‎On the Secular Changes in the Elements of the Orbit of a Satellite revolving about a Tidally distorted Planet. Received December 8, - Read December 18, 1879.‎

‎(London, Harrison and Sons, 1880). 4to. No wrappers as extracted from ""Philosophical Transactions"", Vol. 171 - Part II. Pp. 713-891. A few textilustr. Clean and fine.‎

‎First printing of a main work by the ""Father of Geophysics"", in which he set up the hypothesis, that the results from his earlier investigations on the relations between the tidal frictions on the earth and the motion of the moon away from the earth, could be used to explain the formation of satellites of the other planets and their movements in relation to the sun.. (In DSB it is called ""a monumental paper"").""Darwin's most significant contribution to the history of science lies in his pioneering work in the application of detailled dynamical analysis to cosmological and geological problems. That many of his conclusions are now out of date should in no way diminish the historical interest in his experiments, nor the importent service thet he rendered cosmogony by the example he gave of putting various hypotheses to the test of actual calculations. Darwin's method remains a milestone in the development of cosmogony, and subsequent investigators have favored it over the merely qualitative arguments prevalent until that time.""(DSB).‎

‎Problems connected with the Tides of a Viscous Spheroid. Received November 14, - Read December 19, 1878.‎

‎(London, Harrison and Sons, 1880). 4to. No wrappers as extracted from ""Philosophical Transactions"" 1879, Vol. 171 - Part II. Pp. 539-593.‎

‎First printing of a main paper by the ""Father of Geophysics"" in which he shows that the effect of the tides was to force a retreat of the moon from the earth - thus going backward in time in the history of the earth, he concludes that the earth had been in contact with the moon, and this represents the time at which the whirling earth threw off a portion of its outer crust by centrifugal action, loosing angular motion in that way.""Darwin's most significant contribution to the history of science lies in his pioneering work in the application of detailled dynamical analysis to cosmological and geological problems. That many of his conclusions are now out of date should in no way diminish the historical interest in his experiments, nor the importent service thet he rendered cosmogony by the example he gave of putting various hypotheses to the test of actual calculations. Darwin's method remains a milestone in the development of cosmogony, and subsequent investigators have favored it over the merely qualitative arguments prevalent until that time.""(DSB).‎

He was seriously injured in the eye by an explosion.""(Partington IV, p. 57-58).This explosion induced Davy to hire Faraday as a co-worker.Together with J.F.W.HERSCHEL ""On a remarkable Application of Cote's Theorem.

‎First appearance of two importent papers by davy. In the second paper offered, he relates his discovery of chlorine dioxyd.""By explosion over mercury he found that 2 vols. give from 2.7 to 2.9 of gas, and this would probably be 3 vols. if no chlorine had been absorbed by the mercury. This gas contains 2 vols. of oxygen and the remainder chlorine, hence the compound consists of 'two in volume of oxygen and one of chlorine, condensed into the space of two volumes' (ClO2). He found it to explode at about 100 deg. with more viollence than euchlorine.""(Partington III, p. 57).Together with ROBERT PORRETT ""Further analytical experiments relative to the constitution of the prussic" of the ferruretted chyazic, and of the sulphuretted chyazic acids and of their salts" together with the application of the atomic theory to the analysis of these bodies."", pp. 220-230 a. 2 tables, one folding.‎

‎First description and the first announcement of the invention of the Mine Safety Lamp, the so-called ""Davy-Lamp"" together with his further remarks on the functioning of this lamp. The papers are miliestones of applied chemistry.""In 1815 he (Davy) invented the Davy lamp, in which an open flame is surrounded by a cylinder of metallic gauze. Oxygen can get through the gauze and feed the flame. The heat of the flame, however, is dissipated by the metal and explosive gases outside the lamp and not ignited. For the first time, miners were reasonably safe from explosion. In 1818 Davy was made a Baronet for his service to industry.""
