1779In 8, pp. 242-246 con 1 tav. f.t. inc. all'acq. Br. rifatta con carta d'epoca. Stralcio da 'Opuscoli scelti sulle scienze e sulle arti tratti dagli Atti delle Accademie e dalle Collezioni Filosofiche, e Letterarie', vol. II, primo periodico scientifico milanese edito dal 1778 al 1803 che, sotto la cura di Carlo Amoretti e Francesco Soave, raccoglieva saggi e memorie dei principali scienziati dell'epoca. Estratto di una memoria di Johan Carl Wilcke, fisico svedese (Wismar 1732 - Stoccolma 1796) in cui e' descritta la macchina di Papin, secondo pero' una semplificazione apportata proprio da Wilcke. Viene quindi descritto l'uso di questa macchina in cucina, antenata della pentola a pressione: "il vantaggio di questa pentola riguardo alle comuni si e' che nel far cuocere la carne si risparmiano per lo meno tre quarti si' di tempo che di carbone...".
br. "Questioni quantistiche" è il volume, curato e diretto da Ken Wilber, che raccoglie gli scritti mistici dei più importanti fisici degli ultimi due secoli. Da Einstein a Schrödinger, passando per De Broglie, Heisenberg, Eddington e altri, gli indiscussi portavoce della fisica contemporanea riflettono con onestà e senza paura di giudizio sulla scienza, la religione e il loro legame imprescindibile; parlano e si interrogano a proposito di Dio, di misticismo e di spirito e di come le due grandi branche del sentire terreno ed extra-terreno vivano quello che lo stesso Wilber definisce un "legame fraterno". Questa brillante selezione di scritti traccia un percorso di profonda ricerca intellettuale e spirituale, accompagnando a comprendere come il rapporto tra scienza e religione sia molto più saldo di quanto ci sia stato insegnato a credere. Il linguaggio intimo e accessibile a chiunque usato in questo frangente dai grandi fisici che cambiarono la visione del mondo non solo regala una maggiore conoscenza della loro umanità e del loro spessore, ma offre altresì un punto di vista inedito e fecondo sui grandi interrogativi - scientifici e spirituali - dell'umanità.

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.

Wilhelm Carl Werner Otto Fritz Franz Wien 1864 - 1928 Was A German Physicist Who In 1893 Used Theories About Heat And Electromagnetism To Deduce Wien's Displacement Law Which Calculates The Emission Of A Black Body At Any Temperature From The Emission At Any One Reference Temperature. He Also Formulated An Expression For The Black-Body Radiation Which Is Correct In The Photon-Gas Limit. His Arguments Were Based On The Notion Of Adiabatic Invariance And Were Instrumental For The Formulation Of Quantum Mechanics. Wien Received The 1911 Nobel Prize For His Work On Heat Radiation.
