The entire issue offered. Titlepage to vol. 27. Pp. 193-352 a. 1 engraved plate. Ångströms paper: pp. 290-302. 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 the papers in which Vauquelin describes and announces his discovery of Beryllium."The discovery of beryllium resulted from the Abbé Haüy's observation of the close similarity and probable identity of beryl and the emerald. At his suggestion Vauquelin made some very careful chemical analyses of these two minerals and found in 1798 that they are indeed identical and that they contain a new earth which he named glucina but which is now known as beryllia. The metal was isolated thirty years later by Wöhler and Bussy independently.At the suggestion of the editors of the "Annales de Chemie." he called the new earth 'glucina' meaning sweet."

First printing of the papers in which Vauquelin describes and announces his discovery of Chromium. The first paper was simultaneously printed in Mem.de l'Institut. Because of its many coloured compounds Fourcroy and Haüy suggested the name 'chromium' for the new metal. Greek chroma-colour.In 1797 Vauquelin began his own studies of Siberian red lead. He was convinced that the mineral contained a new element. None of the elements then known could account for his results. He reported "a new metal possessing properties entirely unlike those of any other metal." A year later Vauquelin was able to isolate a small sample of the metal itself. He heated charcoal nearly pure carbon with a compound of chromium chromium trioxide Cr 2 O 3 . When the reaction was complete he found tiny metallic needles of chromium metal.

"In an attempt to find a use for the waste liquers he performed a number of experiments and notized that when certain reagents were added the mother liquer bacame brown. His investigation of this phenomenon.ked to the remarkable discovery.Weeks p. 264. "The discovery of a new chemical element by a young and obscure provincial pharmacist caused a sensation in Paris.
