Per Wikipedia Sir James Hopwood Jeans Om Frs 1877 - 1946 Was An English Physicist Mathematician And An Astronomer. He Served As A Secretary Of The Royal Society From 1919 To 1929 And Was The President Of The Royal Astronomical Society From 1925 To 1927 And Won Its Gold Medal.Jeans Was Elected Fellow Of Trinity College In October 1901 And Taught At Cambridge But Went To Princeton University In 1904 As A Professor Of Applied Mathematics. He Returned To Cambridge In 1910. From 1923 To 1944 He Was Associated With Caltech's Mount Wilson Observatory. He Made Important Contributions In Many Areas Of Physics Including Quantum Theory The Theory Of Radiation And Stellar Evolution. Jeans Along With Arthur Eddington Is A Founder Of British Cosmology. His Scientific Reputation Is Grounded In The Monographs The Dynamical Theory Of Gases 1904 Theoretical Mechanics 1906 And Mathematical Theory Of Electricity And Magnetism 1908. After Retiring In 1929 He Wrote A Number Of Books For The Lay Public. One Of Jeans's Major Discoveries Named The Jeans Length Is A Critical Radius Of An Interstellar Cloud In Space. It Depends On The Temperature And Density Of The Cloud And The Mass Of The Particles Composing The Cloud. A Cloud That Is Smaller Than Its Jeans Length Will Not Have Sufficient Gravity To Overcome The Repulsive Gas Pressure Forces And Condense To Form A Star Whereas A Cloud That Is Larger Than Its Jeans Length Will Collapse. Jeans Came Up With Another Version Of This Equation Called The Jeans Mass Or The Jeans Instability That Solves For The Critical Mass A Cloud Must Attain Before Being Able To Collapse. Jeans Also Helped To Discover The Rayleigh-Jeans Law Which Relates The Energy Density Of Black-Body Radiation To The Temperature Of The Emission Source. Jeans Is Also Credited With Calculating The Rate Of Atmospheric Escape From A Planet Due To Kinetic Energy Of The Gas Molecules A Process Known As Jeans Escape. The Macmillan Company hardcover

From Wikipedia: Richard Edler Von Mises 1883 -1953 Was An Austrian Scientist And Mathematician. He Described His Work Shortly Before His Death As Being On ". Practical Analysis Integral And Differential Equations Mechanics Hydrodynamics And Aerodynamics Constructive Geometry Probability Calculus Statistics And Philosophy. Although Best Known For His Mathematical Work Mises Also Contributed To The Philosophy Of Science As A Neo-Positivist And Empiricist Following The Line Of Ernst Mach. Historians Of The Vienna Circle Of Logical Empiricism Recognize A "First Phase" From 1907 Through 1914 With Philipp Frank Hans Hahn And Otto Neurath. His Older Brother Ludwig Von Mises Held An Opposite Point Of View With Respect To Positivism And Epistemology. His Brother Developed Praxeology An A Priori View. During His Time In Istanbul Mises Maintained Close Contact With Philipp Frank5 A Logical Positivist And Professor Of Physics In Prague Until 1938. His Literary Interests Included The Austrian Novelist Robert Musil And The Poet Rainer Maria Rilke On Whom He Became A Recognized Expert. Before The War He Had Already Become A Pilot And Lectured On The Design Of Aircraft And In 1913 At Strasbourg He Gave The First University Course On Powered Flight. After The War Mises Held The New Chair Of Hydrodynamics And Aerodynamics At The Dresden Technische Hochschule. In 1919 He Was Appointed Director And Full Professor At The New Institute Of Applied Mathematics . With The Rise Of The National Socialist Party To Power In 1933 Mises Felt His Position Threatened Despite His First World War Military Service. He Moved To Turkey Where He Held The Newly Created Chair Of Pure And Applied Mathematics At The University Of Istanbul. In 1939 He Accepted A Position In The United States Where In 1944 He Was Appointed As Gordon Mckay Professor Of Aerodynamics And Applied Mathematics At Harvard University. His Ideas On Probability However Were Not Well Received Yet Andrey Kolmogorov Whose Rival Axiomatisation Was Better Received Was Less Severe: "The Basis For The Applicability Of The Results Of The Mathematical Theory Of Probability To Real 'Random Phenomena' Must Depend On Some Form Of The Frequency Concept Of Probability The Unavoidable Nature Of Which Has Been Established By Von Mises In A Spirited Manner.

As Moore Writes In His Preface "The Author Of The Papers Collected In This Volume Seemed To Me To Combine Very Exceptional Brilliance With Very Great Soundness Of Judgment In Philosophy. He Was An Extraordinarily Clear Thinker And Had Moreover An Exceptional Power Of Drawing Conclusions From A Complicated Set Of Facts. And With All This He Produced The Impression Of Also Possessing The Soundest Common Sense. Ramsey Was Not Only Exceptionally Capable Of Thinking Clearly Himself; He Also Had A Most Uncommon Power Of Explaining Clearly To Others What He Thought And Why He Thought It".
