Fine In Fine Dust Jacket Priced $24.50. Laid In Loosely Is A Gift Card Signed By Wigner And Dated In 1965. Per Wikikpedia Eugene Paul Wigner 1902 - 1995 Was A Hungarian-American Theoretical Physicist Who Also Contributed To Mathematical Physics. He Received The Nobel Prize In Physics In 1963 "For His Contributions To The Theory Of The Atomic Nucleus And The Elementary Particles Particularly Through The Discovery And Application Of Fundamental Symmetry Principles". A Graduate Of The Technical Hochschule Berlin Now Technische Universität Berlin Wigner Worked As An Assistant To Karl Weissenberg And Richard Becker At The Kaiser Wilhelm Institute In Berlin And David Hilbert At The University Of Göttingen. Wigner And Hermann Weyl Were Responsible For Introducing Group Theory Into Physics Particularly The Theory Of Symmetry In Physics. Along The Way He Performed Ground-Breaking Work In Pure Mathematics In Which He Authored A Number Of Mathematical Theorems. In Particular Wigner's Theorem Is A Cornerstone In The Mathematical Formulation Of Quantum Mechanics. He Is Also Known For His Research Into The Structure Of The Atomic Nucleus. In 1930 Princeton University Recruited Wigner Along With John Von Neumann And He Moved To The United States Where He Obtained Citizenship In 1937. Wigner Participated In A Meeting With Leo Szilard And Albert Einstein That Resulted In The Einstein-Szilard Letter Which Prompted President Franklin D. Roosevelt To Authorize The Creation Of The Advisory Committee On Uranium With The Purpose Of Investigating The Feasibility Of Nuclear Weapons. Wigner Was Afraid That The German Nuclear Weapon Project Would Develop An Atomic Bomb First. During The Manhattan Project He Led A Team Whose Task Was To Design Nuclear Reactors To Convert Uranium Into Weapons Grade Plutonium. At The Time Reactors Existed Only On Paper And No Reactor Had Yet Gone Critical. Wigner Was Disappointed That Dupont Was Given Responsibility For The Detailed Design Of The Reactors Not Just Their Construction. He Became Director Of Research And Development At The Clinton Laboratory Now The Oak Ridge National Laboratory In Early 1946 But Became Frustrated With Bureaucratic Interference By The Atomic Energy Commission And Returned To Princeton. In The Postwar Period He Served On A Number Of Government Bodies Including The National Bureau Of Standards From 1947 To 1951 The Mathematics Panel Of The National Research Council From 1951 To 1954 The Physics Panel Of The National Science Foundation And The Influential General Advisory Committee Of The Atomic Energy Commission From 1952 To 1957 And Again From 1959 To 1964. In Later Life He Became More Philosophical And Published The Unreasonable Effectiveness Of Mathematics In The Natural Sciences His Best-Known Work Outside Technical Mathematics And Physics.

Bacher's Copy- From His Library But Not Marked As Such. Per Wikipedia Robert Fox Bacher 1905 - 2004 Was An American Nuclear Physicist And One Of The Leaders Of The Manhattan Project. Bacher Obtained His Undergraduate Degree And Doctorate From The University Of Michigan Writing His 1930 Doctoral Thesis Under The Supervision Of Samuel Goudsmit On The Zeeman Effect Of The Hyperfine Structure Of Atomic Levels. After Graduate Work At The California Institute Of Technology Caltech And The Massachusetts Institute Of Technology Mit He Accepted A Job At Columbia University. In 1935 He Accepted An Offer From Hans Bethe To Work With Him At Cornell University In Ithaca New York. It Was There That Bacher Collaborated With Bethe On His Book Nuclear Physics. A: Stationary States Of Nuclei 1936 The First Of Three Books That Would Become Known As The "Bethe Bible". In December 1940 Bacher Joined The Radiation Laboratory At Mit Although He Did Not Immediately Cease His Research At Cornell Into The Neutron Cross Section Of Cadmium. The Radiation Laboratory Was Organized Into Two Sections One For Incoming Radar Signals And One For Outgoing Radar Signals. Bacher Was Appointed To Handle The Incoming Signals Section. Here He Gained Valuable Experience In Administration Coordinating Not Just The Efforts Of His Scientists But Also Those Of General Electric And Rca. In 1942 Bacher Was Approached By Robert Oppenheimer To Join The Manhattan Project At Its New Laboratory In Los Alamos New Mexico. It Was At Bacher's Insistence That Los Alamos Became A Civilian Rather Than A Military Laboratory. At Los Alamos Bacher Headed The Project's P Physics Division And Later Its G Gadget Division. Bacher Worked Closely With Oppenheimer And The Two Men Discussed The Project's Progress On A Daily Basis. After The War Bacher Became Director Of The Laboratory Of Nuclear Studies At Cornell. He Also Served On The U.S. Atomic Energy Commission The Civilian Agency That Replaced The Wartime Manhattan Project And In 1947 He Became One Of Its Inaugural Commissioners. He Left In 1949 To Become Head Division Of Physics Mathematics And Astronomy At Caltech. He Brought Richard Feynman From Cornell To Caltech But Was Unable To Convince Feynman To Work For The Government Also. He Was Appointed A Member Of The President's Science Advisory Committee Psac In 1958. In 1962 He Became Caltech's Vice President And Provost. He Stepped Down From The Post Of Provost In 1970 And Became A Professor Emeritus In 1976. Mcgraw-Hill Book Co hardcover

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. Cambridge University Press hardcover
