soft cover. Condición: very good. first edition. In-4° broché, paginé 393-433 Fist printing of this importent paper in which Fresnel formulates a theory of reflection and refraction referring them to the dynamical properties of the luminiferous media and stating the two laws that bears his name, the "Sine-law" and the "Tangent-law". ---- FRESNEL apporta la preuve que la théorie ondulatoire peut seule expliquer les phénomènes d'interférences lumineuses ---- "FRESNEL succeeded fully in attaining his explicit goal, the establishment of the wave conception of light. Not long after his death scientific opinion definitely shifted in favor of waves and opened up the pathway leading to the deeper insights of Maxwell. In troad context FRESNEL's work can be viewed as the first successful assault on the theory of imponderables and a major influence on the development of nineteenth-century energetics". (DSB V).…

Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. __+__Two Major Works in One Volume (1819)__+__ Augustin Fresnel and François Arago, Mémoire Sur l Action que les rayons de lumière polarisés exercent les uns sur les autres , in Annales de Chimie et de Physique; Paris, by Crochard, 1819, vol 10 pp. 288 305 in the volume of 448. with two folding plates (one relatively large). Beautifully rebound in half-calf and marbled boards, with new endpaper; very usable, quite a lovely job. The only demerit here is an old cellophane tape repair on the title page. Fine copy. __+__ Fresnel's theory was confirmed by French physicist François Arago who later carried out this experiment. Fresnel discovered that light was a transverse wave instead of a longitudinal wave as had previously been thought, and he presented his results in 1817. --Azooptics. (They) describe experiments demonstrating that light vibrates transversely to its direction of forward movement. (in this paper translated as Memoir on the action that the rays of polarized light exert on one another . --Parkson, Breakthroughs, (1819). __+__ Bound with: Pierre Dulong and Alexis Petit, Recherches sur quelques points importants de la Théorie de la Chaleur , same volume, pp. 395 427. Introduction of the Dulong-Petit Law, .a fundamental step in statistical physics. The Dulong-Petit limiting law for the specific heats of solids, one of the first general results in thermodynamics, has provided Mendeleev with a powerful tool for devising the periodic table and gave an important support to Boltzmann s statistical mechanics. Even its failure at low temperature, accounted for by Einstein, paved the way to the the quantum mechanical theory of solids . -- The strange case of Dr. Petit and Mr. Dulong , Roberto Piazza, 2018. They were concerned with the specific heats of elements; but if these elements really existed as atoms, it seemed possible that there might be a connection between the weight of the atom and the amount of heat acquired to raise the temperature of a given weight of that element by a certain amount."--Complete Dictionary of Scientific Biography online. The Dulong Petit law, a thermodynamic law proposed in 1819. states the classical expression for the molar specific heat capacity of certain chemical elements. Experimentally the two scientists had found that the heat capacity per weight (the mass-specific heat capacity) for a number of elements was close to a constant value, after it had been multiplied by a number representing the presumed relative atomic weight of the element. These atomic weights had shortly before been suggested by John Dalton and modified by Jacob Berzelius. --Wikipedia) __+__ Also bound with: Simeon Dennis Poisson, Sur la Theorie des instrumens a vent , pp 129-142 (relating to his Sur le Mouvement des fluides ´elastiques dans les tuyaux cylindriques, et sur la th´eorie des instruments `a vent, M´em. Acad. Roy. Sci. Inst., vol. 2, p. 305, 1819). The propagation of a compressional wave in a three-dimensional fluid medium was first considered by S. D. Poisson in 1819 [23] but it remained, however, for Hermann von Helmholtz to give in 1860 a more thorough treatment of this whole problem. __+__ And with: (William Frederic Edwards), Sur l'Asphyxie , pp 5-29 (being a continuation of two earlier papers from 1817 and 1818).

London, Taylor and Francis, 1852. 8vo. Without wrappers. In: "Scientific Memoirs, selected from Transactions of Foreign Academies of Science. Edited by Richard Taylor.", Vol. V, Part XVIII. With titlepage to Vol. V. Pp. (151-) 352 (entire part offered). Fresnel's paper: pp. 238-333. Clean and fine. Titlepage with a small faint stamp. First appearance in English of Fresnel's famous memoir - the memoir of 1827, his so-called second memoir - in which some of his groundbreaking discoveries concerning light is stated. He applies the concept of transverse waves to double refraction and representing the final construction, in the form of an equation of the fourth degree.In the paper Fresnel also explained the fact,that in some cases of quartz the rotation of polarization is from left to right and in other cases from right to left. He proposed the term 'helical' to denote the property of rotating the plane of polarization, exhibited by such bodies as quartz. The term 'natural rotatory polarisation' is however, generally used.This memoir contains the first printing of three unpublished memoirs from 1821 and 1822 (Mémoire sur la double refraction.Extrait Read 26. Nov., 1821 - Supplement, presented 22 January 1822 - Second Supplement, presented April 1, 1822. - Explication de la réfraction dans le système des Ondes from "Bulletin Soc. Philom.", 1821. See Jed.

Fresnel's papers: pp. 68-89 and pp. 90-125. Clean and fine. First appearance in German of two importent memoirs on polarized light, refraction and reflexion of light.The first paper unites two of his earlier papers on polarization as an introduction to the second paper. Having mastered the wave theory, Fresnel tackled the phenomena of polarization and of double refraction, and he obtained results which amazed the scientific world. These results survived the criticism of his contemporaries and of his succcessors, and are still accepted today.The second paper offered contains the first German edition of the importent paper in which Fresnel formulates a theory of reflection and refraction referring them to the dynamical properties of the luminiferous media and stating the two laws that bears his name, the "Sine-law" and the "Tangent-law".This memoir was for some time considered lost, it was presented to the Academy in 1823, but found later in the papers of Fourier. "Diese Abhandlung ist bereits am 7. Jan. 1823 in der Pariser Academie vorgelesen, nach der Zeit aber abhanden gekommen, und erst kürzlich unter den Papieren des verwigten Fourier wieder aufgefunden"(Editors footnote).In the memoir "He adopts Young's principle, that reflection and refraction are due to differences in the inertia of the aether in different material bodies, and supposes (as in the memoir on aberration) that the inertia is proportional to the inverse square of the velocity of propagation of light in the medium. The conditions which he proposes to satisfy at the interface between two media are that the displacements of the aadjacent molecules, resolved parallell to this interface, shall be equal in the two media" and that the energy of the reflwected and refracted waves together shall be equal to that of the incident wave."(Whittaker "A History of the Theories of Aether and Electricity" I, p.123).…

The volume also having the notable rapports and notes by Arago, Biot, Ampere exhibiting the famous controversy over the subject."This concept of transverse waves met with the greatest hostility from the scientists of the day, who could not imagine an extremely fluid and rarified ether which at the same time possessed the mechanical properties of a rigid body. Even Arago admitted that he could not follow the exuberant engineer in his ideas. But Fresnel was convinced that at last he had the key to many mysteries, and with his model of waves he gave a full clarification of the phenomena of polarization. With insuperable precision he explained a long series of extremely complicated experiments, such as those of chromatic polarization that Arago himself had discovered by chance in 1811, and which the followers of Newton could not explain in spite of all their efforts. Following this line Fresnel reached the synthesis which is his masterpiece.we must recall the final interpretation that he gave of the famous phenomenon of partial reflection by transparent surfaces, that simple phenomenon which until then had puzzled Grimaldi, Newton, and Huygens, and which in Malus's experiments had unexpectedly acquired a special importencee as it had been compared to the great mystery of double refraction."(Ronchi "The Nature of Light", p. 255 ff.). …
