‎First appearance of this classic paper on the physiology of the muscles. - ""Classical description of the striated muscle"" (Garrison & Morton No. 542).Striated muscle fine structure began to be really understood following a comprehensive survey of the matter carried out by William Bowman in the late 1830s. The publications resulting from such a study, the first of which earned for the author a precocious election as Fellow of the Royal Society.""Bowman succeeded in establishing the true architecture of striated muscle fibres to the extent possible with the most advanced technology available in his day - explaining and eradicating alternative erroneous concepts in the process - but also in correctly describing the basic microstructural changes associated with contraction. In addition, although unrecognized by him or others at the time, his experiments with muscle provided direct evidence for the existence of a selectively permeable cell membrane - in the present meaning of the word - over half a century before its officially accepted discovery. Yet, in spite of these remarkable advances, Bowman arrived at the conclusion that the structure of striated muscle fibres is essentially irrelevant for the mechanism of contraction.""(Eugenio Frixione).‎

‎First printing of the paper in which Bragg discloses the corpuscular nature of Gamma- and X-Rays.""Considering gamma and X rays to be of the same nature, he declared the evidence in favor of the ether pulse theory to be ""overrated,"" and emphasized that theory was unable to account for the large quantity of energy and momentum that remained in the ray regardless of the distance from its source, and that could all be delivered to a single electron. During the following five years Bragg backed off somewhat from this concrete model of the gamma ray, emphasizing its ""corpuscular"" rather than its ""material"" nature. but did not abandon the general concept of an electron-with-its-charge-neutralized until after the discovery of X-ray diffraction in 1912. Thus, initially without being aware of the views of Einstein and Stark, Bragg became the first, and remained the foremost, English-language advocate of a view of X rays that stressed their ""quantal"" properties.

‎Questioning the World. Greek Patristic and Byzantine Question-and-Answer Literature‎

‎, Brepols, 2021 Hardback, 472 pages, Size:156 x 234 mm, Illustrations:6 tables b/w., Language(s):English, French, Greek. ISBN 9782503590752.‎

‎Summary This volume discusses cosmological issues in Greek Patristic and Byzantine question-and-answer literature. By adopting this focus, it yields novel insights into both the (theological / philosophical) content and the (literary) form of the texts under scrutiny. How did Greek Patristic and Byzantine authors understand the cosmos of which they were a part and the world in which they lived? And what literary forms did they use to express their questions and answers on these issues? This collection of studies shows that, in order to bring out the important intellectual contribution of the authors under discussion, both 'cosmology' and 'question-and-answer literature' should be defined more broadly than expected. Several papers deal with the crucial corpora by Pseudo-Justin and Maximus the Confessor. Other authors under discussion include Philoponus, Pseudo-Caesarius, Michael Psellus, Severian of Gabala, and Nilus Doxopatres. Attention also goes to the critical edition of question-and-answer literature, as well as to the Greek Patristic and Byzantine reception of cosmological questions and answers from Antiquity (i.c. Aristotle, Philo of Alexandria, Plutarch, and Iamblichus).

It became the basis for radio reception around 1900, and remained in widespread use for about ten years. ‎

This information was important in electrical research and in measuring another property of substances, the electrical conductivity, but Braun’s discovery did not have immediate practical application. In the early twentieth century the principle that Braun had discovered was employed in crystal radio receivers.""(DSB).The Nobel Prize in Physics 1909 was awarded jointly to Guglielmo Marconi and Karl Ferdinand Braun ""in recognition of their contributions to the development of wireless telegraphy"".‎

‎First printing of this groundbreaking paper being the first description of the principles governing the ""BRAUN TUBE"", which moves the elctron beams of alternating voltage, the principle on which ALL TELEVISON TUBES operate. - Braun shared the Nobel Prize for 1909 with Marconi ""in recognition of their contributions to the development of wireless telegraphy"".""Cold cathode tube with side anode, annular diaphragm to control spot size, and built-in fluorescent screen. Beam deflection by one external coil with the trace viewed indirectly in a rotating mirror, or by two coils at right angles for direct viewing. Excitation by hand-drive influence machine (friction generator) or by an induction coil. This ""indicator tube"", which enabled Braun to demonstrate how a variety of periodic and transient electrical phenomena could be visually examined, is the ancestor of electric oscilloscopes, televison picture tubes, and other electron-beam display devices.""( Shiers & Shiers ""Early Televison. A Bibliography to 1940"", No. 263).""The first oscilloscope, or Braun tube, was introduced in 1897. In order to study high-frequency alternating currents Braun used the alternating voltageto move the electron beam within the cathode tube. The trace on the face of the cathode tube represented the amplitude and frequency of the alternating-current voltage. He then produced a graph of this trace by use of a rotating mirror. The Braun tube was a valuable laboratory instrument, and modifications of it are a basic devise in electronic testing and research. The principle of the Braun tube, moving a electron beam by means of alternating voltage, is the principle on which all televison operate.""(DSB II, pp. 427-428).In 1909 he shared the Nobel Prize for physics with Guglielmo Marconi for their development of wireless telegraphy.‎

‎In the early modern springtime of regular news production and consumption, what was the news? Where did it come from? Where did it go? Years of News surveys the world of early modern news, in script and print, in a variety of languages, from a unique vantage point: namely, the news productivity across Europe in a series of carefully chosen years. Contributors, applying a wide variety of innovative approaches and methodologies to original material from archives and libraries far and wide, have explored the stories and the tellers, the networks and the vectors, the effects and reactions. Diving deeply into the data without losing sight of the wider perspective, they seek to illustrate the relation between event and narration, and between narration and impact, while conveying the flavor of the times as experienced by the actors through the medium of news.
