Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. (FIZEAU) Foster, C.G. "On Fizeau's Experiments on "Newton's Rings", in Nature, volume 2, June 9 1870, in the weekly issue of pp 97-116, with the Fizeau on page 105. (This is just one page but it is a very tight two-columns of about 1200 words.) This is the full weekly issue, extracted from a larger bound volume. Very nice copy, tidy and crisp. The early volumes of NATURE are not common.|\| "A COMPARISON of the values given by Professor Ångström (in his magnificent Recherches sur le spectre solaire) for the wave-lengths corresponding to the two principal components of Fraunhofer's line D, with some observations made eight or nine years ago by M. Fizeau, not only reveals a remarkable agreement between the results of these two distinguished investigators, but yields one of the most striking confirmations of the truth of the undulatory theory of light that recent optical research has afforded."--Abstract from NATURE |\\| Other papers in this issue sound just lovely: "Longevity in Man and Animals", "the Aye Aye", "Lefthandedness", "The Chromatic Octave", "The Color of the Moon by Day and Night", "What is a Boulder", and of course "The New Australian Mud Fish".

[++] "Going Right and Making It Wrong: The Reception of Fizeau s Ether-Drift Experiment of 1859" by Jan Frercks, Boston Studies In The Philosophy Of Science book series (BSPS,volume 267) . "For Hippolyte Fizeau, everything in his ether-drift experiment of 1859 [one part of which is offered here in the CR, followed shortly thereafter the same year and in 1860 in the Annales de Chymie et de Physique] went right.1 He had expected a change in an optical effect caused by the motion of the Earth, and, indeed, he measured this change. The data corresponded neatly with his theory-based prediction. This was the first demonstration of the motion of the Earth with respect to the luminiferous ether. In fact, it remained the only experiment which proved such an effect. According to present-day knowledge, however, the effect deduced and measured by Fizeau is known not to exist, signaling that something must have gone fatally wrong in Fizeau s experiment. The problem is not that the experiment is based on the assumption of an ether, which is today is regarded as non-existent. The problem rather is that the data themselves must be judged as wrong in the sense of referring not to nature, but to some (unknown) property of the apparatus or the measuring procedure."

Hippolyte Fizeau proposed in May 1868 a method to use interferometry (a technique which uses the interference of superimposed waves to extract information) to measure the angular diameters of stars. It was a pioneering idea in the history of stellar interferometry, built on earlier work by Young (1803), Fresnel (1816-1818), Foucault and Arago (1850) and Fizeau's earlier work in 1851. Fizeau suggested that by using two widely spaced slits over a large telescope, it would be possible to observe interference fringes that could reveal the angular diameters of stars. This report by Fizeau ("Rapport sur le concours de l'annee 1867") was written by him (and unsigned) for the French Academy of Sciences for the Prix Borden commission in his capacity as rapporteur. His idea was proposed while discussing a mathematical idea on rigid bodies and while doing so introduced his idea on stellar interferometry. 714.3.

Saint-Clair-Duport - - - En 1666, Colbert crée une Académie qui se consacre au développement des sciences et conseille le pouvoir en ce domaine. Il choisit des savants, mathématiciens (astronomes, mathématiciens et physiciens) et des physiciens (anatomistes, botanistes, zoologistes et chimistes) qui tiennent leur première séance le 22 décembre 1666 dans la bibliothèque du Roi, à Paris. Pendant ses trente premières années, l'Académie fonctionne sans statuts. » La Révolution mit à rude épreuve l'Académie des sciences. Malgré la tentative de rester à distance du débat politique, l'institution fut entraînée à communiquer fréquemment avec l'Assemblée nationale, puis avec la Convention nationale. Lorsqu'elle fut chargée de préparer les éléments de la réforme générale des poids et mesures, elle nomma aussitôt cinq commissions pour la réaliser : Cassini, Méchain et Legendre s'occupent des mesures astronomiques ; Meusnier et Monge furent chargés de mesurer les bases terrestres avec une rigoureuse précision ; Borda et Coulomb étudièrent la longueur du pendule battant la seconde ; Lavoisier et Haüy déterminèrent le poids de l'eau distillée ; Tillet, Brisson et Vandermonde, dressèrent l'inextricable réseau des mesures anciennes. Durant cette période de prudence politique elle évitait de donner prise aux déclamations des clubs. Cependant, le 11 août 1792, le lendemain de la prise des Tuileries, le chimiste Antoine-François Fourcroy se leva et demanda qu'on lise la liste des académiciens pour y effectuer des radiations. La proposition fut repoussée ; mais, huit jours après, il la réitéra, faisant remarquer que la Société de médecine avait rayé plusieurs de ses membres émigrés ou notoirement convaincus d'incivisme et demandant le même traitement. Il lui fut répondu que « l'Académie ne doit pas prendre connaissance des principes de ses membres ni de leurs opinions politiques, le progrès des sciences étant son unique occupation » Lakanal essaya d'atténuer les effets de cette mesure en faisant décider que ses membres auraient le droit de s'assembler sans titre officiel dans le lieu ordinaire de leurs séances pour traiter des différents objets qui leur seraient déférés par la Convention. Les académiciens ne jugèrent néanmoins pas prudent de profiter de cette espèce de tolérance et se dispersèrent pour chercher, pour la plupart, à se faire oublier. Tous n'y réussirent pas et plus d'un fut atteint dans sa retraite par les tribunaux révolutionnaires, mais quelques-uns, dont Berthollet, restèrent en relation avec le Comité de salut public, pour y maintenir les droits de la science. Une évolution importante intervient en 1835 : sous l'influence de François Arago, paraissent les premiers numéros des Comptes rendus de l'Académie des sciences qui deviennent un instrument de première importance pour diffuser les travaux des scientifiques français et étrangers.

Very Good. __+__ "From 1844 Fizeau and Foucault undertook a series of precise and mechanically ingenious optical experiments that would ultimately have a profound effect on the course of physics. By the middle of the nineteenth century, most scientists had come to accept the wave theory of light, formulated near the beginning of the century by Thomas Young and Augustin Fresnel. There remained, however, several gaps in the investigation of the experimental consequences of the theory. For example, in the study of interference fringes produced by two rays of light issuing from the same source, only several dozen fringes on each side of the central band had been observed."--Dictionary of Scientific Biography.

Very Good. __+__ "On 19 August 1839 Arago made public a description of a new process of "light painting" or heliography that had been invented by L.-J.-M. Daguerre. The daguerrotype, as the result of this process soon came to be called, was a crude forerunner of the modern photograph. Fizeau's earliest work in science was an attempt to improve Daguerre's process and to make the heliograph an instrument of science. He showed that by covering the surface of the developed plate with a salt of gold, oxidation of the surface chemicals could be prevented and the contrasts between light and dark could be considerably heightened. He is often credited with the first use of bromine vapors to hasten the development of the photographic image, but this seems uncertain. Fizeau also introduced a widely used but unpatented method for turning a photograph into a photoetching."--Dictionary of Scientific Biography.
