Third series, volume. 23. viii, 696 pp. Plus 8 folding plates. The full volume is offered here, completely and beautifully rebound in decorated paper covered boards, with a hand-lettered paper spine label, all of which has been antiqued so that the volumes look as if they're in a contemporary binding. FINE copy. [++] The Rontgen paperon the heat absorption in vapor--appears on pp. 1-40 and 259-298, plus two folding plates; the Hertz paper appears on pp. 84-103. "Having constructed a very sensitive air thermometer, he [Rontgen] was able to measure the absorption of heat in water vapor, and his flair for experiment was also shown by his work on the compressibility of liquids and solids."--Complete DSB online [++] The Hertz paper is a significant contribution where he gives proofs of Maxwell's fundamental equations. "In 1884, at Kiel, Hertz had already carried out a study of Maxwell's theory. It was a theoretical response to Helmholtz' general problem of deciding between rival electrodynamic theories. Whereas Helmholtz had shown that the experimental decision lay with unclosed currents, Hertz showed that a theoretical decision could be made on the basis of predictions for closed currents. Hertz proved that Maxwell's equations were compatible with the physical assumptions shared by all electrodynamic theories and that the equations of the contending theories were not. He concluded that if the choice lay solely between Maxwell's equations and the equations of the other type of theory, then Maxwell's were clearly preferable; he did not, however, endorse Maxwell's physical interpretation of his equations, in particular Maxwell's denial of action at a distance. Indeed when Hertz returned to Maxwell's theory in Karlsruhe, he did so within the action-at-a-distance framework of Helmholtz' general theory of 1870. With it he felt more at home, less committed to unproved hypotheses than with Maxwell's theory."--Complete DSB online. [++] "This paper of Hertz [is of] pivotal importance in Hertz's development as a physicist. It marks the beginning of Hertz's conversion to Maxwell's ideas, and forms the basis fir all his future contributions, both theoretical and experimental, to electromagnetism. D'Agostino (1975) was the first to point out thee importance of this paper in the development of Hertz's ideas."--Joseph Mulligan, "Heinrich Rudolf Hertz, 1857-1894, a Collection of Articles and Addresses", Routledge, 1994, p 127.

Wrappers a bit browned, otherwise, a very good, clean copy. "While performing experiments with a Crookes vacuum tube, a type of cathode-ray tube, Röntgen observed that some agent produced in the tube was causing barium platinocyanide crystals to fluorescence was caused by unknown rays (which he named "x-rays") originating from the spot where cathode rays hit the glass wall of the vacuum tube. He announced his discovery in the present paper, which described the rays' photographic properties and their amazing ability to penetrate all substances, even living flesh. Although he was unable to determine the true physical nature of the rays, Röntgen was certain that he had discovered something entirely new, a belief soon confirmed by the work of other scientists such as Becquerel, Laue and the Curies. for his discovery, Röntgen was awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics for 1901. "Röntgen submitted his paper for publication in the obscure Sitzungs-Berichte of the Würzburg Physical-Medical Society, a strategy deliberately employed to assure fast publication. Offprints of the article were printed at the same time, which Röntgen mailed (along with several x-ray photographs) to a number of scientific colleagues; the [first edition] offprint has wrappers but no title-page, and is dated "Ende 1895." 'It was this separate printing, and the following four additional printings in five issues, that were primarily responsible for the rapid dissemination of the news of Röntgen's discovery."

Hardcover. Etat : Fine. 1st Edition. First complete edition of Rontgen's announcement of the discovery of the X-Ray. "Hertz and Lenard had published on the penetrating powers of cathode rays (electrons) and Rontgen thought that there were unsolved problems worth investigation. As a preliminary to viewing the cathode rays on a fluorescent screen, Rontgen completely covered his discharge tube with a black card, and then chanced to notice that such a screen lying on a bench some distance away was glowing brightly. Although others had operated Crookes tubes in laboratories for over thirty years, it was Rontgen who found that X rays are emitted by the part of the glass wall of the tube that is opposite the cathode and that receives the beam of cathode rays. He spent six weeks in absolute concentration, repeating and extending his observations on the properties of the new rays. He found that they travel in straight lines, cannot be refracted or reflected, are not deviated by a magnet, and can travel about two meters in air. He soon discovered the penetrating properties of the rays. The apparent magical nature of the new rays was something of a shock even to Rontgen. On 22 December he brought his wife into the laboratory and made an X-ray photograph of her hand. It was no doubt the possibility of seeing living skeletons, thus pandering to man's morbid curiosity, that contributed to the peculiarly rapid worldwide dissemination of the discovery." In 1901 Rontgen won the first Nobel Prize awarded in physics "in recognition of the extraordinary services he has rendered by the discovery of the remarkable rays subsequently named after him." "About a new kind of rays" was published originally in separate issues of the rare journal Sitzungsberichte der Wurzberger Physik-medic (1895, 1896) before being published, together with "Further Observations", in Annalen der Physik in 1898.

1st Edition. IN RARE ORIGINAL WRAPS, THE 1898 FIRST COMPLETE EDITION OF RONTGEN'S ANNOUNCEMENT OF THE DISCOVERY OF THE X-RAY, INCLUSIVE OF ALL 3 PAPERS and housed in a custom cloth box. For this work, Rontgen was awarded the first Nobel Prize in Physics in 1901. "Their importance in surgery, medicine, and metallurgy is well known. Incomparably the most important part of Rontgen's experiments, however, is his discovery of matter in a new form, which has completely revolutionized the study of chemistry and physics" (Printing and the Mind of Man, 380). "Herald[ing] the age of modern physics and revolutionized diagnostic medicine", the importance of Rontgen's discovery was quickly understood (Curley, The 100 Most Influential Inventors of All Time, Britannica Guide,128). Laue and the Braggs would go on to use X-rays to show us the atomic structure of crystals. Mosely used them to reconstruct the periodic table of the elements. Becquerel was directly inspired by Rontgen's results to begin an investigation that discovered radio-activity. J. J. Thomson enunciated the electron theory as a result of investigating the nature of X-rays (PMM 380). The X-ray diffraction picture of a DNA molecule, clearly a helix, seen in Rosalind Franklin's data was Crick and Watson's inspiration for their DNA model. In 1894, "Hertz and Lenard had published on the penetrating powers of cathode rays (electrons) and Rontgen thought that there were unsolved problems worth investigation. As a preliminary to viewing the cathode rays on a fluorescent screen, Rontgen completely covered his discharge tube with a black card, and then chanced to notice that such a screen lying on a bench some distance away was glowing brightly. Although others had operated Crookes tubes in laboratories for over thirty years, it was Rontgen who found that X rays are emitted by the part of the glass wall of the tube that is opposite the cathode and that receives the beam of cathode rays.

"On 22 December he brought his wife into the laboratory and made an X-ray photograph of her hand. It was no doubt the possibility of seeing living skeletons, thus pandering to man's morbid curiosity, that contributed to the peculiarly rapid worldwide dissemination of the discovery" (Dictionary of Scientific Biography, XI, p. 530). Of Rontgen's discovery: "One of the most important advances in the history of scientific development" (Heirs of Hippocrates). "Here, Rontgen unveiled a new form of matter and offered a new revolutionary method for medical diagnosis, being the greatest advance in diagnostic medicine since the invention of the stethoscope" (Norman). "Practically every science was improved by the new technique" (Dibner). In 1901 the first Nobel Prize in Physics 1901 was awarded to Wilhelm Conrad Rontgen â??in recognition of the extraordinary services he has rendered by the discovery of the remarkable rays subsequently named after him' (Nobel Prize Committee). "About a new kind of rays" was published originally in separate issues of the rare journal Sitzungsberichte der Wurzberger Physik-medic (1895, 1896) before being published, together with "Further Observations", in Annalen der Physik in 1898" [this issue] (DSB).
