Entire issue in orig. wrappers. Savart's paper: pp. 113-172 and 3 folded engraved plates. <br/><br/><em>First printing of a pioneer paper on the acoustics of the violin and on the construction of the Trapezoidal Fiddle."In his earliest work Savart gave the first explanation of the function of certain parts of the violin. To learn how vibrations are transmitted from the strings to the rest of the instrument he induced vibrations in a free wood plate by passing a vibrating string over a bridge at its center; he also used Chladni’s sand-pattern technique to observe the resulting nodal lines. Savart showed that the bridge transmits the string’s vibrations; that the plate can be made to vibrate at any frequency; and that the corresponding mode is a modification of an unforced mode. He demonstrated that the sound post also serves to transmit vibrations and he explained that it therefore should not be placed under a nodal line. Thinking that symmetry and regularity would produce the best tone Savart built a trapezoidal violin with rectangular sound holes. When the instrument was played before a committee that included Biot the Composer Cherubini and other members of the Academy of Sciences and the Académie des Beaux-Arts its tone was judged as extremely clear and even but somewhat subdued."DSB.The issue also contains Eilhard Mitscherlich' famous paper in the first French version "Sur la Relation qui existe entre la forme cristalline et les proportions chimiques" pp. 172-190. </em> unknown

Entire issue: Pp. 159-254. <br/><br/><em>First printing of the Reviews of Modern Physics issue entirely dedicated to the International Congress on Theoretical Physics held in Seattle Washington 1957. The congress turned out to be exceptionally important in the field of superconductivity and Feynman here presented his only paper on the subject even though he spend most of the 1950ies on precisely this. Feynman's work on the subject led directly to Bardeen's focus on the subject which eventually resulted on Bardenn Leon Cooper and John Robert Schrieffer published their famous BCS-theory paper in 1957:"John Bardeen already well-known for his work leading to the discovery of the transistor turned his full attention to superconductivity in 1951 having realized that the isotope effect identified the interaction between electrons that must be responsible for the phenomenon. The basic idea would be a Fermi-degenerate gas of nearly free electrons with a weakly attractive interaction by way of the lattice phonons. Solving that problem - for example finding the ground state of such a system - proved to be a difficult task. There was also the threat of powerful competition. Richard Feynman one of the masters of quantum electrodynamics could not help but notice the similarity between that problem and this one. By 1955 by then at the University of Illinois at Urbana Bardeen decided that reinforcements were needed. He called up C. N. Yang at the Institute for Advanced Study at Princeton to ask for a postdoc versed in the kind of field theory one uses in quantum electrodynamics. Yang recommended Leon Cooper. At about the same time one of Bardeen's graduate students J. Robert Schrieffer decided to work on superconductivity. The team was assembled. In the cramped quarters of the University of Illinois physics department Bardeen and Cooper had to share an office a hardship that did not prove to be an obstacle to progress. The team worked furiously in early 1957 driven in part by the feeling that Feynman was hot on the trail using powerful new techniques they knew little about. However it was not Feynman but Bardeen Cooper and Schrieffer who produced the microscopic theory" Goodstein Richard Feynman and the History of Superconductivity. </em> unknown
