Entire volume: VIII 776 pp. 6 folded plates. First edition of Wilhelm Wien's highly influential paper on the phenomenon of radiation also known as Wien's displacement law. Wien followed Ludwig Boltzmann's approach when incorporating electrodynamics and thermodynamics in investigating radiation and its characteristics. "He argued that if a system reaches the same temperature by the increase of temperature or by the adiabatic compression of the volume containing heat radiation it should yield the same energy distribution. Considering also the Doppler effect of the radiation Wien arrived at an expression for energy distribution that states that the product of temperature and the wave length is a constant". Mathew Chandrankunnel Philosophy of physics 2000 4 p.Wien's empirical observations functioned as a starting point for Max Planck who wanted prove the theoretical foundation for Wien's wishing thus to justify the entropy law. Today Wien's approximation is also known as Wien-Planck law.This phenomenon was coined "Wien's displacement law" because the energy density curve is displaced correspondingly to the temperature; it implies that the hotter an object is the shorter the wavelength at which it will release most of its radiation. Wien's description of radiation awarded him the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1911. Wien's constant is today used in a wide range of different aspects of physics e.g. cosmic microwave background and the determination of how much energy is emitted from a light bulb.

La seconda (“Della diversa velocità del suono”) riprende una lezione tenuta all’Istituto di Scienze in Bologna sull’acustica e la misurazione della velocità del suono, rifacendosi a precedenti esperimenti compiuti in Inghilterra da Halley, Flamsted ed altri.
