Pp355-365 Extracted From The Proceedings In Tan Wrappers Printed In Black A Publisher's Offprint. Covers Worn And Browned Tears At Spine Edges And 1/2" Chips At Top And Bottom Of Spine Panel. Pencil Ownership Name Of Hendrik Antoon Kramers Dutch Physicist Who Worked Primarily In Studies Of Magnetism At Top Of Front Cover As Was Kramers' Custom With His Library. Sir James Alfred Ewing Kcb 27 March 1855 7 January 1935 Was A Scottish Physicist And Engineer Best Known For His Work On The Magnetic Properties Of Metals And In Particular For His Discovery Of And Coinage Of The Word Hysteresis. It Was Said Of Ewing That He Was 'Careful At All Times Of His Appearance His Suits Were Mostly Grey Added To Which He Generally Wore - Whatever The Fashion - A White Piqué Stripe To His Waistcoat A Mauve Shirt A White Butterfly Collar And A Dark Blue Bow Tie With White Spots.' He Was Regarded As Brilliant And Successful But Was Conscious Of His Dignity And Position. On Appointment To Head The Newly Created Admiralty Codebreaking Department The Director Of Naval Intelligence Henry Oliver Described Him As 'Too Distinguished A Man To Be Placed Officially Under The Orders Of The Director Of Intelligence Or Chief Of Staff'. His First Wife Annie Was An American A Great Great Niece Of George Washington. In 1890 Ewing Took Up The Post Of Professor Of Mechanism And Applied Mechanics At The University Of Cambridge Initially At Trinity College Though He Later Moved To King's College. At Cambridge Ewing's Research Into The Magnetisation Of Metals Led Him To Criticise The Conventional Account Of Wilhelm Weber. In 1890 He Observed That Magnetisation Lagged Behind An Applied Alternating Current. He Described The Characteristic Hysteresis Curve And Speculated That Individual Molecules Act As Magnets Resisting Changes In Magnetising Potential. Note: According To The Book Sir Alfred Ewing: A Pioneer In Physics And Engineering 1946 By Professor Bates The Discovery Of Magnetic Hysteresis Probably Occurred Before Ewing. However Ewing Re-Discovered It Studied It In Detail And Coined The Word Hysteresis. Ewing Also Researched Into The Crystalline Structure Of Metals And In 1903 Was The First To Propose That Fatigue Failures Originated In Microscopic Defects Or Slip Bands In Materials. In 1895 He Was Awarded The Gold Medal Of The Royal Society For His Work On Magnetic Induction In Iron And Other Metals. Ewing Was A Close Friend Of Sir Charles Algernon Parsons And Collaborated With Him On The Development Of The Steam Turbine And He Later Married Parsons' Surviving Daughter. During This Time Ewing Published The Steam Engine And Other Heat Engines Around This Time. In 1897 He Took Part In The Sea-Trials Of The Experimental Vessel Turbinia Which Set A New Speed Record Of 35 Knots. During World War I From 1914 To May 1917 Ewing Managed Room 40 The Admiralty Intelligence Department Of Cryptanalysis Responsible Predominantly For The Decryption Of Intercepted German Naval Messages. In This Capacity He Achieved Considerable Fame In The Popular Press When Room 40 Deciphered The Zimmermann Telegram In 1917 Which Suggested A German Plot To Assist Mexico In Recovering The Southwestern United States. The Publication Of The Zimmermann Telegram Is Generally Credited As The Trigger Event Which Brought American Into The Great War. In May 1916 Ewing Accepted An Invitation To Become Principal Of The University Of Edinburgh In The Course Of Which He Instituted An Extensive Series Of Effective Reforms And Which He Held Until His Retirement In 1929. In 1927 He Gave A Lecture To The Edinburgh Philosophical Institution Which Contained The First Semi-Official Disclosure Of The Work Done By Room 40.

Dialogues on Modern Physics

1999059923Singapore: World Scientific Publishing Co Inc 1999. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Hardcover. Fine/No Jacket. Xxi 125 Pp. Black Cloth Gilt. First And Only Printing Hardcover Issiue. Fine In Fine Dust Jacket. Text Evolved From Lectures To An Honors Course For Undergraduates. Fine. Mendel Sachs 1927 -2012 Was An American Theoretical Physicist. His Scientific Work Includes The Proposal Of A Unified Field Theory That Brings Together The Weak Force Strong Force Electromagnetism And Gravity. Sachs Earned His Bachelors At The University Of California Los Angeles He Then Moved To Columbia University New York For Postgraduate Study. While At Columbia Sachs Was Taught By Willis Lamb And Hideki Yukawa.5 Yukawa Had Agreed To Be Sach's Thesis Advisor But Sachs Decided To Complete His Doctorate Back At Ucla. Following The Award Of His Phd In 1954 Sachs First Post-Doctoral Position Was At The New University Of California Radiation Laboratory At Both Berkeley And Livermore Which Was Run By Edward Teller And Ernest Lawrence And Was Also Home To Bryce Dewitt Who Sachs Would Later Co-Author Articles With In Physics Today. In 1956 Sachs Became A Senior Scientist At Lockheed Missiles And Space Laboratory While At Lockheed Sachs Began Developing With Solomon Schwebel A Field Theory Of Quantum Electrodynamics That Included Broken Symmetries That Did Not Require Recourse To Renormalization Or Perturbation Techniques - The "Schwebel-Sachs" Model. In 1961 He Became A Research Professor At Mcgill University; This Was Followed By A Post As Associate Professor Of Physics At Boston University 1962-1966. In 1964 While At Boston University Sachs Received An Invitation From Paul Dirac To Visit Cambridge University. Sachs Stayed In England For Three Months Where His Wife Yetty Had Family. Sachs Worked With Paul Dirac At The Department Of Applied Mathematics And Theoretical Physics Cambridge University. While Working With Dirac Sachs Also Had The Opportunity To Discuss Ideas With John G. Taylor John Polkinghorne And Graduate Students At Damtp. In 1965 Sachs Had Had A Breakthrough While At The Aspen Physics Institute Colorado. Sachs Was Able To Derive A Result For A Unified Field Theory If Quantum Mechanics Was Considered To Be A Linear Approximation For A Field Theory Of Inertia Expressed In General Relativity. Sachs Argued That The Work Of Albert Einstein And Erwin Schrödinger In General Relativity Did Not Yet Take Account Of The Inertia Of Matter Which Required Consideration Of The Mach Principle. In The Summer Of 1966 Abdus Salam Invited Sachs To Spend A Few Months At The International Centre For Theoretical Physics In Trieste Italy. During This Time Sachs Published The Details Of His Formal Structure Of Quantum Mechanics From A Generally Covariant Field Theory Of Inertia In The Italian Journal Il Nuovo Cimento. In The Autumn Of 1966 He Was Appointed Professor Of Physics At State University Of New York At Buffalo. <br/> <br/> World Scientific Publishing Co Inc hardcover

Johns Hopkins APL Technical Digest Volume 1

198052615Laurel MD: Johns Hopkins APL 1980. Presumed First Edition First printing thus. Hardcover. very good. 313 pages. Illustrations some in color. Maps. References. Notes. Indexes. Minor wear/soiling to boards. Bound volume includes Numbers 1-4. Binding has the name of R. J. Thompson in gilt lettering on front board. Dr. Thompson was Special Assistant to the Director of the Applied Physics Laboratory and had a long professional involvement with rocket technology development. He joined the Applied Physics Laboratory in 1974. The Johns Hopkins APL Technical Digest is an unclassified technical journal published quarterly by APL. The objective of the publication is to communicate the work performed at the Laboratory to its sponsors and to the scientific and engineering communities defense establishment academia and industry. Founded on March 10 1942-just three months after the United States entered World War II-APL was created as part of a federal government effort to mobilize scientific resources to address wartime challenges. APL was assigned the task of finding a more effective way for ships to defend themselves against enemy air attacks. The Laboratory designed built and tested a radar proximity fuze that significantly increased the effectiveness of anti-aircraft shells in the Pacific-and later ground artillery during the invasion of Europe. The product of the Laboratory's intense development effort was later judged to be along with the atomic bomb and radar one of the three most valuable technology developments of the war. On the basis of that successful collaboration the government The Johns Hopkins University and APL made a commitment to continue their strategic relationship. The Laboratory rapidly became a major contributor to advances in guided missiles and submarine technologies. Today more than seven decades later the Laboratory's numerous and diverse achievements continue to strengthen our nation. APL continues to relentlessly pursue the mission it has followed since its first day: to make critical contributions to critical challenges for our nation. Johns Hopkins APL hardcover
