First printing of Chadwick's landmark paper in which he announced the discovery of the neutron. The discovery awarded him the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1935. The discovery of the neutron was of seminal importance to the evolution of Particle Physics.James Chadwick performed a series of experiments at the University of Cambridge, showing that the gamma ray hypothesis was untenable. He suggested that the new radiation consisted of uncharged particles of approximately the mass of the proton, and he performed a series of experiments verifying his suggestion. These uncharged particles were called neutrons.""The discovery of the neutron completely revolutionized the physics of the atomic nucleus, both experimentally and theoretically. Since they are not electrically repelled they provide an ideal probe to study the nucleus"". (Brandt, The Harvest of a Century).

First printing of Chamberlain, Segré, Wiegand and Ypsilantis landmark paper in which they first presented their discovery of antiprotons. Chambelain was together with Segré in 1959 awarded the Nobel prize in physics ""for their discovery of the antiproton"".The detection of the antiproton was first achieved in the fall of 1955 by the Berkeley physicists Owen Chamberlain [et al]. Their scintillators and Cerenkov counters showed about 60 antiproton condidates, but the ultimate proof of the particle, its annihilation with an ordinary proton, was not immediatedly confirmed. (Kragh, Quantum Generations). Since 1955, the antiparticles of many other subatomic particles have been created in particle accelerator experiments. In recent years, complete atoms ofantimatter have been assembled out of antiprotons and positrons, collected in electromagnetic traps.

Scarce offprint issue, from the library of the influential English physicist and astronomer James Hopwood Jeans, of Chandrasekhar's important paper in which he developed his statistical theory of stellar encounters. In the 1983 he was awarded the Nobel Prize in physic for key discoveries that led to the currently accepted theory on the later evolutionary stages of massive stars.Chandresekhar is famous for showing that the final fate of a star depends on its mass, furthermore he calculated that massive stars would be unable to evolve into white dwarfs, the limiting size called the Chandresekhar Limit.""An important question from the point of view of what can be observed is how the cumulative effect of chance encounters affects the orbit of a star measured by what is called ""time of relaxation"" of the stellar system. Conventional wisdom assumed it could be theoretically calculated by considering the cumulative effect of a large number of two-body encounters. A closer analysis convinced Chandrasekhar that such an idealization did not provide a good approximation to the physical situation in the stellar system. The gravitational field fluctuated in space and time. New methods of treating the problem based on statistics were required. He laid the foundations of such new methods in one of his most celebrated and widely quoted papers, ""Stochastic and Statistical Problems in Astronomy,"" published in 1943. The probability methods reviewed in this paper have found application beyond astronomy in a wide variety of problems and fields as different as colloidal chemistry and stellar dynamics."" (DSB) James Hopwood Jeans (1877 -1946) made several important contributions in many areas of physics, including quantum theory, the theory of radiation and stellar evolution. His analysis of rotating bodies led him to conclude that Laplace's theory that the solar system formed from a single cloud of gas was incorrect, proposing instead that the planets condensed from material drawn out of the sun by a hypothetical catastrophic near-collision with a passing star. This theory is not accepted today. Furthermore he is the founder of British cosmology.

---- EDITION ORIGINALE ---- RARE ---- "This Russian mathematician and physicist graduated from the University of Moscow, later teaching mathematics there on the recommendation of Zukovsky. Interested in classical mechanics, especially the mechanics of liquids and gases, Chaplygin continued the work of St. Venant on jet streams and contributed to aerodynamics through his studies of wing cross section. Chaplygin's works also enriched mathematics : his studies of methods of approximation for solving differential equations are achievements of mathematical thought".

---- EDITIOIN ORIGINALE DE LA THESE DE CHAPLYGIN - TRES RARE ---- "In 1902 Chaplygin published his famous paper O gazovykh struyakh ( On gas streams ) in which he developed a method permitting the solution, in many cases, of the problem of the noncontinuous flow of a compressible gas. With this paper he opened the field of high-velocity aeromechanics. The method devised by Chaplygin made it possible to solve the problem of the flow of a gas stream if, under the limiting conditions, the solution to the corresponding problem of an incompressible liquid is known. The equations derived by Chaplygin for the motion of a compressible fluid are valid for the case in which the velocity of the current never exceeds the speed of sound. He applied this theory to the solution of two problems concerning the stream flow of a compressible fluid : escape from a vessel and flow around a plate that is perpendicular to the direction of flow at infinity... O gazovykh struyakh was Chaplygin's doctoral dissertation. At the time it did not receive wide recognition... The significance of this paper for solving problems in aviation came to light at the beginning of the 1930's, when it became necessary to create a new science about the motion of bodies at velocities equal to and greater than the speed of sound, and for the flow patterns past them. The basis of this new science, gas dynamics, had been laid down by Chaplygin, who thus was more than thirty years ahead of the necessary technology...".
