"Berni undertook the revision of the whole poem avowedly altering no sentiment removing or adding no incident but simply giving to each line and stanza due gracefulness and polish. His task he completed with marvellous success; scarcely a line remains as it was and the general opinion has pronounced decisively in favour of the revision over the original.

elala5920Charlottetown: 1786. Memorial of Lieut. Col. Thomas Desbrisay relating to an unpaid debt owed to Dan Grandin a court lawyer who acted on his behalf in cases against two of his tenants. Desbrisay was a major land speculator in the colony buying up large tracts of land even before taking up his office ten years after his appointment as Lieutenant-Governor. He first attempted to recruit settlers in Ireland before the British government forbade the practice in 1773. Despite charges by the Governor Walter Patterson that he had attempted to interfere in the proper allocation of colonial funds and was unfit to hold office and the fact that he had swindled prospective settlers by selling them land he had mortgaged he was not removed from office. Once arrived in St. John’s he granted some 400 crown lots in Charlottetown Royalty including many to himself and his family. Still he remained Lieutenant-Governor even after he and the others were forced to surrender land to the Crown. With the reorganization of the colonial administration in 1784 the office of governor of St John’s Island was eliminated and Patterson replaced Desbrisay as Lieutenant Governor. one-page folio. horizontal folds paper lightly embrowned. matted & framed size of frame: 31.8 x 20.3 cm. x 36.8 cm.; 12.5 x 8 inches. elala5920 Charlottetown: 1786 unknown

19351517Berlin: Julius Springer 1935. 1st Edition. FIRST EDITION FULL VOLUME OF THE PREISACH MODEL OF HYSTERESIS; BOUND WITH VOLKOV'S "EXACT SOLUTION TO THE DIRAC EQUATION FOR AN OTHERWISE FREE ELECTRON INTERACTING WITH AN ELECTROMAGNETIC PLANE WAVE" Guo Exact Wave Functions 39. The origin of the Preisach model can be traced to this "landmark paper" Mayergoyz Mathematical Models of Hysteresis 1. <br /> <br /> The Preisach model is a well-known hysteresis identification method in which the hysteresis is modeled by linear combination of hysteresis operators. First introduced by Ferenc Franz Preisach in this paper the widely accepted Preisach model of hysteresis "generalizes hysteresis loops as the parallel connection of independent relay hysterons" a two-valued operator used to model hysteresis Wikipedia <br /> <br /> Hysteresis is a form of non-linearity with memory an example being a magnet that may "have more than one possible magnetic moment in a given magnetic field depending on how the field changed in the past" Wikipedia. In the Preisach model specifically hysteresis is described starting from the hypothesis that a free-energy profile characterized by multiple local minima and metastable state can be decomposed into a set of many elementary bistable contribution. Each bistable unit can occupy one of two states and - and is characterized by tw0 reduced fields the local coercive field and an interaction field" Mayergoyz The Science of Hysteresis 101. <br /> <br /> "Preisach's approach was purely intuitive. It was based on a plausible hypotheses concerning the physical mechanisms of magnetization. For this reason the Preisach model was first regarded as a physical model of hysteresis" Mayergoyz. The model remains frequently in use is a wide variety of the sciences — from mathematics to engineering mechanics economics and biology. <br /> <br /> VOLKOV PAPER: First edition of Volkov's solution Volkov State of the Dirac equation — an exact solution for the system of one electron in a plane electromagnetic wave. "The state of the charged particle known as Volkov state has been used extensively to explore numerous quantum phenomena such as Compton scattering photo-ionization bremsstrahlung processes and Kapitza-Dirac problem scattering of an electron by a standing light wave etc." Yuce Free Electron in a Laser Field Feb. 1 2008.
