First edition of Laue's importent paper in which he gives an experimental proof of the non-addition and non-subtraction phenomena in respect of the velocity of light. - Laue was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1914.""Einstein’s special theory of relativity dispensed with the addition or subtraction of the velocities, hitherto assumed to be self-evident, and applied instead a special ""addition theorem."" In 1907 Laue demonstrated that this theorem readily yields Fizeau’s formula with the previously enigmatic Fresnel drag coefficient: u = c/n ± v(1 - 1/n2). Laue thereby furnished Einstein’s theory with an important experimental proof, which, along with the Michelson-Morley experiment and arguments from group theory, contributed to early acceptance of the theory. Having thus proved himself an expert in relativity theory, in 1910 Laue wrote the first monograph on the subject. He expanded it in 1919 with a second volume on the general theory of relativity"" the work went through several editions.""(DSB).

---- Deuxième édition AUGMENTEE ---- Von Laue fut professeur à Munich, à Francfort sur le Main et enfin à Berlin ou il devient directeur de l'Institut de physique théorique. On lui doit diverses publications sur le principe de relativité et la découverte de la diffraction des rayons X par les cristaux. Ces expériences démontrèrent le caractère ondulatoire des rayons X et permirent de déterminer la structure des milieux cristallisés... En 1931, il donna une nouvelle forme de la théorie dynamique de la diffraction des rayons X par les cristaux**6611/M2

First appearance of the account of Lebedev's seminal experiment proving that light exerts a mechanical pressure on material bodies thereby confirming Maxwell's electromagnetic theory for the very first time - a landmark discovery in modern physics. James Clerk Maxwell ""made an important new prediction from his electromagnetic theory-that electromagnetic waves exert a radiation pressure. Bright sunlight, he calculated, presses on the earth's surface with a force of around 4 pounds per square mile [...] This was too tiny a value to be observable in everyday life and its detection posed a challenge to experimenters. Eventually, in 1900, the Russian physicist Pyotr Lebedev succeeded, and confirmed James' prediction. Although small on an earthly scale, radiation pressure is one of the factors that shape the universe. Without it there would be no stars like our sun. [The] discovery also helped to explain a phenomenon that had puzzled astronomers for centuries-why comets' tails point away from the sun"" (Mahan, The Man who Changed Everything: The Life of James Clerk Maxwell, 183).""As early as 1891 Lebedev became seriously interested in the pressure of light. He turned his attention to the fact that since the force of gravity is proportional to the volume of a body whereas light pressure must be proportional to its surface, it may be asserted that in a particle of cosmic dust the forces of light pressure pushing the particle away from the sun will be equals to the force of gravity attracting it toward the sun. Lebedev used this theory to explain why comets'tails always point away from the sun. His hypothesis was considered correct until the discovery of the solar wind, which creates substantially greater pressure than the sun's light.Around 1898, Lebedev began experimental research on light pressure. Although its presence had been predicted by Maxwell's theory, it had not been detected experimentally before Lebedev. He first undertook research on the pressure of light on solid bodies. Because of the weakness of the effect itself and the considerable number of possible side effects, this experimental problem presented very great difficulties: if a body that is supposed to react to light pressure is placed in a gas, the warming of the body by the light will inevitably cause convection currents and thus set the body in motion. If the body is placed in a vacuum (in practice, in gas at very low pressure), the so called radiometric effect will occur. As a result of the uneven warming of the front and back of the body, the molecules of gas hitting the body from the front will be repulsed more forcefully than those striking the back, thereby exerting greater pressure. By extremely ingenious methods Lebedev succeeded in completely eliminating these side effects and not only detected the pressure of light but also measured it and showed the correctness of Maxwell's quantitative theory. ""Opytnoe issledovanie svetovogo davlenia""(""An Experimental Investigation of the Pressure of Light"") was read by Lebedev at the International Congress of Physicists at Paris in 1899 and was published in 1901.""

First printing of a famous paper in astrophysics. Lebedew argues, ""that if a small-enough particle is placed near the sun, the attractive force of the sun's gravitation could be more than compensated for by the repulsive force from the light rays."" (Partington ""Breakthroughs"", 1892 A).""As early as 1891 Lebedev became seriously interested in the pressure of light.
