PLANCK/EINSTEN/Stern—Three Papers. Two Important Papers by Max Planck and a key paper by Albert Einstein and Otto Stern on their Independent Development of "Zero Point Energy". Includes: Max PLANCK, "Eine neue Strahlungshypothese" AND PLANCK, “Über die Begründung des Gesetzes der schwarzen Strahlung” AND ALBERT EINSTEIN and Otto Stern, “Einige Argumente für die Annahme einer molekularen agitation beim absoluten Nullpunkt”. Three papers: PLANCK, Max. "Eine neue Strahlungshypothese" extract from Verhandlungen der Deutschen Physikalischen Gesellschaft, 13, number 3, 15 Feb 1911, 119-148 in the issue, with Planck on pp 138-148. And: PLANCK, “Über die Begründung des Gesetzes der schwarzen Strahlung” also extracted from Verhandlungen der Deutschen Physikalischen Gesellschaft, 14 number 2, 30 January 1912, 43-136 in the issue, with Planck on 113-118. Both papers are bound in cloth-backed linen-covered boards with a paper front board label. The binding is brand new and the text is fresh. Very Fine copy. [++] And: EINSTEIN, ALBERT and O. STERN. "Einige Argumente für die Annahme einer molekularen Agitation beim absoluten Nullpunkt" in Annalen der Physik, Berlin, Barth, 1913, volume 40, fourth series, number 3, pp (393)-698 with the Einstein and Stark on pp 551-560. This is the entire issue 3, in the scarce original wrappers. Weil 53. The famously/infamously fragile wrappers are chipped around the edges and have a significant amount of loss on the spine. GOOD condition. $1500.00 [++] (The term zero-point energy (ZPE) is a translation from the German Nullpunktsenergie.) [++] "(T)he idea of zero-point energy attracted the attention of Albert Einstein and his assistant Otto Stern. In 1913 they published a paper [the paper offered here] that attempted to prove the existence of zero-point energy by calculating the specific heat of hydrogen gas and compared it with the experimental data."--Wikipedia [++] "The notion of a zero-point energy is a result of quantum theory and has no proper counterpart in classical physics. It was introduced by Planck in 1911, more than a decade before the emergence of modern quantum mechanics. Planck’s so-called second quantum theory, on which the zero-point energy was based, was discussed for a brief period of time, but by 1920 at the latest it was abandoned by most physicists. On the other hand, although Planck’s theory was dismissed, the idea of a zero-point energy lived on."  Helge S. Kragh & James M. Overduin,  "Planck’s Second Quantum Theory" (SpringerLinks onine) [++] "Planck did not describe the implications of this finding until later, but Einstein and German physicist Otto Stern (1888–1969) did. In 1913, they suggested for the first time the existence of a residual energy at absolute zero, calling this residual energy “Nullpunktsenergie,” translated as “zero-point energy.” Einstein and Stern published their results in “Einige Argumente für die Annahme einer molekularen Agitation beim absoluten Nullpunkt”.
