Entire volume: VIII 776 pp. 6 folded plates. <br/><br/><em>First edition of Wilhelm Wien's highly influential paper on the phenomenon of radiation also known as Wien's displacement law. Wien followed Ludwig Boltzmann's approach when incorporating electrodynamics and thermodynamics in investigating radiation and its characteristics. "He argued that if a system reaches the same temperature by the increase of temperature or by the adiabatic compression of the volume containing heat radiation it should yield the same energy distribution. Considering also the Doppler effect of the radiation Wien arrived at an expression for energy distribution that states that the product of temperature and the wave length is a constant". Mathew Chandrankunnel Philosophy of physics 2000 4 p.Wien's empirical observations functioned as a starting point for Max Planck who wanted prove the theoretical foundation for Wien's wishing thus to justify the entropy law. Today Wien's approximation is also known as Wien-Planck law.This phenomenon was coined "Wien's displacement law" because the energy density curve is displaced correspondingly to the temperature; it implies that the hotter an object is the shorter the wavelength at which it will release most of its radiation. Wien's description of radiation awarded him the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1911. Wien's constant is today used in a wide range of different aspects of physics e.g. cosmic microwave background and the determination of how much energy is emitted from a light bulb.

B. Arthaud Paris 1954. 96 pp. Quarto 11 x 9 in./28 x 23 cm First edition. Vol. II in the collection "Les Imaginaires". Hardbound with illustrated boards. Original acetate jacket and printed belly band. 93 gravure reproductions printed by Braun & Co. BOOK CONDITION: Near Fine; a solid tight clean copy with light wear to edges and corners; in a Near Fine dust jacket with slight wear at crown of spine including a tiny chip and tear to acetate; in a Near Fine yellow belly band with signs of uneven fading.<br /> <br /> The scarce hardbound issue of Ronis's classic! Before his death in 2009 Willy Ronis was one of the last of the surviving documentary photographers in the humanist tradition of Kertesz and Cartier-Bresson. During the 40s and 50s he was a prolific chronicler of many corners of French social life especially the working people of Paris. He tended to wear his politics on his sleeve often photographing strikes demonstrations occupations of factories and the like. For this reason he also kept his distance from the American and British press. In this scarce volume Pierre Mac Orlan offers his paean to the authenticity of these working class neighborhoods of Belleville-Menilmontant. Ronis discovered the area through Daniel Pipart a painter and friend of his wife who kept a studio there. He visited and photographed regularly from 1947-1950 with the aim of one day making a book from the images. Ronis's images like countless Realist artists before him aim to capture the poetry of the streets. Ever respectful of his subjects Ronis's gaze is always affectionate and discrete. Unlike many documentary photographers who search out freaks and weirdoes Ronis seeks out the typical and the ordinary. Yet beneath the surface one senses a subtle sense of melancholy and muted nostalgia. A masterpiece of book design and typography! The images contained in Belleville-Menilmontant are certainly among Ronis's finest and provide an essential point of entry into his work. Included in MM. Auer: 802 Photo Books. B. Artaud hardcover
