'Subtle is the Lord."; The Science and the Life of Albert Einstein

198276386New York: Oxford University Press 1982. Presumed First U. S. Edition First printing. Hardcover. Very good/Good. xvi 552 8 pages. Frontis illustration. Footnotes. Appendices. Einstein Chronology. Name Index. Subject Index. DJ has wear tears soiling and chips. Abraham Pais May 19 1918 - July 28 2000 was a Dutch-born American physicist and science historian. Pais earned his Ph.D. from University of Utrecht just prior to a Nazi ban on Jewish participation in Dutch universities during World War II. When the Nazis began the forced relocation of Dutch Jews he went into hiding but was later arrested and saved only by the end of the war. He then served as an assistant to Niels Bohr in Denmark and was later a colleague of Albert Einstein at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton New Jersey. Pais wrote books documenting the lives of these two great physicists and the contributions they and others made to modern physics. He was a physics professor at Rockefeller University until his retirement. During World War II Pais's doctoral dissertation had attracted the attention of Niels Bohr who invited him to come to Denmark as his assistant. Pais was forced into hiding before he could leave the Netherlands. In 1946 following the war Pais was able to accept that invitation and served as a personal assistant to Bohr at his country home in Tisvilde for a year. In 1947 he accepted a position at the Institute for Advanced Study in the United States and thus became a colleague of Albert Einstein. "Subtle is the Lord—" won the 1983 U.S. National Book Award in Science. Since the death of Albert Einstein in 1955 there have been many books and articles written about the man and a number of attempts to "explain" relativity. Throughout the preparation of this book Pais has had complete access to the Einstein Archives and the invaluable guidance of the late Helen Dukas--formerly Einstein's private secretary. Written with Pais' intimate and incomparable knowledge of Einstein Subtle is the Lord will delight and inspire anyone fascinated by the man whose revolutionary ideas have defined modern physics. Subtle is the Lord is widely recognized as the definitive scientific biography of Albert Einstein. Pais was a distinguished physicist turned historian who knew Einstein both professionally and personally in the last years of his life. His biography combines a profound understanding of Einstein's work with personal recollections from their years of acquaintance illuminating the man through the development of his scientific thought. Pais examines the formulation of Einstein's theories of relativity his work on Brownian motion and his response to quantum theory with authority and precision. The profound transformation Einstein's ideas effected on the physics of the turn of the century is here laid out for the serious reader. Pais also fills many gaps in what we know of Einstein's life - his interest in philosophy his concern with Jewish destiny and his opinions of great figures from Newton to Freud. This remarkable volume written by a physicist who mingled in Einstein's scientific circle forms a timeless and classic biography of the towering figure of twentieth-century science. Albert Einstein 14 March 1879 - 18 April 1955 was a German-born theoretical physicist widely acknowledged to be one of the greatest physicists of all time. Einstein is best known for developing the theory of relativity but he also made important contributions to the development of the theory of quantum mechanics. Relativity and quantum mechanics are together the two pillars of modern physics. His mass-energy equivalence formula E = mc2 which arises from relativity theory has been dubbed "the world's most famous equation". His work is also known for its influence on the philosophy of science. He received the 1921 Nobel Prize in Physics "for his services to theoretical physics and especially for his discovery of the law of the photoelectric effect" a pivotal step in the development of quantum theory. His intellectual achievements and originality resulted in "Einstein" becoming synonymous with "genius" Oxford University Press hardcover

Behaviour of Neutral Particles Under Charge Conjugation-Article Gell-Mann Pais pp. 1387-1389 WITH Boson-Fermion Scattering in the Heisenberg Representation Low pp. 1392-1399 in The Physical Review 97 No. 5 March 1 1955 INDIVIDUAL ISSUE ORIGINAL WRAPPERS

19551558Lancaster: American Physical Society 1955. 1st Edition. FIRST EDITION IN ORIGINAL WRAPPERS of a paper in which Murray Gell-Mann and Abraham Pais make an interesting prediction about the decay of the kaon. A paper by Francis Low is also included more below. "Murray Gell-Mann and Abraham Pais 1955 used an argument based on C invariance. to discuss the production and decay of a particle known as the neutral K meson or K0. This particle according to a theory by Gell-Mann and Kazuo Nishijima carried a quantum number called strangeness with SK0 = 1 and so there should exist a neutral anti-K meson called K 0 with SK 0 = -1. The theory demanded that strangeness be conserved in K-meson production but violated in its decay. Both the K0 and the K0 should be able to decay to a pair of mesons e.g. . How then would one tell them apart Gell-Mann and Pais solved this problem by applying a basic idea of quantum mechanics: The particle decaying to would have to have the same behavior under C in 1957 under CP as the final combination which has CP = 1. That is its quantum-mechanical state is taken into itself under the CP operation. A quantum-mechanical combination of K0 and K 0 with this property was called K0 1 . There should then exist another combination of K0 and K 0 with CP = -1 i.e. its quantum-mechanical state is changed in sign under the CP operation. This particle was called K0 2 . The subscripts 1 and 2 were used simply to distinguish the two particles from one another. The 2 K0 2 would be forbidden by CP invariance from decaying to and thus being required to decay to three-body final states would be much longer-lived. This predicted particle was discovered in 1956" Rosner CP Symmetry Violation 1. In 1969 Gell-Man was awarded a Nobel Prize in Physics "for his work in classifying elementary particles and their interactions." FRANCIS LOW PAPER: "It is shown that the S-matrix for boson-fermion scattering can be simply expressed in the Heisenberg representation. By performing a time integration one obtains the S-matrix in the Schrödinger representation which has the same form as the conventional perturbation theory sum over states. Suitably limiting the nature of the intermediate states entering into this sum leads to integral equations for certain matrix elements which are equal to the S-matrix elements on the energy shell. These equations appear in a completely renormalized form" Abstract. CONDITION & DETAILS: 1st ed. original wrappers. Complete issue paginated 1191-1417. 4to 10.5 x 8 inches; 263 x 200mm.
