first time enters the field of mathematical physics and physiology with the full equipment of the higher mathematical analysis of which he was the only master in its application to the latter science.This very interesting and fundamental work on the distribution of electrical currents in material conductors is purely mathematical in character owing to Helmholtz's method of proving the theorems which are intelligible enough from the physical point of view It is essentially connected with the treatise on the CONSERVATION OF ENERGY since helmholtz merely substitutes for the expression 'free tension' there employed the identical concept of Gauss's potentia or Green's potential function."Koenigsberger in "Hermann von helmholtz" p. 99-103. unknown
