Paul Ehrenfest. Volume I: The Making Of A Theoretical Physicist First Printing With Number Line "1" With Photograph

1970réf. 059800North-Holland Pub Co 1970. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Fine/Very Good. Xvi 220 Pp. Red Cloth Gilt. First Printing With Number Line Ending In "1" North-Holland Publisher Not The Springer Reprint. Fine Bookplate Of Dutch-American Physicist Jan Korrringa Who Was A Student Of Ehrenfest. Dust Jacket With Wear Short Tear At Top Of Front Panel Minor Losses At Edges. With A Photogra;H Of A Portrait Of Ehrenfest Signed By Ehrenfest In The Original But Not On This Copy. Per Wikipedia Paul Ehrenfest 1880 - 1933 Was An Austrian Theoretical Physicist Who Made Major Contributions To Statistical Mechanics And Its Relation To Quantum Mechanics. He Majored In Chemistry At The Vienna Institute Of Technology But Took Courses At The University Of Vienna In Particular From Ludwig Boltzmann On His Kinetic Theory Of Thermodynamics. These Lectures Had A Profound Influence. In 1903 He Met Dutch Physicist Hendrik Lorentz During A Short Visit To Leiden Netherlands. He Wrote His Dissertation On Die Bewegung Starrer Körper In Flüssigkeiten Und Die Mechanik Von Hertz The Motion Of Rigid Bodies In Fluids And The Mechanics Of Hertz And Obtained His Ph.D. On 23 June 1904 In Vienna Where He Stayed From 1904 To 1905. Because He Was Unwilling To Declare Belief In Any Religious Denomination He Could Not Apply For A Professorship And Therefore Had No Prospect Of Securing A Permanent Position.6 In 1912 Ehrenfest Toured German-Speaking Universities In The Hope Of A Position. He Visited Berlin Where He Saw Max Planck; Leipzig Where He Met His Old Friend German Mathematician Gustav Herglotz; Munich Where He Met Theoretical Physicist Arnold Sommerfeld; Zürich; And Vienna. In Prague He Met Albert Einstein For The First Time And They Remained Close Friends Thereafter. Einstein Recommended That Ehrenfest Succeed Him In His Position In Prague But The Plan Failed Since Ehrenfest Declared Himself An Atheist.78 Sommerfeld Offered Him A Position In Munich But Ehrenfest Received A Better Offer; At The Same Time There Was An Unexpected Turn Of Events: H. A. Lorentz Resigned His Position At The University Of Leiden And On His Advice Ehrenfest Was Appointed As His Successor. In October 1912 Ehrenfest Arrived In Leiden. To Stimulate Interaction And Exchange Among Physics Students Ehrenfest Organized A Discussion Group And A Study Association Called De Leidsche Flesch "The Leyden Jar". He Maintained Close Contact With Prominent Physicists In The Country And Abroad And Invited Them To Visit Leiden And Give Presentations In His Lecture Series. Among His Students Were Johannes Burgers Hendrik Kramers Dirk Coster George Uhlenbeck And Samuel Goudsmit Who Became Famous For Jointly Proposing The Concept Of Electron Spin Jan Tinbergen Arend Rutgers Hendrik Casimir Gerhard Dieke Dirk Struik And Gerard Kuiper. His Assistants Included Yuri Krutkov Viktor Trkal Adriaan Fokker Paul Epstein And Gregory Breit. Other Young Foreign Scientists Who Spent Extended Periods In His Laboratory Included Gunnar Nordström Enrico Fermi Igor Tamm Oskar Klein J. Robert Oppenheimer Walter Elsasser Ralph Kronig Werner Heisenberg Paul Dirac And David Dennison.Ehrenfest's Most Important Contribution From 1912 To 1933 Is The Theory Of Adiabatic Invariants A Concept Derived From Classical Mechanics That Can Serve To Refine Certain Methods Of Niels Bohr's Model Of The Atom And Also Creates An Association Between Atomic Mechanics And Statistical Mechanics. He Made Major Contributions To Quantum Physics Including The Theory Of Phase Transitions And The Ehrenfest Theorem Which States That Expectation Values Of A Quantum System Conform To Classical Mechanics. His Name Is Also Given To The Ehrenfest Paradox An Apparent Paradox Of Relativity To The Ehrenfest Model And To Ehrenfest Time The Time Characterizing The Difference Of Quantum Dynamics For Observables From Classical Dynamics. Ehrenfest Was Also Interested In Developing Mathematical Theories For Economics. His Student Jan Tinbergen Received A Nobel Prize In Economics. North-Holland Pub Co hardcover

Fine In Fine Dust Jacket. Text Evolved From Lectures To An Honors Course For Undergraduates. Fine In Fine Dust Jacket; Inscribed By Sachs And Dated March 18 1999. Mendel Sachs 1927 -2012 Was An American Theoretical Physicist. His Scientific Work Includes The Proposal Of A Unified Field Theory That Brings Together The Weak Force Strong Force Electromagnetism And Gravity. Sachs Earned His Bachelors At The University Of California Los Angeles He Then Moved To Columbia University New York For Postgraduate Study. While At Columbia Sachs Was Taught By Willis Lamb And Hideki Yukawa.5 Yukawa Had Agreed To Be Sach's Thesis Advisor But Sachs Decided To Complete His Doctorate Back At Ucla. Following The Award Of His Phd In 1954 Sachs First Post-Doctoral Position Was At The New University Of California Radiation Laboratory At Both Berkeley And Livermore Which Was Run By Edward Teller And Ernest Lawrence And Was Also Home To Bryce Dewitt Who Sachs Would Later Co-Author Articles With In Physics Today. In 1956 Sachs Became A Senior Scientist At Lockheed Missiles And Space Laboratory While At Lockheed Sachs Began Developing With Solomon Schwebel A Field Theory Of Quantum Electrodynamics That Included Broken Symmetries That Did Not Require Recourse To Renormalization Or Perturbation Techniques - The "Schwebel-Sachs" Model. In 1961 He Became A Research Professor At Mcgill University; This Was Followed By A Post As Associate Professor Of Physics At Boston University 1962-1966. In 1964 While At Boston University Sachs Received An Invitation From Paul Dirac To Visit Cambridge University. Sachs Stayed In England For Three Months Where His Wife Yetty Had Family. Sachs Worked With Paul Dirac At The Department Of Applied Mathematics And Theoretical Physics Cambridge University. While Working With Dirac Sachs Also Had The Opportunity To Discuss Ideas With John G. Taylor John Polkinghorne And Graduate Students At Damtp. In 1965 Sachs Had Had A Breakthrough While At The Aspen Physics Institute Colorado. Sachs Was Able To Derive A Result For A Unified Field Theory If Quantum Mechanics Was Considered To Be A Linear Approximation For A Field Theory Of Inertia Expressed In General Relativity. Sachs Argued That The Work Of Albert Einstein And Erwin Schrödinger In General Relativity Did Not Yet Take Account Of The Inertia Of Matter Which Required Consideration Of The Mach Principle. In The Summer Of 1966 Abdus Salam Invited Sachs To Spend A Few Months At The International Centre For Theoretical Physics In Trieste Italy. During This Time Sachs Published The Details Of His Formal Structure Of Quantum Mechanics From A Generally Covariant Field Theory Of Inertia In The Italian Journal Il Nuovo Cimento. In The Autumn Of 1966 He Was Appointed Professor Of Physics At State University Of New York At Buffalo. World Scientific Publishing Co Inc hardcover
