In the words of James Clark Maxwell "We can scarcely believe that Ampère really discovered the law of action by means of the experiments which he describes. We are led to suspect what indeed he tells us himself that he discovered the law by some process which he has not shown us and that when he had afterwards built up a pefect demonstration he removed all traces of the scaffolding by which he raised it." The offered memoir was published BEFORE the famous "Theorie mathématique des phénomènes électro-dynamiques uniquement déduite de L'expérience" which did not appear until 1827.

"From 1814 until 1820 Ampére did not perform the kind of research that would have made it into the annals of the histrory of science but on September 11 1820 when he heard Francois Arago speak about Oersted's work he got fresh inspiration and started the work that made him famous. Arago related how Oersted had found that a steady electric current influences the orientation of a compass needle. After a weak Ampère had determined experimentally that that two straight parallel and current-carrying wires execute a force on each other. The magnitude of the force is inversely proportional to the distance between the wires and proportional to the strenghts of the current. During the following years he continued his researches both experimentally and theoretically. he built an instrument for measuring electricity that later was developed into the galvanometer.

In physics the term solenoid refers to a long thin loop of wire often wrapped around a metallic core which produces a magnetic field when an electric current is passed through it. Solenoids are important because they can create controlled magnetic fields and can be used as electromagnets. The term solenoid refers specifically to a magnet designed to produce a uniform magnetic field in a volume of space where some experiment might be carried out."The volume contains further importent papers by Poisson "Sur la Chaleur rayonnante" pp. 225-246 Note. pp. 442-44 Gay-Lussac Savart Pelletier et Caventou Becquerel etc. </em> hardcover

Internally clean and fine. <br/><br/><em>First German versions of Ampére's famous papers the first announcements of Ampère's discoveries on electromagnetism being the German version of Ampére's "Mémoires sur I'action mutuelle de deux courans électriques sur celle qui existe entre un courant électrique et un aimant ou le globe terrestre et celle de deux aimans I'un sur I'autre."Ampère first heard of Ørsted's discovery of electromagnetism on the 4th of September when Arago announced Ørsted's results to the Paris Academy of Sciences. In Ørsted's experiment a current-carrying wire is held over and under a compass needle - the result being that the needle is positioned at 45 degrees in respect to the wire. Ampére immediately saw that this result made no physical sense and realized that the true nature of the effect could not be observed until the force of terrestrial magnetism was somehow neutralized; what Ørsted had observed and reported on was the resultant of the force from the wire and that from the earth's magnetic field. Ampère discovered that the compass needle sets at 90 degrees to the current-carrying wire when the effect of terrestial magnetism is eliminated. He also observed that current-carrying wires which are formed as spirals act as permanent magnets and this lead him to his theory that electricity in motion produces magnetism and that permanent magnets must contain electrical currents. And thus Ampère laid the foundation of the new field of electrodynamics.Ampère announced his theory and experimental results for the first time in a series of memoires read before the Paris Academy of Sciences in September and October 1820. These memoires were first published in the September and October issues of Arago's 'Annales de Chimie et de Physique'. In November Ampère had a seperate printing of his findings published under the title 'Mémoires sur I'action mutuelle de deux courans électriques sur celle qui existe entre un courant électrique et un aimant ou le globe terrestre et celle de deux aimans I'un sur I'autre.' Dibner 62 Norman 43. Honeyman 82 Barchas 51 Wheeler 762.

When Faraday had completed his importent paper on Electro-magnetic motions the paper offered here in the first French edition he send it to Ampere. Ampere invented the Rotation Apparatus in order to repeat Faraday's experiment on the electro-magnetic rotation. He produced an uninterrupted rotation either of magnetic pole around a wire or of a wire around a magnetic pole. From these experiments originated a new theory of electricity and magnetism. - The third memoir is the First French edition of Faraday's famous paper "On some New Electro-Magnetical Motions and on the Theory of Magnetism" Quaterly Journal of Science October 1821 in which is recorded for the first time the conversion of electrical into mechanical energy. It also contains the first notion of the "Line of Force". He employed a magnet and a wire with a flowing current which causd each separately to rotate round the other. He concluded that a current-carrying wire is sorraunded by a circular "line of force". Oersted had spoken of the "electrical conflict" surrounding the wire and had noted that "this conflict performs circles". </em> hardcover
