Add to basketHardcover. Condition: Very Good. J.J. Thomson, James Dewar, William Sutherland, and others. "The London, Edinburgh, and Dublin Philosophical Magazine and Journal of Science", printed in London, Richard and John E.Taylor, fifth series, volume XL, July-December, 1895. 8vo, viii, 552pp, 7 engraved plates. Bound in half calf with de…corated boards, calf tips, with raised bands. Condition: there is some small amount of scuffing to the spine and along the joints and tips, though not overly so; this is a tight, crisp, sturdy copy. Very Good. There are a number of interesting articles in this volume of the Philosophical Magazine, including the significant entry by J.J. Thomson: "On the Relation between the Atom and the Charge of Electricity Carried by it", pp 511-544 " "that Paper and the deductions which Prof THOMSON has drawn therefrom mark one of the most important stages in the history of chemical theory. A careful perusal of that Paper can hardly fail to carry conviction in regard to the main propositions as to the dependence of chemical reaction upon the actual electrification and the normal electro-chemical properties of the atoms concerned."--The Electrician, Feb 7, 1896. Other papers in this volume include William Sutherland (1859-1911, and expert in molecular physics), "On the Fundamental Atomic Laws of Thermochemistry," another very long article by him, pp 1-56, and a good point of reference for this scientist whose long association with the Phil Mag began just a few years before; James Dewar and J.A. Fleming, "On the Thermoelectric Powers of Metals and Alloys.", pp 95-119; Myer Wildermann, "Experimental Proof of Van't Hoff's Constant, of Arrenhius' Generalization, and Ostwald's Law of Dilution", pp 119-144; John Trowbridge and William Duane, "On the Velocity of Electric Waves", pp 211-225 (I should point out that the less-known Duane's obituary was written in 1935 for the National Academy of Science by P.W. Bridgman); Liveing and Dewar, "On the refraction and Dispersion of Liquid Oxygen, and the Absorption Spectrum of Liquid Air", pp 268-272; James Dewar and J.A. Fleming, "On the Variation in the Electrical resistance of Bismuth, when collected to the temperature of Solid Air", pp 303-311; George Johnstone Stoney, "On the Kinetic Theory of Gas, regarding as illustrating Nature", pp 362-383.

Contact seller5-star seller1st Edition. FIRST EDITION OF THE BRACE EXPERIMENT, "THE FIRST OPTICAL EXPERIMENT MEASURING THE RELATIVE MOTION OF EARTH AND THE LUMINIFEROUS AETHER WHICH WERE SUFFICIENTLY PRECISE TO DETECT MAGNITUDES OF SECOND ORDER TO V/C" (Wikipedia). Brace's results were negative, "which was of gret importance for the development of the Lor…entz transformation and consequently of the theory of relativity" (ibid). The American physicist and specialist in optics "examined the question [of] whether the Earth's motion may cause a body to become doubly refracting," something which as first sight might be expected (PRNAAS, 1904, 6, 809). Earlier in his career, Brace developed "extremely sensitive optical techniques" to one of the critical problems of the time (Dictionary of Scientific Biography, II, 382). "Two years earlier, Lord Rayleigh had proposed that the Lorentz-Fitzgerald contraction, if it existed, might produce an observable double refraction in a moving transparent medium. Rayleigh made experiments in which he failed to find the predicted effect, but his work was not quite accurate enough to be conclusive. Brace pointed this out and reconducted the investigation in his own laboratory, establishing beyond a doubt the absence of double refraction caused by movement of the refracting medium through the ether" (ibid). ALSO INCLUDED IN THIS VOLUME: J. J. Thomson's 'Plum Pudding Model': "The most widely accepted theory of atomic structure up to about 1913" (Peacock, The Quantum Revolution, 34). CONDITION & DETAILS: London: Taylor and Francis. Entire volume. Ex-libris and bearing occasional light stamp within. New end papers. No marks at the spine whatsoever. Octavo (8.5 x 5.5 inches; 213 x 138mm). [viii], 720, [6]. 27 plates. Handsomely rebound in three quarter calf over gilt-ruled maroon paper boards. Four gilt-ruled raised bands at the spine. Gilt devices in the spine compartments. Gilt-lettered red and black spine labels. Tightly and very solidly bound. An occasional spot within, quite minor. Very good condition in every way.
