‎First printing of Hasenöhrl's important paper in which he showed that electromagnetic energy E, enclosed in an empty box with perfectly reflecting walls, behaves, when the box is set in motion, as if it had a mass proportional to E - also often referred to as inertia of a cavity containing radiation. Since J. J. Thomson in 1881, many physicists like Wilhelm Wien (1900), Max Abraham (1902), and Hendrik Lorentz (1904) used equations for the so-called ""electromagnetic mass"", which expresses how much electromagnetic energy contributes to the mass of bodies. And Henri Poincaré (1900) implicitly used the expression m=E/c2 for the mass of electromagnetic energy.""When Hasenöhrl returned to Vienna he wrote the series of papers for which he is best known, on electromagnetic radiation. of these the most important is the prizewinning essay on the effects of radiant energy within a moving cavity.2Using classical theory he showed that the trapped radiation increases the kinetic energy of the motion, the effect being equivalent to an increase in the apparent mass of the cavity.In his formula h?0 is the total radiant energy in the cavity and c is the velocity of light. Like other similar anticipations, this result was displaced by Einstein's more general theorem on the equivalence of mass and energy."" (DSB)‎

‎Bon état pour cet exemplaire de l'édition originale en pleine reliure de l'époque (reliures lég. frottées, coupes frottées, les belles tranches marbrées rose sont restées fraîches). Rédigé à la demande de Napoléon Bonaparte, alors premier Consul, cet important traité reconnu pour sa clarté d'exposition valut à René Just Haüy la Légion d'Honneur. Ordered by Napoleon to write a textbook of physics for the newly instituted lycées, Haüy's Treatise "was outstanding for its clear, methodical, exposition of physics, although mathematical treatment of problems was again lacking [ ... ] His own contribution to physics consisted in his researches on double refraction in crystals, on pyroelectricity in crystals (especially tourmaline and boracite), and on piezoelectricity" (DSB, VI, 178-182)‎

‎(New York), American physical Society, 1965. Lex8vo. In the original printed blue wrappers. In ""Physical Review Letters"", Volume 15, No. 17, November 15, 1965.

‎Rare first appearance of Hawking's first published paper, published a year before his Ph.D. was approved. It signposted the beginning of the area of research in black holes and singularities in general. Shortly after the present paper was published, Hawking followed up with three other seminal papers, in which he applied the Penrose-singularity (that a gravitationally collapsing star will inevitably end in a space-time singularity) to the whole universe. This resulted in his famous conclusion that: ""Yes, a universe governed by the classical (i.e., nonquantum) general theory of relativity must necessarily have started in a space-time singularity"" (Kragh, Cosmology and Controversy).When Hawking began his graduate studies, there was much debate in the physics community about the prevailing theories of the creation of the universe: the Big Bang and Steady State theories. Inspired by Roger Penrose's theorem of a spacetime singularity in the centre of black holes, Hawking applied the same thinking to the entire universe and during 1965, he wrote his thesis and the present paper on this topic. ""Hawking [in the present paper] realized that closed trapped surfaces, in its past version, will be present in any expanding Universe close to be spatially homogeneous and isotropic. This started a series of papers by him, Ellis, Geroch and others on the question of the inevitability of an initial singularity in our past if GR is assumed to hold and some reasonable conditions are met.""
