Contact seller5-star seller1st Edition. FIRST EDITION OFFPRINT OF DOUGLAS HARTREE'S DEVELOPMENT OF THE "SELF-CONSISTENT FIELD METHOD TO THE CALCULATION OF ATOMIC WAVE FUNCTIONS OF POLYELECTRONIC ATOMS" (Dictionary of Scientific Biography, VI, 147). "Hartree played a fundamental role in the field of twentieth-century numerical analysis and its application…to theoretical physics" (ibid). "The mid- to late 1920s was a time of great change and excitement in theoretical physics, and Hartree was becoming a well-known figure in the field. When news of Erwin Schrödinger's work on wave mechanics reached Cambridge, Hartree was ideally placed to make a contribution.His experience of numerical integration of differential equations, gained during his ballistics work in World War I, was invaluable. Hartree was able to develop and apply numerical techniques to the solution of increasingly complex atomic structures" (ibid). By 1939 and with the publication of this paper, Hartree made "his chief contribution to science. his development of powerful methods of numerical mathematical analysis, which made it possible for him to apply successfully the so-called self-consistent field method to the calculation of atomic wave functions of polyelectronic atoms, that is, those which in the neutral condition have more than one electron surrounding the nucleus. These calculations involved the numerical solution of the partial differential equations of quantum mechanics for many-body systems subject to the usual boundary conditions. From the atomic wave functions it is possible to calculate the average distribution of negative electric charge as a function of distance from the nucleus. If the distribution has been correctly found for all the electrons in the atom under study, the electric field due to this distribution should lead to the original distribution, in which case the field is called self-consistent" (ibid). Note that one of the co-authors, Bertha Swirles, was a British physicist who carried out research on quantum theory, particularly in its early days. CONDITION & DETAILS: Complete. 4to. (12 x 9 inches, 300 x 225mm). Continuously paginated 229-247. Very light stamp of Yale Medical Library on the front wrap; armorial bookplate on rear of front wrap followed by a small paste on "Ex-Libris Harvey Cushing", the pioneering neurosurgeon for whom the library is named. Bound in original paper wraps with a bit of minor aging. Tightly bound. Pristine throughout. Very good.

Add to basketCondition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine. First edition, assumed second printing. An early cloth-bound printing of Hawking and Ellis' treatise. The copyright page reads "First published 1973 / First paperback edition 1974." Presumed to be the second printing of the first hardcover edition, perhaps issued simultaneo…usly with the paperback edition. Science Magazine recorded receiving Hawking's book on August 31, 1973, and didn't mention a paperback, just a $28.50 hardcover--a pricey book compared to $7.95 for a cloth-bound first edition of Kurt Vonnegut's novel Breakfast of Champions, published about the same time. Uncommon nonetheless.Bound in publisher's navy cloth with spine lettered and stamped in silver. Near Fine with light wear to covers, former owner's name of acclaimed physicist "T[oichiro] Kinoshita" on front free endpaper dated 1977, original receipts from Cambridge University Press addressed to Kinoshita laid-in. In a Near Fine price-clipped dust jacket with light sunning to spine and modest edge wear. A nice copy of Hawking and Ellis' treatise on the theoretical physics of spacetime, intended for specialists of general relativity. Provenance of theoretical physicist Toichiro Kinoshita (1925-2023), who was teaching at Cornell University as a professor of physics when he purchased this book. Kinoshita was known for his extensive calculations in quantum electrodynamics (QED). His calculation of the electronic moment of the electron contributed to some of the great physics discoveries of the 20th century.
