First appearance of this milestone paper in chemistry physics and astronomy announcing the discovery of the helium lines in the spectrum of the sun. It was Lockyer in the same year that named it 'helium' for Helios the Greek God of the Sun. Helium was not discovered on the earth before 1895 by William Ramsay and it was Crookes who established its identity with the helium Janssen and Lockyer observed in the spectrum of the sun."He Janssen met immortality by travelling to India in 1868 to study the total eclipse. It was then that he observed the helium line and forwarded the spectral data to ockyer. He also noted the size of the solar prominences. The day after the eclipse he attempted to take their spectra again and succeeded despite the absence of the obscuring moon. he then announced jubilantly that it was the day after the eclipse that was the real eclipse day for him. Lockyer also reported this method of studying prominences without an eclipse.Like Lockyer he lived to see his observation of the helium line vindicated by Ramsay's discovery of that element on earth."Asimov."This the discovery of helium lines in the sun by Lockyer was announced on the same day by the French astronomer Janssen who was in India observing a total eclipse. As a result the French government some ten years later struck a medallion showing the heads of both scientists.By that time the two men had made a much more dramatic discovery at the same time this time in cooperation. Janssen studying the spectrum ofthe sun during the eclipse had noted a fine line he did not recognize. he send a report on this to Lockyer an acknowledges expert on solar spectra. Lockyer compared the reported position of the line with lines of known elements concluding that it must belong to a yeat unknown element possibly not even existing on the earth. He named the element from the Greek word for the sun."Asimov.Parkinson "Breakthroughs" 1868 A. - The volume contains other notable papers by Dumas Berthelot et al. hardcover

Best.-Nr. 827712 black & white illus. 24 pp. Very tall 8vo 169 x 356 mm. orig. printed wrappers some sunning staple-bound. Zurich: Bruno Bischofberger 1969. LeWitt’s second “autonomous” artist’s book – i.e. not connected to an exhibition or part of another publication. This is one of 1000 copies printed all of which were numbered ours is no. 924 there were also 500 copies signed by LeWitt. 49 three-part variations… was published by the Zurich gallerist Bruno Bischofberger with whom LeWitt had his first solo presentation in February-March 1968. Bischofberger along with Konrad Fischer and Heiner Friedrich was one of the earliest European gallerists to engage and collaborate with LeWitt and other Conceptual artists. “Following Serial Project #1 ‘The Xerox Book’ and Set II A I-24 Sol LeWitt’s fourth book is 49 Three-Part Variations… which was published in 1969 and is large and oblong in shape its proportions being two squares wide by one square high. This doubling of the square format is approximately repeated with other books such as Schematic Drawings for Muybridge II 1964 of 1970 Open Geometric Structures… of 1979 and All Four Part Combinations of Six Geometric Figures of 1980. In each case the horizontal format is dictated by the content. 49 Three-Part Variations… is the second of LeWitt’s autonomous artist's books and again is not an exhibition catalogue but more a catalogue of forms.”–Clive Phillpot “Sol LeWitt’s Books: Complete & Incomplete” in Booktrek: Selected Essays on Artists’ Books 1972-2010 2013 p. 261.
