‎First appearance of one of the founding papers in ""The mathematical Theory of Elasticity"" and Poisson's first on the subject. ""The theory of elasticity based on the idea of a molecular structure attracted Poisson's interest, and he did much to lay the foundations of that science.""(Timoshenko p. 111 ff.).""In the preface to the long ""Mémoire sur I’équilibre et le movement des corps élastiques"" (14 April 1828), the hints yield to explicit declaration. In applying mathematics to physics, Poisson stated, it was necessary at first to employ abstraction and ""in this regard, Lagrange has gone as far as possible in replacing physical ties by equations between coordinates."" Now, however, ""along with this admirable conception,"" it is necessary to ""construct physical mechanics, the principle of which is to reduce everything to molecular actions."" In other words, the death of Laplace the previous year enabled Poisson to move boldly ahead with his long range plans and to present himself as Laplace’s successor.""(DSB)The issue offered contains notable papers by Berzelius, Gay-Lussac and others.‎

The paper offered introduces THE LAW OF LARGE NUMBERS (Loi universelle des Grandes nombres, pp. 478-79), a key concept in probability theory. Poisson states that all events of a moral as well as of a physical nature are subject to this universal law. His definition (in English translation) on p. 478 reads ""Things of every kind obey a universal law that we may call the law of large numbers. Its essence is that if we observe a very large number of events of the same nature, which depend on constant causes and on causes that vary irregularly, sometimes in another, 1.e., not progressively in any determined sense, then almost constant proportions will be found among numbers"" (p. 478 in the first memoir).‎

‎Extrait de la premiere partie d'un Mémoire sur la Mouvement des projectiles dans l'air, en ayent égard à leur rotation et à l'influence du mouvement diurne de la Terre.‎

‎(Paris, Bachelier), 1837. 4to. No wrappers. In: ""Comptes Rendus Hebdomadaires des Séances de L'Academie des Sciences"", Tome 5, No. 20. Pp. (659-) 710. (Entire issue offerd). Poisson's paper: pp. 660-667.‎

‎First appearance of Poisson's importent work - the first of its kind - on the dynamics of a motion taking into account also of the motion of the reference system. The work in its full ""Sur les mouvement des projectiles dans l'air, en ayent éghard à leur figure, & la rotation et à l'influence du mouvemnet diurne de la terre"" was published two years later in 1839.""Recherches sur le mouvement des projectiles dans l’air (1839), was far better known in its day. It is the first work to deal with the subject by taking into account the rotation of the earth and the complementary acceleration resulting from the motion of the system of reference. A decade after its publication it inspired Foucault’s famous experiment demonstrating the earth’s rotation. Poisson, who had supervised Coriolis’ doctoral research, recognized the importance of his invention of a term to correct for the deviations from the law of motion that arise in a rotating reference system. Unfortunately, Poisson did not consider himself obliged to cite the name of the actual inventor of the term."" (DSB).‎

‎Sur la Chaleur des Gaz et des vapeurs.‎

‎(Paris, Crochard, 1823). 8vo. Without wrappers. In 'Annales de Chimie et de Physique', Series 2 - Volume 23, Cahier 4. With halftitle to vol. 23. Pp. 337-444 (entire issue offered). Poisson's paper: pp. 337-352.‎

‎First appearance of Poisson's importent paper on the mathematical treatment of ""specific heats"".""In ""Sur la chaleur des gaz et des vapeurs,"" published in August 1823 in Annales de chimie et de physique, Poisson developed ideas published four months before by Laplace in Book XII of Mécanique céleste. Poisson introduced all the precautions needed to render the confused notion of quantity of heat susceptible to mathematical analysis. He called quantity of heat the magnitude that characterizes the transition of a given mass of gas from an arbitrary initial state of temperature and pressure to another state. This definition makes more abstract the quantitative aspect that naturally follows from the concept of heat as a caloric fluid. Poisson could thus deal comfortably with this magnitude, since for him it is simply a function q of p, p, and ø (pressure, density, and temperature). The equation of state p= ap(1+aø) was already classic, and the growing acceptance of the notions of specific heats, at constant pressure and constant volume, allowed him to write the simple partial differential equation of which should be the integral. He also showed that independently of any additional hypothesis, and whatever the arbitray function used in the integration, the adiabatic transformations (the term did not yet exist) correspond to the formulas p · py = constant and (?+266.67)·p1y= constant, y being the ratio of the specific heats, assumed constant.""(DSB).‎

‎Théorie mathématique de la Chaleur. (Cet article est le préambule d'un ouvrage actuellement sous presse, et qui paraitra incessamment).‎

‎(Berlin, G. Reimer, 1834). 4to. No wrappers. Extracted from ""Journal für die reine und angewandte Mathematik. Hrsg. von A.L. Crelle"", Bd. XII. Pp. 258-262.‎

‎First apperance of Poisson's preamble to his famous work ""Théorie mathématique de la Chaleur"", published 1835. “Poisson scored a point in this work by demonstrating how the conductibility of heat in the interior of bodies, far from being contained in the notion of flux as Fourier had held, must be derived from an absorption coefficient that restores a neglected functional dimension. It was in this area that … Poisson’s mechanical model for conduction of heat was the most fruitful. That conception enabled Poisson to understand on the molecular scale the complete and correct equation for radiation of heat” (DSB)‎
