1989HS-54Chicago Illinois: University of Chicago Press 1989. Comprehensive text presents a new history of the fundamental changes in optical theory at the beginning of the nineteenth century. In the physics of that period ether replaced the particle theory; in mathematics waves replaced rays. Buchwald reconstructs the first empirically successful theory of partial reflection originated by Etienne Louis Malus. He refutes the view of Thomas Young as champion of the wave theory arguing that the wave theory became coherent and new only in the work of French physicist Augustin Fresnel. Buchwald further demonstrates that even scientists who disgarded the particle theory retained its mathematical apparatus preventing their proper use of the new techniques. 474 pgs. Illustrated.

Fine In Fine Dust Jacket Priced $24.50. Laid In Loosely Is A Gift Card Signed By Wigner And Dated In 1965. Per Wikikpedia Eugene Paul Wigner 1902 - 1995 Was A Hungarian-American Theoretical Physicist Who Also Contributed To Mathematical Physics. He Received The Nobel Prize In Physics In 1963 "For His Contributions To The Theory Of The Atomic Nucleus And The Elementary Particles Particularly Through The Discovery And Application Of Fundamental Symmetry Principles". A Graduate Of The Technical Hochschule Berlin Now Technische Universität Berlin Wigner Worked As An Assistant To Karl Weissenberg And Richard Becker At The Kaiser Wilhelm Institute In Berlin And David Hilbert At The University Of Göttingen. Wigner And Hermann Weyl Were Responsible For Introducing Group Theory Into Physics Particularly The Theory Of Symmetry In Physics. Along The Way He Performed Ground-Breaking Work In Pure Mathematics In Which He Authored A Number Of Mathematical Theorems. In Particular Wigner's Theorem Is A Cornerstone In The Mathematical Formulation Of Quantum Mechanics. He Is Also Known For His Research Into The Structure Of The Atomic Nucleus. In 1930 Princeton University Recruited Wigner Along With John Von Neumann And He Moved To The United States Where He Obtained Citizenship In 1937. Wigner Participated In A Meeting With Leo Szilard And Albert Einstein That Resulted In The Einstein-Szilard Letter Which Prompted President Franklin D. Roosevelt To Authorize The Creation Of The Advisory Committee On Uranium With The Purpose Of Investigating The Feasibility Of Nuclear Weapons. Wigner Was Afraid That The German Nuclear Weapon Project Would Develop An Atomic Bomb First. During The Manhattan Project He Led A Team Whose Task Was To Design Nuclear Reactors To Convert Uranium Into Weapons Grade Plutonium. At The Time Reactors Existed Only On Paper And No Reactor Had Yet Gone Critical. Wigner Was Disappointed That Dupont Was Given Responsibility For The Detailed Design Of The Reactors Not Just Their Construction. He Became Director Of Research And Development At The Clinton Laboratory Now The Oak Ridge National Laboratory In Early 1946 But Became Frustrated With Bureaucratic Interference By The Atomic Energy Commission And Returned To Princeton. In The Postwar Period He Served On A Number Of Government Bodies Including The National Bureau Of Standards From 1947 To 1951 The Mathematics Panel Of The National Research Council From 1951 To 1954 The Physics Panel Of The National Science Foundation And The Influential General Advisory Committee Of The Atomic Energy Commission From 1952 To 1957 And Again From 1959 To 1964. In Later Life He Became More Philosophical And Published The Unreasonable Effectiveness Of Mathematics In The Natural Sciences His Best-Known Work Outside Technical Mathematics And Physics. <br/> <br/> Plenum Press hardcover

Former Owner's Name With His Address As The Beckman Institute Caltech With A 1993 Caltech Bookmark. From Wikipedia In Feb 2021: Peter R. Holland Is An English Theoretical Physicist Known For His Work On Foundational Problems In Quantum Physics And In Particular His Book On The Pilot Wave Theory And The De Broglie-Bohm Causal Interpretation Of Quantum Mechanics The Book Offered Here. Holland Was Educated At Hazelwick Comprehensive School In Crawley West Sussex And At Imperial College. He Did His Ph.D. On Algebraic Topological Methods In Physics Under David Bohm At Birkbeck College. Holland Has Worked At The University Of London Universite Pierre Et Marie Curie Paris Bristol Uwe And The University Of Oxford. He Is An Editor Of Physics Letters A. In 1993 Holland Published His Book "The Quantum Theory Of Motion'' In Which He Presented A Comprehensive Account Of The Causal Interpretation Of Quantum Mechanics Initiated By Louis De Broglie And In A More Complete Form By David Bohm. Drawing Upon Numerical Trajectory-Based Methods For Solving The Schrödinger Equation And Upon Methods Of Hydrodynamics Holland Showed In 2004 How The Time Evolution Of The Wavefunction Could Be Derived Exactly From The Dynamical Evolution Of A Congruence Of Spacetime Trajectories. The Method Achieves The Same Result As Richard Feynman's Path Integral Formulation The Mapping Of The Initial Wavefunction Through Time But Instead Of Using Feynman's 'All Possible Paths' Between Two Points It Employs At Most One Path. This Is A Considerable Conceptual Advantage In Understanding Quantum Motion And Is Potentially A Computational Benefit Too. Another Difference With Feynman Is That While The Trajectories Do The Job Of Evolving The Quantum System In Time The Initial Wavefunction Is Integral To The Trajectory Dynamical Equations As It Provides The Initial Density And The Initial Velocity. Using Riemannian Geometry Holland Formulated This Method In Very General Terms That Includes As Special Cases Quantum Many-Particle Systems And Spin. He Has Applied It To Other Field Theories Such As Electromagnetism And Second-Order Wave Equations. Holland Has Published Many Peer-Reviewed Articles On The Foundations Of Physics Including The Quantum Potential Quantum Hydrodynamics Quantum Field Theory Symmetries Hidden-Variables Theories Quantum Back-Reaction Quantum Hamilton-Jacobi Theory Classical-Like Quantum Systems And The History Of Physics. <br/> <br/> Cambridge University Press hardcover
