(1884)
Ableitung des Stefan'schen Gesetzes, betreffend die Abhängigkeit der Warmestrahlung von der Temperatur aus der electromagnetischen Lichttheorie.

Pp. 145-304 (entire issue offered ""Heft"" 6). Boltzmann's paper: pp. 291-294. Small stamp to titlepage and verso of.
First appearance of this importent paper in which Boltzmann uses the second law of thermodynamics and Maxwell's electromagnetic theory to derive theoretically, based on Stefan's experimental observations, the proportionality of the radiation emitted from a body and the fourth power of the temperature of the body in Kelvin units. ""The law show a possible connection between thermodynamics and electromagnetism that was exploited in the later quantum theory. In the 1920s it was applied by Edington and others in explaining the equilibrium of stellar atmospheres.""(DSB II, p. 266).""The law states that the total energy radiated per unit surface area of a black body per unit time (known variously as the black-body irradiance, energy flux density, radiant flux, or the emissive power), is directly proportional to the fourth power of the black body's thermodynamic temperature T (also called absolute temperature).The Stefan Boltzmann law was experimentally discovered in the year 1879 by Josef Stefan and deduced 1884 by Ludwig Boltzmann theoretically by thermodynamic considerations from the classical electromagnetic theory of the radiation. In the year 1900, thus 21 years after the Stefan Boltzmann law, discovered Max Planck the Planck radiation law designated after it, from which the Stefan Boltzmann law follows simply by integration over all directions and wavelengths. The Planck radiation law could attribute the Stefan Boltzmann constant also for the first time with the introduction of the quantum of action h to fundamental natural constants.""Parkinson ""Breakthroughs"" 1883 P.

Il est considéré comme le père de la physique statistique et un fervent défenseur de l'existence des atomes. Validant l'hypothèse de Démocrite selon laquelle « la matière peut être considérée comme un ensemble d'entités indivisibles », Boltzmann, à l'aide de son équation cinétique dite « de Boltzmann », a théorisé de nombreuses équations de mécanique des fluides. Les conceptions atomistiques à la base des recherches de Boltzmann lui ont valu une vigoureuse hostilité de la part de ses confrères. Faute de développements nouveaux, ses résultats entraînèrent un certain discrédit sur ses travaux théoriques, jusqu'à ce que ceux-ci soient remis à l'honneur par les découvertes de Max Planck dans l'analyse du rayonnement du corps noir, puis celles d'Albert Einstein avec l'effet photoélectrique.

Leçons sur la théorie des gaz traduites par A. Galloti avec une introduction et des notes de M. Brillouin ---- PREMIERE EDITION FRANCAISE -- 2 TOMES reliés en un volume
P., Gauthier-Villars, 1902/1905, 2 tomes reliés en un volume in 8, demi-toile verte (reliure de l'époque, T.1 : 19pp., 204pp., T.2 : 12pp., 280pp.
---- PREMIERE EDITION FRANCAISE ---- "Boltzmann, (1844/1906), est le principal créateur de la théorie cinétique des gaz qui, avec lui et après lui, devait s'élargir en une mécanique statistique. S'appuyant sur les travaux de Clausius et sur ceux de Maxwell, il aboutit notamment, en 1872, à la définition d'une fonction, H, caractéristique de l'état d'un gaz enfermé dans un récipient, fonction qui ne peut que décroître, s'apparentant par là à l'entropie, au signe près. Mais l'apport le plus notable de Boltzmann réside dans l'introduction du concept de probabilité des états macroscopiques d'un gaz, qu'il mesure par le nombre des "complexions" microscopiques de ce gaz correspondant à chaque état. Cela le conduit en 1876 à une expression de l'entropie d'un gaz, dite formule de Boltzmann, équivalente, à une constante près, au logarithme de la probabilité de l'état du gaz et, plus généralement, d'un système. Cette constante, qui porte son nom, est l'une des constantes fondamentales de la physique et intervient dans les formulations statistiques de la physique tant classique que quantique" ---- "In his first volume of his Vorlesungen über gastheorie, Boltzmann presented a vigorous argument for the kinetic theory. In the foreword to the second volume of this book, he seemed rather more conscious of his failure to convert other scientists to acceptance of the kinetic theory". (DSB II pp. 260/268)**656/M2

First apperance of an importent paper in which Boltzmann from a mathematical point of view defends atomism. ""Throughout his career, even in his works on subjects other than kinetic theory Boltzmann was concerned with the mathematical problems arising from the atomic nature of matter. Thus, an early paper with the title ""Über die Integrale linearer Differentialgleichungen mit periodischcn Koeffizienten"" (1868) turned out to be an investigation of the validity of Cauchy’s theorem on this subject, which is needed to justify the application of the equations for an elastic continuum to a crystalline solid in which the local properties vary periodically from one atom to the next."" (DSB). The issue contains an importent paper by JOHANN JOSEPH LOSCHMIDT ""Ableitung des Potentiales bewegter elektrischer Massen aus dem Potentiale für die Ruhestand"", pp. 7-14, in which he attempted to derive the Weber-Ampère law from that of Coulomb, and, in accordance with Kirchhoff, to derive Ohm’s law from hydrodynamic flow laws, analogous to Poiseuille’s law.

First printing of Boltzmann's paper in which he argues that he was the first, (and four years before Clausius) to infer the Second Law of Thermodynamics from analytical mechanics. He discusses his paper from 1866 ""Über die mechanische Bedeutung des Zweiten Hauptsatzes der Wärmetheorie"" and compares it with Clausius paper from 1870 ""Zurüchführung d. zweiten Hauptsatzes d. mechanichen Wärmetheorie auf allgemeine mechaniche Principien"".

First edition of one of Boltzmann's main works. ""In the 1890’s Boltzmann again revived his interest in electromagnetic theory, perhaps as a result of Hertz’s experiments, which he repeated before a large audience in Graz. He published his Vorlesungen über Maxwells Theorie in 1891 and 1893, along with some papers in which he suggested new mechanical models to illustrate the field equations."" (DSB).Walter Mackower, a research student under Thomson effected his transformation into a physicist, and his M.A. was for a thesis on the diffusion properties of radium emanation (radon). He later worked with Rutherford, Geiger, Rush and Fajans and he did pioneering research on radioactive substances and radioactive recoil.Aage Bohr, son of Niels Bohr, was awarded the Nobel Price in physics jointly with Mottelson and Rainwater in 1975 ""for the discovery of the connection between collective motion and particle motion in atomic nuclei and the development of the theory of the structure of the atomic nucleus based on this connection"".
