1921032978Eindhoven: Physica / Nederlaandsch Tijdscrift Voor Natuurkunde 1921. 1st Edition 1st Printing. Soft cover. Very Good. An Issue Devoted To Articles About The Zeeman Effect And The Resulting Applications In Many Fields. George Ellery Hale's Article Is In English. Inscribed "Ueberreicht Von Paschen U Beck" At Top Of Front Cover. "In 1921 Two Experimental Physicists In Tübingen Friedrich Paschen 1865-1947 And Ernst Back 1881-1959 Observed That With Strongly Increasing Magnetic Field Strength The Complicated Multiplets Of The Anomalous Zeeman Effect Change Into The Simpler Patterns Typical Of The Normal Zeeman Effect See Fig. 1. Initially This Observation Remained Inexplicable. With The Discovery Of Spin In Late 1925 However And The Realization That The Anomalous Zeeman Effect Is Characteristic Of Systems With Spin S >0 Whereas The Normal Zeeman Effect Governs Atoms With A Total S = 0 The Paschen-Back Effect Could Be Understood As A Decoupling Of S And Orbital Angular Momentum L Since The Influence Of The Total Spin Becomes Neglectable For Diminishing Spin-Orbit Coupling."

Hughes Went Cavendish Laboratory At Cambridge Where He Studied Under J.J. Thomson Who Had Won The Nobel Prize In Physics In 1906. It Was At Cambridge That Hughes Carried Out What Some Consider His Finest Scientific Work Proving The Validity Of Einstein's Theory Of The Photoelectric Effect. In 1912 He Accepted A Teaching Position At The Newly-Founded Rice Institute In Texas. When World War I Broke Out Hughes Returned To England To Work On Anti-Submarine Devices. Shortly After The War He Left Rice To Take A Research Professorship At Queen's College In Ontario From Which He Was Called To St. Louis By Compton In 1923. For 15 Months In World War Ii Hughes Served As Assistant Director Of The Los Alamos Atomic Energy Project Acting As Recruiting Officer. In An Interview "I Never Saw Such A Collection Of Top Notch Scientists In My Life" He Said "And As You Probably Know Our Whole Chemistry Department Was Brought Lock Stock And Barrel From Los Alamos. I Think Six Of Those Men Are Still Here." "The Big Job Was To Persuade Scientists To Come To Los Alamos Without Telling Them What Was Going On. When I Arrived There Were 250 People In All Scientists And Technicians. When I Left 15 Months Later There Were About 3000." I Asked Hughes About Changes He Has Seen In Physics. "When I Came Here" He Said "We Were Rather Pedestrian In Our Attitude Toward Physics. I Suppose That Attitude Was Rather World-Wide Back Then. We Took Summer Vacations Because There Was No Paid Work To Be Done Then. Now No One Takes Long Vacations. Before World War Ii Physicists Were Hardly Known In Industry. Any Job Was Likely To Be In Teaching Or In Government Re Search. Nowadays Physicists Have Become Acceptable People." His Photoelectric Phenomena Published In 1933 With Dubridge Remained The Standard Work On The Subject Until 1959 When It Went Out Of Print. <br/> <br/> Cambridge University Press hardcover

No Names Or Marks Or Stains No Chipping Or Tears. Per Wikipedia Lawrence Sklar 1938 - 2024 Was An American Philosopher. Sklar Was Born In Baltimore Maryland In 1938 And Educated At Oberlin College B.A. 1954-1958 And Princeton University M.A. Ph.D. 1959-1964 Where He Worked With Hilary Putnam. He Worked At Swarthmore College From 1962 To 1966 First As An Instructor And Then As An Assistant Professor. He Then Worked As An Assistant Professor At Princeton University Until 1968. After 1968 He Worked At The University Of Michigan Where He Was A Distinguished University Professor Emeritus. He Held Visiting Professorships At The University Of Illinois 1963 The University Of Pennsylvania 1968 Harvard University 1970 Ucla 1973 And Wayne State University 1977. Sklar Specialized In The Philosophy Of Physics Approaching A Wide Range Of Issues From A Position Best Described As Highly Skeptical Of Many Of The Metaphysical Conclusions Commonly Drawn In The Physical Sciences. He Advocated The 'Mimo' Metaphysics In Metaphysics Out Principle Claiming That Much Of The Metaphysical Content Of Interpreted Theories In The Special Sciences Arises From Metaphysical Assumptions Made During Their Formulation. Although Physics Has Moved Much Since 1985 His Books Are Still Quite Worthwhile Reading. <br/> <br/> University of California Press hardcover

First Printing With Number Line Ending In "1" North-Holland Publisher Not The Springer Reprint. Fine Bookplate Of Dutch-American Physicist Jan Korrringa Who Was A Student Of Ehrenfest. Dust Jacket With Wear Short Tear At Top Of Front Panel Minor Losses At Edges. With A Photogra;H Of A Portrait Of Ehrenfest Signed By Ehrenfest In The Original But Not On This Copy. Per Wikipedia Paul Ehrenfest 1880 - 1933 Was An Austrian Theoretical Physicist Who Made Major Contributions To Statistical Mechanics And Its Relation To Quantum Mechanics. He Majored In Chemistry At The Vienna Institute Of Technology But Took Courses At The University Of Vienna In Particular From Ludwig Boltzmann On His Kinetic Theory Of Thermodynamics. These Lectures Had A Profound Influence. In 1903 He Met Dutch Physicist Hendrik Lorentz During A Short Visit To Leiden Netherlands. He Wrote His Dissertation On Die Bewegung Starrer Körper In Flüssigkeiten Und Die Mechanik Von Hertz The Motion Of Rigid Bodies In Fluids And The Mechanics Of Hertz And Obtained His Ph.D. On 23 June 1904 In Vienna Where He Stayed From 1904 To 1905. Because He Was Unwilling To Declare Belief In Any Religious Denomination He Could Not Apply For A Professorship And Therefore Had No Prospect Of Securing A Permanent Position.6 In 1912 Ehrenfest Toured German-Speaking Universities In The Hope Of A Position. He Visited Berlin Where He Saw Max Planck; Leipzig Where He Met His Old Friend German Mathematician Gustav Herglotz; Munich Where He Met Theoretical Physicist Arnold Sommerfeld; Zürich; And Vienna. In Prague He Met Albert Einstein For The First Time And They Remained Close Friends Thereafter. Einstein Recommended That Ehrenfest Succeed Him In His Position In Prague But The Plan Failed Since Ehrenfest Declared Himself An Atheist.78 Sommerfeld Offered Him A Position In Munich But Ehrenfest Received A Better Offer; At The Same Time There Was An Unexpected Turn Of Events: H. A. Lorentz Resigned His Position At The University Of Leiden And On His Advice Ehrenfest Was Appointed As His Successor. In October 1912 Ehrenfest Arrived In Leiden. To Stimulate Interaction And Exchange Among Physics Students Ehrenfest Organized A Discussion Group And A Study Association Called De Leidsche Flesch "The Leyden Jar". He Maintained Close Contact With Prominent Physicists In The Country And Abroad And Invited Them To Visit Leiden And Give Presentations In His Lecture Series. Among His Students Were Johannes Burgers Hendrik Kramers Dirk Coster George Uhlenbeck And Samuel Goudsmit Who Became Famous For Jointly Proposing The Concept Of Electron Spin Jan Tinbergen Arend Rutgers Hendrik Casimir Gerhard Dieke Dirk Struik And Gerard Kuiper. His Assistants Included Yuri Krutkov Viktor Trkal Adriaan Fokker Paul Epstein And Gregory Breit. Other Young Foreign Scientists Who Spent Extended Periods In His Laboratory Included Gunnar Nordström Enrico Fermi Igor Tamm Oskar Klein J. Robert Oppenheimer Walter Elsasser Ralph Kronig Werner Heisenberg Paul Dirac And David Dennison.Ehrenfest's Most Important Contribution From 1912 To 1933 Is The Theory Of Adiabatic Invariants A Concept Derived From Classical Mechanics That Can Serve To Refine Certain Methods Of Niels Bohr's Model Of The Atom And Also Creates An Association Between Atomic Mechanics And Statistical Mechanics. He Made Major Contributions To Quantum Physics Including The Theory Of Phase Transitions And The Ehrenfest Theorem Which States That Expectation Values Of A Quantum System Conform To Classical Mechanics. His Name Is Also Given To The Ehrenfest Paradox An Apparent Paradox Of Relativity To The Ehrenfest Model And To Ehrenfest Time The Time Characterizing The Difference Of Quantum Dynamics For Observables From Classical Dynamics. Ehrenfest Was Also Interested In Developing Mathematical Theories For Economics. His Student Jan Tinbergen Received A Nobel Prize In Economics. <br/> <br/> North-Holland Pub Co hardcover
