First appearance of Schrödinger's famous treatment of the Compton effect.""Schrödinger approached the wave mechanical treatment of the Compton effect in his own paper [the present] on a far less technical level [than Gordon]. He practically went back to the optical analogies that had stimulated the whole development in November 1925, and in which the properties of microscopic particles were described by matter waves and their propagation in homogeneous media. From such consideration, he now - a year later - drew the following conclusion: ""It is to be expected, nay, even demanded, that we should be able, by means of quite simple phase considerations…, to explain the connection between the changes in direction and frequency of the ether wave which occur in the Compton effect and the change of velocity of the electron."" (Mehra, The Historical Development of Quantum Theory)""Compton was able to account for this (lenghtening of wavelenght) by presuming that a photon of light struch an electron, which recoiled, subtracting some energy from the photon and therefore increasing its wavelenght. This made it seem that a photon acted as a particle: thus after more than a century, the particulate natuer of light, as evolved by Newton, was revived... What itamounted to was that Compton brought to fruition the view that electromagnetic radiation had both a wave aspect and a particle aspect, and that the aspect which was most evident depended on how the radiation was tested. De Broglie was, at the same time, showing that this held true also for ordinary particles, such as electrons."" (Asimov)

Scarce enlarged edittion of Schubert's anti-materialistic treatise. He was influenced by the Nature philosophy of Schelling and reacted strongly against a purely materialistic approach to the sciences. He expressed this in his early work, Ansichten von der Nachtseite der Naturwissenschaften (1808). Schubert, Gotthilf Heinrich von (Hohenstein, Saxony, 1780-1860, Laufzorn, Bavaria), abandoned the study of theology at Leipzig University and turned to medicine and the natural sciences, moving later to Jena. In 1819 was appointed to the chair of natural sciences at Erlangen University. In 1827 he moved to Munich University, becoming a member of the Munich Academy. He was ennobled in 1853.

First edition of Schwerd's seminal paper on the diffraction from the fundamental laws of wave theory.F. M. Schwerd, a pioneer of the early Fraunhofer diffraction, studied the intensity diffraction pattern of a circular aperture, also known as Airy disc.Schwerd's theory presented in the present paper was highly influential. Max Von Laue, who won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1914 for his discovery of the diffraction of X-rays by crystals, wrote in his autobiography: ""Only shortly before this, when writing an article for Enzyklopaedie der mathematischen Wissenschaften, I had given the old theory of diffraction by an optical grating, which went back to Schwerd (1835), a new formulation in order that by applying the equation of the theory twice over, the theory of diffraction by a cross-grating could be obtained. I had only to write out this equation three times, corresponding to the three periodicities of a space lattice, so as to obtain the interpretation of the new discovery"". (Max von Laue).Even though Schwerd published many articles and teaching books for high school, non can be measured in importance with the present work. Since Fresnel had reduced the interference of transverse vibrations in the first quarter of the 19. century, nothing of importance was published until Schwerd theoretically described the colour phenomenon when light is being deflected by obstacles from their straight path and brought to mutual interference. ""Schwerd, though not well known to modern students, has had a great influence on optics through his monumental book on diffraction ... Die Beugungserscheinungen which he wrote in two years' spare time, is the classic comprehensive treatise on Fraunhofer diffraction ... Fraunhofer gave the laws which follow from his experiments but neither he nor J. F. W. Herschel developed the theory. This was done first by Schwerd and was viewed as a great triumph for wave theory over the emission theory of light. (Hoover, Richard B. and Franklin S. Harris, Jr..

Schwerd's Monumental Work on Fraunhofer Diffraction, Applied Optics, Vol. 8, Issue 11, pp. 2161-2164 (1969)).Honeyman: No. 2830, 2831 - Poggendorff, II, p. 878.
