He further creates the concepts "experimental determination" and "local interieur"Bernard undertook the task of tracing out the various transformations of food stuffs within the animal organism beginning with the carbohydrates; and he not only found contrary to the accepted view that sugar was formed in the liver but he was also able to isolate a substance from the hepatic tissue which though not sugar was converted by fermentation into dextrose. He made a special study of its properties and called it "glycogen"."The culmination of Bernard's work on the glycogenic function of the liver. He invented the term "internal secretion" and can be said to have started the scientific investigation of the internal secretions although for 30 years the significance of his work was not generally realized. By his research on glycogene Bernard showed that the body not only can break down but can also build up complex chemical substances."Garrison & Morton .Claude Bernard 1813-78 was a key figure in French nineteenth-century science and one of the world's great physiologists. With good reason he has been called the ‘father of experimental medicine’.Garrison & Morton No. 1000 a. 999.1 </em> unknown

Berry's paper: pp. 45-57. Clean and fine. <br/><br/><em>First printing of the paper in which Berry describes his discovery of the "Berry phase" a unifying concept in quantum mechanics."In 1983 Berry made the surprising discovery that a quantum system adiabatically transported round a closed circuit in the space of external parameters acquires besides the familiar dynamical phase a non-integrable phase depending only on the geometry of the circuit. This Berry phase which had been overlooked for more than half a century provides us a very deep insight on the geometric structure of quantum mechanics and gives rise to various observable effects. The concept of the Berry phase has now become a central unifying concept in quantum mechanics with applications in fields ranging from chemistry to condensed matter physics. In particular the Berry phase plays an important role in modern magnetism an allows to reach a deeper understanding of a broad range of phenomena such as the spin-orbit coupling the Aharonov-Bohm effect the quantum Hall effect the anomalous Hall effect the magnon dynamics the tunneling of magnetization in molecular magnets etc. Further in the light of the Berry phase a number of new phenomena can be predicted in ferromagnets with a textured magnetization or in semiconductors with spin-orbit coupling."

In 1829 Jöns Jakob Berzelius of the Royal Karolinska Institute Stockholm extracted thorium from a rock specimen sent to him by an amateur mineralogist who had discovered it near Brevig and realised that it had not previously been reported. The mineral turned out to be thorium silicate and it is now known as thorite. Berzelius even produced a sample of metallic thorium by heating thorium fluoride with potassium and confirmed it as a new metal. He called the black mineral thorite in honor of the Scandinavian god Thor.Parkinson "Breakthroughs" 1829 C. </em> unknown
