Janssen's memoir: pp. 414-426. <br/><br/><em>First appearance of this milestone paper in chemistry physics and astronomy announcing the discovery of the helium lines in the spectrum of the sun. It was Lockyer in the same year that named it 'helium' for Helios the Greek God of the Sun. Helium was not discovered on the earth before 1895 by William Ramsay and it was Crookes who established its identity with the helium Janssen and Lockyer observed in the spectrum of the sun."He Janssen met immortality by travelling to India in 1868 to study the total eclipse. It was then that he observed the helium line and forwarded the spectral data to ockyer. He also noted the size of the solar prominences. The day after the eclipse he attempted to take their spectra again and succeeded despite the absence of the obscuring moon. he then announced jubilantly that it was the day after the eclipse that was the real eclipse day for him. Lockyer also reported this method of studying prominences without an eclipse.Like Lockyer he lived to see his observation of the helium line vindicated by Ramsay's discovery of that element on earth."Asimov."This the discovery of helium lines in the sun by Lockyer was announced on the same day by the French astronomer Janssen who was in India observing a total eclipse. As a result the French government some ten years later struck a medallion showing the heads of both scientists.By that time the two men had made a much more dramatic discovery at the same time this time in cooperation. Janssen studying the spectrum ofthe sun during the eclipse had noted a fine line he did not recognize. he send a report on this to Lockyer an acknowledges expert on solar spectra. Lockyer compared the reported position of the line with lines of known elements concluding that it must belong to a yeat unknown element possibly not even existing on the earth. He named the element from the Greek word for the sun."Asimov.Parkinson "Breakthroughs" 1868 A. - The volume contains other notable papers by Dumas Berthelot et al. </em> hardcover

Ångströms paper: pp. 290-302. <br/><br/><em>First appearance in German of Ångström's famous paper in which he announced the discovery of hydrogen in the atmosphere of the sun and in which he also confirmed the probable existence of of other elements there. The paper appeared in "Oefversigt af K. Vet. Acad. Förhandl." in 1861. The German paper here is expanded. At the same time it was translated into English and publishe as "On the Fraunhofer Lines Visible in the Solar Spectrum".Ångström was one of the early formulators of the science of modern spectroscopy; he wrote extensively on terrestrial magnetism the conduction of heat and especially spectroscopy. He published a monumental map of the normal solar spectrum that expressed the length of light waves in units of one ten-millionth of a millimeter a unit of length now known as the angstrom. He discovered that hydrogen is present in the sun's atmosphere and he was the first to examine the spectrum of the aurora borealis. </em> unknown

1868WRCAM1491New York 1868. 2755pp. printed in double-column format. Original pictorial wrappers. Spine split and mostly perished cover slightly soiled else good. A most interesting contribution to American theatre history relating the author's experiences on the boards in Mobile Selma New Orleans St. Louis etc. Either the theatre crowd was a tougher bunch then or Smith had a facility for evoking violence and low behavior from his colleagues and audiences because his narrative is studded with all sorts of encounters of the meanest sort. Evidently travelling actors were not particularly welcome in some areas and Smith resorted on one occasion to impersonating Amos Kendall so he would receive civil treatment during an overnight stay. The author also makes room for bits and snatches of text extracted from trade papers newspapers and overheard conversations as well as utterances by others. Fascinating. HOWES S672.
