‎First edition. In the early years of quantum mechanics several distinct formulations were developed Heisenberg's matrix mechanics, Schrödinger's wave mechanics, and Dirac's more general transformation theory. However these theories lacked strict mathematical rigor (only much later through Schwartz's theory of distributions did Dirac's theory achieve this). Quantum mechanics is one of the fields of science which was fortunate to attract the attention of a mathematician of von Neumann's character. Von Neumann showed, in a paper published 1927, how generalized infinite-dimensional Euclidean spaces (function spaces) and linear operators provide the proper mathematical framework for quantum mechanics. Von Neumann was strongly influenced by Hilbert's program of axiomatizing the fields of science. The axiomatic approach which von Neumann takes in his theory has ever since dominated modern physics and functional analysis, and it was von Neumann who coined the term 'Hilbert space'. Von Neumann's work in this field culminated in this monograph which in addition to the earlier paper includes his important considerations, inspired by Bohr and Heisenberg, regarding the problem of measurement, in particular von Neumann's disproof of hidden variables.‎

‎First appearance of this important paper which explains certain aspects of atomic spectra in terms of the quantum mechanics of electron spinIn 1928 and 1929, shortly after von Neumann had begun publishing his landmark papers on the axiomatization of quantum mechanics, he and his friend Wigner (Nobel Laureate in physics, 1963) issued a series of papers on the spectra of v arious atoms, clarifying the data and putting it into rigorous mathematical form. ""Sixty y ears later, in 1989, Hans Bethe was still calling these among the most remarkable of Johnny [v on Neumann's] works"" (Macrae, John von Neumann, p. 146). ‎

‎Scarce second Latin edition of Newton's ""Optics: or a Treatise of the Reflections, Refractions, Inflections, and Colours of Light. London 1704."", one of the great books in the history of science. ""Newton's Optics did for Light what his Principia had done for Gravitation, namely, placed it on a scientific basis."" (E.W. Brown). The translation was brought to light ""At the request of Newton, Dr. Samuel Clarke prepared a Latin edition of his Optics which appeared 1706, and he was generously presented by Sir Isaac with GBP 500, or GBP 100 for each of his five children, as a token of the appreciation and gratitude of the author. DeMoivre is said to have secured and taken charge of this translation, and to have spared neither time nor trouble in the task. Newton met him every evening at a coffe-house, and when they have finished their work he took De Moivre home with him to spend the evening in philosophical conversation.""(Brewster in his ""Newton"", 1855"").""In the accumulation of optical phenomena from his first paper (the short memoir in Philosophical Transaction, 1672) until the above book (the Optics,..) 33 years later, Newton had gathered explanations to many problems. The rainbow is fully explained and also ""Newton's rings"", produced by pressing the flat side of a plano-convex glass against a double convex lens of long focal lenght, producing rings of alternating brightness and darkness"" his explanation was not valid, as he did not know optical interference. He speculated on the double refraction of Icelandic spar...."" (Dibner in Heralds of Science No 148) - G.J. Gray No 180.‎

‎First German edition of Nicholson's famous paper in which he, together with his friend Anthony Carlisle, succeeded in breaking up molecules into the constituent atoms of hydrogen and oxygen. They thus established the usefulness of the converse of the voltaic cell, by using electricity to produce chemical actions.""On March 20 of that year (1820) Volta wrote to Banks, president ofthe Royal Society, informing him of his construction of an electric battery. Nicholson heard of this and with the aid of a friend built his own Voltaic pile by May 2. It was the first in England. Nicholson's great contribution was to place wires attached to the two ends of the pile in water. He found that with the current flowing, bubbles of gaz (hydrogen and oxygen) ere given off. He had ""electolyzed"" water, breaking up the molecules into the individual elements. He thus reversed the demonstration of Cavendish, that hydrogen and oxygen could unite to form water. This was the first demonstration that an electric current could bring about a chemical reaction - the reverse of olta's demonstration that a chemical action could bring about an electrical current.""(Asimov).

‎First apperance of the first paper relating to his discovery of INVISIBLE ""CHEMICAL"" RAYS, and which, 30 years later, by Henry Becquerel was ""re-discovered"" as radioactivity (1896).The results of these investigations lead to these statement: Some compounds exposed to light exhibit in the dark the same effect as that produced by the direct action of light. - Cardboards impregnated with both uranium nitrate and tartaric acid are ""active"" - The ""activity"" remaining on the exposed cardboard is revealed by its action on a photographic plate - The effect is not due to phosphorescence - The activity is attributed to invisible ""chemical"" rays.It is amazing how closely these experiments resembled those performed by Henri Becquerel 30 years later.""When the work of Abel Niepce de Saint-Victor was brought to light, many persons thought that henri had been aware of these publications prior to his research on uranium. Severel facts seems to support this belief. Henri's father, Alexandre Edmond, had reported several details from Abel Niepce in a book entitled ""Light: its causes and effects"", published 1869. When Henri Carrington Bolton (1843-1903) reviewed in 1869 the work of Abel Niepce, he mentioned a ""remarkable property of uranium nitrate to absorb the actinic rays of light, retaining them in an active condition for a long time"". In 1866 and 1869, J. Jamin, Henri's first stepfather, lectured at the Ecole Polytechnique on the Niepce effects.""(Michel Genet ""The Discovery of Uranic Rays: A short Step for Henri Becquerel but a Giant Step for Science"" in Radiochimica Acta /0/71 1995).‎
