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

Definitive For The Advanced Student And The Expert. Per Wikipedia Chien-Shiung Wu Chinese: ; Pinyin: Wú Jiànxióng; Wade-Giles: Wu2 Chien4-Hsiung2; 1912 - 1997 Was A Chinese-American Particle And Experimental Physicist Who Made Significant Contributions In The Fields Of Nuclear And Particle Physics. Wu Worked On The Manhattan Project Where She Helped Develop The Process For Separating Uranium Into Uranium-235 And Uranium-238 Isotopes By Gaseous Diffusion. She Is Best Known For Conducting The Wu Experiment Which Proved That Parity Is Not Conserved. This Discovery Resulted In Her Colleagues Tsung-Dao Lee And Chen-Ning Yang Winning The 1957 Nobel Prize In Physics While Wu Herself Was Awarded The Inaugural Wolf Prize In Physics In 1978. Her Expertise In Experimental Physics Evoked Comparisons To Marie Curie. Her Nicknames Include The "First Lady Of Physics" The "Chinese Madame Curie" And The "Queen Of Nuclear Research". After Work On The Manhattan Project During Wwii Wu Accepted An Offer Of A Position As An Associate Research Professor At Columbia. She Would Remain At Columbia For The Rest Of Her Career And Was First Named Associate Professor In 1952 Which Made Her The First Woman To Become A Tenured Physics Professor In University History. In November 1949 Wu Experimented With The Conclusions Of Einstein's Epr Thought Experiment Which Called Quantum Entanglement "Spooky Action At A Distance". Wu Was The First To Establish The Phenomenon And Validity Of Entanglement Using Photons Through Observing Angular Correlation As Her Result Confirmed Maurice Pryce And John Clive Ward's Calculations On The Correlation Of The Quantum Polarizations Of Two Photons Propagating In Opposite Directions. Specifically The Experiment Carried Out By Wu Was The First Important Confirmation Of Quantum Results Relevant To A Pair Of Entangled Photons As Applicable To The Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen Epr Paradox. Her 1950 Letter To Physical Review Famously Identified Confirmation Of Wheeler's Ideas On Entanglement. Tsung-Dao Lee And Another Chinese Theoretical Physicist Chen Ning Yang Grew To Question A Hypothetical Law Of Elementary Particle Physics The "Law Of Conservation Of Parity". Lee And Yang Worked Out A Pencil-And-Paper Design Of An Experiment For Testing Conservation Of Parity In The Laboratory. Because Of Her Expertise In Choosing And Then Working Out The Hardware Manufacture Set-Up And Laboratory Procedures Wu Then Informed Lee That She Could Carry Out The Experiment. Wu Chose To Do This By Taking A Sample Of Radioactive Cobalt-60 And Cooling It To Cryogenic Temperatures With Liquid Gases. Cobalt-60 Is An Isotope That Decays By Beta Particle Emission And Wu Was Also An Expert On Beta Decay. The Discovery Of Parity Violation Was A Major Contribution To Particle Physics And The Development Of The Standard Model. The Discovery Actually Set The Stage For The Development Of The Model As The Model Relied On The Idea Of Symmetry Of Particles And Forces And How Particles Can Sometimes Break That Symmetry.The Wide Coverage Of Her Discovery Prompted The Discoverer Of Fission Otto Frisch To Mention That Those At Princeton Would Often Say That Her Experiment Was The Most Impactful Since The Michelson-Morley Experiment That Inspired Einstein's Theory Of Relativity. In December 1962 Wu Experimentally Demonstrated A Universal Form And More Accurate Version Of Fermi's Old Beta Decay Model Confirming The Conserved Vector Current Cvc Hypothesis Of Richard Feynman And Murray Gell-Mann On The Road To The Standard Model.

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

He Held Visiting Professorships At The University Of Illinois 1963 The University Of Pennsylvania 1968 Harvard University 1970 Ucla 1973 And Wayne State University 1977. Sklar Specialized In The Philosophy Of Physics Approaching A Wide Range Of Issues From A Position Best Described As Highly Skeptical Of Many Of The Metaphysical Conclusions Commonly Drawn In The Physical Sciences. He Advocated The 'Mimo' Metaphysics In Metaphysics Out Principle Claiming That Much Of The Metaphysical Content Of Interpreted Theories In The Special Sciences Arises From Metaphysical Assumptions Made During Their Formulation. Although Physics Has Moved Much Since 1985 His Books Are Still Quite Worthwhile Reading. University of California Press hardcover
