First appearance of a pioneer-paper in the history of early photography in which Herschel announced some of his importent discoveries of the photographic printing processes the process of photographic contact-printing in Prussian blue brought to light just three years after Louis Daguerre and Henry Talbot had announced their independent inventions of photography in silver using metal and paper substrates respectively. and the photographic properties of red ferro sesquicyanuret of potassium."This is the first recorded observation of Prussian blue being formed for a photographic purpose by the action of light on potassium ferricyanide so it represents the moment of discovery of the first cyanotype process although this name still lay in the future. The significance of this observation impressed Herschel sufficiently to mention it also in his general diary entry for 23 April 1842."Mike Ware in "John Herschel's Cyanotype.

1801réf. 43599Halle Rengerschen Buchhandlung 1801. Without wrappers as published in "Annalen der Physik. Herausgegeben von Ludwig Wilhelm Gilbert" Bd. 7 Zweites Stück. The entire issue offered =Heft 2. Pp. 137-264 a. 2 folded engraved plates. Herschels papers: pp. 137-156. The plate depicts Herschel's experimental arrangements. First appearance in German of Herschel's epochal announcement of his discovery of infrared light in 1800. This was the first time that a form of light beyond visible light had been detected. The paper offered is the German translation of the main parts of Herschel's paper "An Investigation of the Powers of Prismatic Colours to Heat and Illuminate Objects"."In 1800 he tested various portions of the sun's spectrum by thermometer to see if he could find interesting differences in the amount of heat the different colors delivered. He did but in a rather unexpected way for he found that the temperature rise was highest in no color at all at a spot beyond the red end of the spectrum. He concluded that the sunlight contained invisible light beyond the red. This is now called infrared radiation. The following year Ritter was to extend the visible spectrum in the other direction."Asimov.Parkinson "Breakthroughs" 1800 P. unknown
