Clean and fine. <br/><br/><em>First appearance of these milestone papers in Quantum Physics constituting the first step in Quantum Field Theory and the invention of the Second Quantifization Method. By these papers Dirac "gave the foundation for that theory quantum electrodynamics"Pais."A New Radiation Theory. Dirac liked his transformation theory because it was the outcome of a planned line of research and not a fortuitous discovery. He forced his future investigations to fit it. The first results of this strategy were almost miraculous. First came his new radiation theory in February 1927 which quantized for the first time James Clerk Maxwell’s radiation in interaction with atoms. Previous quantum-mechanical studies of radiation problems except for Jordan’s unpopular attempt retained purely classical fields. In late 1925 Jordan had applied Heisenberg’s rules of quantization to continuous free fields and obtained a light-quantum structure with the expected statistics Bose Einstein and dual fluctuation properties. Dirac further demonstrated that spontaneous emission and its characteristics—previously taken into account only by special postulates—followed from the interaction between atoms and the quantum field. Essential to this success was the fact that Dirac’s transformation theory eliminated from the interpretation of the quantum formalism every reference to classical emitted radiation contrary to Heisenberg’s original point of view and also to Schrödinger’s concept of as a classical source of field.This work was done during Dirac’s visit to Copenhagen in the winter of 1927. Presumably to please Bohr who insisted on wave-particle duality and equality Dirac opposed the "corpuscular point of view" to the quantized electromagnetic "wave point of view." He started with a set of massless Bose particles described by symmetric waves in configuration space. As he discovered by’ playing with the equations ’ this description was equivalent to a quantized Schrödinger equation in the space of one particle; this’ second quantization’ was already known to Jordan who during 1927 extended it into the basic modern quantum field representation of matter. Dirac limited his use of second quantization electromagnetic to radiation: to establish that the corpuscular point of view once brought into this form was equivalent to the wave point of view."DSB. </em> hardcover

Cartan's papers: pp.437-439 593-595 734-737 857-60 1104-1107. <br/><br/><em>First edition of these papers in which Cartan intruced the concept of "Torsion" the main inspiration for Einstein in his searce for a unified field theory. The ECT of gravity is a modification of the General relativity Theory"The Einstein-Cartan theory also known as the Einstein-Cartan-Sciama-Kibble theory is a classical theory of gravitation similar to general relativity but relaxing the assumption that the affine connection has vanishing antisymmetric part torsion tensor so that the torsion can be coupled to the intrinsic angular momentum spin of matter much in the same way in which the curvature is coupled to the energy and momentum of matter. In fact the spin of matter in curved spacetime requires that torsion is not constrained to be zero but is a variable in the principle of stationary action. Regarding the metric and torsion tensors as independent variables gives the correct generalization of the conservation law for the total orbital plus intrinsic angular momentum to the presence of the gravitational field. The theory was first proposed by Élie Cartan in 1922 and expounded in the following few years. Dennis Sciama and Tom Kibble independently revisited the theory in the 1960s and an important review was published in 1976. Albert Einstein became affiliated with the theory in 1928 during his unsuccessful attempt to match torsion to the electromagnetic field tensor as part of a unified field theory. This line of thought led him to the related but different theory of teleparallelism." Wikipedia. </em> hardcover

Fine and clean. <br/><br/><em>First apperance of the famous Franck-Hertz Experiment which is considered as a new and independent support not only of Planck's quantum theory and Einstein's light-quantum hypothesis but also of Bohr's theory of the atom with stationary states of discrete energies.Franck and Hertz were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1925 for this work and Franck concluded his Nobel lecture with the words "We know only to well that we owe the wide recognition that our work received to contact with the great concepts and ideas of M. Planck and in particular Niels Bohr.""In their famous experiments Franck and Hertz' showed that electrons could impart energy to a mercury atom only if they had a kinetic energy exceeding 4.9 ev. and that exactly this quantum of energy was taken up by the mercury atom causing it to emit light of the resonance line Å 2537. It was the first direct proof of the quantized nature of the energy transfer and of the connection of the quantum DeltaE of energy with the frequency p = DeltaE/h of the light emitted as the result of the transfer. These experiments are rightly regarded as the first decisive proof of the reality of the quantized energy levels that had just been postulated by Niel’s Bohr."

First edition. "In this paper. two considerations are given which are interrelated by a common goal inasmuch as it is attempted to derive two of the most importent achievementss of quantum theory viz. Planck's radiation law and Nernst's third law of thermodynamics in a new manner. The proofs do not involve Boltzmann's equation and are thus based enterely on macroscopic thermodynamics. They do introduce however the quantum hupothesis. Einstein points out that the alleged 'proofs' which try to derive the theorem of Nernst from the mere fact that the heat capacity of all substances goes to zero at absolute zero temterature are not genuine."

First edition of this very scarce dealer’s promotional packet extolling the virtues of the Boysen Colorizer System complete with sales pitch and fantastic photographs showing the displays and products. The original Colorizer System was developed in the 1930s by two anonymous entrepreneurs in Salt Lake City UT. In 1949 they contracted with the Walter N. Boysen Paint Company in Oakland CA to produce the paints which were then introduced nationwide as a rapid paint-formulation system in a House & Garden Magazine article. The original system adopted by Boysen consisted of 1322 paint colours derived from 31 concentrated colourants as well as white and light gray base paints into which the concentrates were mixed. The brochure and photographs provide a fantastic guide for the marketing of the system with a paint sample album for 60-second color matching Color Center chip display as well as the national advertising campaign pushed by Boysen. The photographs include a photo of painter and housewife examining the sample book by Joern Gerdts Commercial Photographer Salt Lake City UT; Boysen Colorizer Paints advertising spot on the Ed Sullivan Show at CBS photo by Joseph Alpern Beverly Hills CA; an anniversary Boysen Paint Sale window display and more.
