1946réf. 858Lancaster: American Physical Society 1946. 1st Edition. FIRST EDITION IN ORIGINAL WRAPS OF SIGNIFICANT CORRECTIONS & ADDITIONS BY EINSTEIN & STRAUS TO AN IMPORTANT PAPER; AS WELL A PAPER BY CHANDRASEKHAR ON THE ORIGIN OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM. In 1945 Albert Einstein and Ernst G. Straus introduced their Swiss cheese model of the universe in a paper entitled "The Influence of the Expansion of Space on the Gravitation Fields Surrounding the Individual Stars". Weil 216. The following year they published "Corrections and Additional Remarks to Our Paper" the 1945 paper the paper offered here. In early 1945 Einstein returned to long held cosmological questions as he sought to try to understand whether the expansion of the universe caused the solar system to expand as well - or more specifically the influence of the expansion of space on the gravitational field in the neighborhood of a star. Working with Straus the two began studying the effect of inhomogeneities in an expanding model. "By the spring of 1945 Einstein and Straus had found a new type of possible universe using Einstein's equations. It described a universe which looked largely like one of the simple expanding universes of Friedmann and Lemaître containing material like galaxies which exerted no pressure. But it has spherical regions removed from it like bubbles in a Swiss cheese. Each empty hole then had a mass placed at its centre. The mass was equal in magnitude to what had been excavated to create the hole. This was a step towards a more realistic universe in which the matter was not smoothly spread with the same density everywhere but gathered up into lumps like galaxies which were spread about in empty space. Barrow The Book of Universes 106-107. ALSO INCLUDED: S. Chandrasekhar's "On a New Theory of Weizsäcker on the Origin of the Solar System". In 1945 C. F. v. Weizsäcker proposed a new theory of the origin of the solar system which appeared to merit consideration. Weizsäcker argued "that there would be turbulence in the solar nebula which would give rise to the formation of eddies having angular motion opposite to that of the rotation of the nebula" Abhyankar The Origin BASI 26 339. Weizsäcker's "principal idea was to regard the formation of a planetary system around a star as a possible last stage in the formation of the star itself" Chandrasekhar 1946 94. He believed that "the protoplanets were supposed to have formed at the sites of the ball bearing eddies and the merger of the protoplanets in the same orbit produced the known planets" Abhyankar 343. In the paper offered here the Indian American astrophysicist S. Chandrasekhar challenged Weizsäcker's theory and showed "that there will be a wide spectrum of turbulence with smaller eddies within the larger ones and there would be no regular pattern as suggested by Weizsäcker. Further the life time of the eddies will be too short for the formation of the planets" ibid. In other words Chandrasekhar's work "indicated that the regular pattern of vortices originally postulated by Weizsäcker could not occur but instead must be replaced by a range of eddy sizes" Brush A History of Modern Planetary Physics 14. Chandrasekhar's work led to the abandonment of Weizsäcker's theories. INCLUDED: Nobel Prize winner Percy Williams Bridgman's "Recent Work in the Field of High Pressures" pp. 1-94 an important review of work done in the field of high pressure physics between Bridgman's seminal 1930 work and 1946 the year he won the prize and R.

1906réf. 39057Leipzig Johann Ambrosius Barth 1906. Bound in a fine recent hmorocco. Gilt lettering on spine. "Annalen der Physik" Bd. 20 Heft 8 pp. 433-640. The Einstein paper pp. 627-633. First edition of this paper in the periodical form in which Einstein shows that the conservation of mass is a special application of his energy principle E= Mc2 - "Einstein considers a weightless horizontal cylinder filled with electromagnetic radiation and closed to the external world. A certain amount of radiating energy E moves from the left end of the cylinder to the right end transferring a certain amount of momentum due to radiation pressure to the left end which translates the cylinder to the left. When the radiation arrives at the right end the motion stops. We now imagine that a practically massless body absorbs this radiation moves back to the left and deposits it to its original state. Then the body moves back to right end into its original position. Now a complete cycle has taken place the system is back in its original state but the center of mass has moved by a certain amount to the left. This process can be repeated any number of times with the result that a body all by itself without any external forces can change its centre of mass by an arbitrary amount in contradiction to all physical evidence. This conclusion is avoided if we assume that the energy E is associated with the mass M=E/c2 in which case the centre of mass remains permanently at rest in agreement with our ecpectations."

1915réf. 14657Leipzig and Berlin: B.G. Teubner 1915. With frontispiece portrait of Minkowski and text figures. Boards spine and corners frayed and cracking. Sammelband containing the original papers on the special and general theories of relativity with a foreword by O. Blumenthal. It is in Minkowski's famous paper Raum und Zeit Space and time that he proposes the concept of time as the fourth dimension and initiates a mathematical study that became the basis of the later development of the theory. Included here is the re-issue of that work by Einstein and Lorentz with notes by A. Sommerfeld published after Minkowski's untimely death along with other papers by the two scientists whose works led to the abandonment of space and time as separate entities.

This copy has belonged to Abraham Pais 1918-2000 - the famous Einstein scholar theoretical physicist and Einsteins collegue at Princeton - and having his name on top of the frontwrapper "A Pais" First edition of a scarce paper in the offprint version. The paper "represents the basis of the one written by the same author in collaboration with Wolfgang Pauli in 1943 in which by following analogous lines the proof of the non-existence of regular particle-type solutions was generalized to the case of cilyndrical geometries in Kaluza-Klein theory Einstein & Pauli 1943. Besides other generalizations were subsequently presented. The non-existence of such solutions in classical unified field theory was undoubtedly an important criterion leading Einstein's investigations."Galvagno and Giribet."In his search for a unified field theory that could undercut quantum mechanics Einstein considered five-dimensional classical Kaluza-Klein theory. He studied this theory most intensively during the years 1938-1943. One of his primary objectives was finding a non-singular particle solution. In the full theory this search got frustrated and in the x5-independent theory Einstein together with Pauli argued it would be impossible to find these structures."

First edition offprint issue of the second of Einstein and Mayer's four classic papers on semi-vectors in which they aimed to incorporate the Dirac equation into the general theory of relativity. "By introducing semi-vectors Einstein wanted to arrive at a mathematically simpler and more general formulation of spinors. The semi-vector generalization of the Dirac equation was thought to give a unified description of charged elementary particles in particular of the electron and proton. In their second semi-vector paper Einstein and Mayer were on the lookout for the most general Dirac system possible for the semivector" Van Dongen pp. 103-11. Large octavo pp. 20.
