‎First edition of Schrödinger's dissertation, his first printed work, ""On the Conduction of Electricity on the Surface of Insulators in Moist Air.""In 1907, Schrödinger began attending lectures in theoretical physics at the University of Vienna. This was Schrödinger's third semester, but theoretical physics had been closed down at the university for two years after of Boltzmann's death. Haselörhl became the new professor and Schrödinger appreciated his lectures on theoretical physics so much that he attended them five days a week for eight semesters in a row. In 1910 Schrödinger received the doctorate under Haselöhrl for the present work.At the time when Schrödinger worked on the present treatise, electrical insulation in instruments for the measurement of radioactivity and ionization played an important role in experimental physics. Almost all of the work was done in the department of Franz Exner and the experiments were carried out in the small laboratory that he shared with Jakob Salpeter. The work is centered around a set of electrical measurements that are designed to show the effects of moist air on the conductivity of solid insulators such as amber, glass, sulfur, ebonite etc. The work is considered as showing Schrödinger's excellent experimental abilities, but he is criticized with lacking theoretical content. He also neglected to carry out a control experiment to prove his assumption that the effects of the moist air on the conductivity of the insulators was restricted to the surface, and he didn't mention the temperature at which his measurements were made. However, his practical work with these insulating solids did prove to be of great importance" they were the basis of his important survey of dielectricity that he completed in 1814. The work was presented at a meeting of the Vienna Academy of Sciences on June 30th, 1910, and this was the first time that Schrödinger delivered a report on his own research work to fellow scientists. The dissertation was published a few weeks later in the proceedings of the Academy, and this was Schrödinger's first publication.The Austrian physicist Erwin Rudolf Josef Alexander Schrödinger (1887 -1961) is widely renowned for his contributions to quantum mechanics, especially the Schrödinger equation, for which he received the Nobel Prize in 1933.‎

‎First printing of these importent papers on the philosophy of Quantum physics. ""If we have to go on with these damned quantum jumps, then I'm sorry that I ever got involved."" (E.Schrodinger).""In it he contrasts the smooth evolution of the Schrodinger wavefunction with the erratic behaviour of the picture by which the wavefunction is usually supplemented, or 'interpreted', in the minds of most physicists. He objects in particular to the notion of 'stationary states', and above all to 'quantum jumping' between those states. He regards these concepts as hangovers from the old Bohr quantum theory, of 1913, and entirely unmotivated by anything in the mathematics of the new theory of 1926. (J.S. Bell).‎

‎First edition and first announcement of Schrödinger's famous reply to the EPR-paradox (also known as Schrödinger's Cat). When in May 1935 Einstein, Podolsky and Rosen published the so-called EPR-paper in ""Physical Review"", they set out to demonstrate that the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics could not constitute a complete description of nature. The EPR-article prompted a number of responses, e.g. from Bohr, the co-founder of the Copenhagen School, who began writing his response immediately after the publication of the Physical Review article. It is this debate that Schrödinger participates in with his seminal paper on ""The Present Situation in Quantum Mechanics"", in which he presents what is now famously known as Schrödinger's Cat. Schrödinger's Cat is the name of the thought experiment that Schrödinger develops in this article and that was intended as a discussion of the EPR article.After the publication of the EPR article, Einstein and Schrödinger had begun an exchange of letters on the subject of the possibility of quantum mechanics, as interpreted by the Copenhagenists, representing reality. During this exchange of letters, Schrödinger had been inspired by Einstein's view of the problem of applying the Copenhagen interpretation of Quantum mechanics to everyday objects. But Schrödinger, in his response, took his illustration of the absurdity of the interpretation and the incompleteness of quantum mechanics a step further" he applied it to a living entity, namely a cat. Schrödinger imagines a sealed box containing a cat, a bottle of poison, a radioactive source, a Geiger counter and a hammer. When the Geiger counter detects radiation, a mechanism is switched on that makes the hammer fall the hammer breaks the bottle, and the poison kills the cat. Because it is random, when the Geiger counter will detect radiation, and because in Quantum mechanics, physical conditions are described with the aid of a wave-function that explains all possible conditions of the system, Quantum mechanics, according to the Copenhagen interpretation, would come to the conclusion that the cat in the box is both living and dead, at the same time (the wave function is made up of a superposition of the two conditions -the cat being living and the cat being dead-" the two positions collapse into one, as soon as the system is interpreted as consisting of only one condition -either dead or living cat-, with the sole possible conclusion that the cat is both). Due to Heisenberg and Bohr's independent interpretation of Quantum theory (the ""Copenhagen interpretation), Quantum theory had in 1927 developed in a direction unforeseen by Schrödinger. ""Schrödinger was ""concerned and disappointed"" that this ""transcendental, almost physical interpretation of the wave phenomena"" had become the ""almost universally accepted dogma."""" (D.S.B. XII, p. 221). His most famous and widely used attack on this interpretation was that of ""Schrödinger's Cat"". This paradox of the dead-and-alive cat vigorously illustrated the absurdity of quantum mechanics and what was necessary to describe the states within this system. The thought experiment of Schrödinger's cat turned out to be hugely influential, and has become a standard paradox within both physics and philosophy.‎

‎First apperance of Schrödinger's paper on isotopy and the Gibb's paradox. ""Schrödinger started explicitly from the previous discussion between de Hevesy and Paneth on the one hand, and Fajans on the other, summarizing the results as 'Thermodynamical diversity of isotopes in principle, in spite of their complete or nearly complete chemical replaceability'. Thus far he partially supported the view promoted by Karlsruhe physico-chemist. However, he contradicted a result which Fajans had obtained, stating that the energy set free by mixing or diffusion of the volumes, containing different isotopes of the same chemical element, was proportional to the difference of the respective atomic weights - hence a consequence, it should become arbitrarily small as the mass difference disappeared.

‎First printing and first appearence of these 5 papers which introduces Schrödinger's wave-equations and explains the stationary states of electrons in Bohr's theory of the atom by way of applying de Broglie's concept of electron waves. These papers are among the most important in modern physics.""The intensity of Schrödingers work on the problem (he found the earlier Bohr-Sommerfeld quantum theory unsatisfactory) increased as he saw that he was on the track of ""a new atomic theory"", and it reached a peak during his winter vacation in Arosa. On 27 December 1925 he wrote to Wilhelm Wien, editor of the ""Annalen der Physik"" inMunich that he was very optimistic: ""I believe that I can give a vibrating system...thatyields the hydrogen frequency levels as it eigenfrequencies."" The frequences of the emitted light rays are then obtained, as Schrödinger observed, by establishing the differences of the two eigenfrequencies respectively. ""Consequently the way is opened toward a real understanding of Bohr's frequency calculation - it is really a vibration (or, as the case may be, interference) process, which occurs with the same frequency as the one we observe in the spectroscope. I hope, that I will soon be able to report on this subject in a little more detail and in a more comprehensive fashion"" (Schrödinger's letter to Wien)...The so-called Klein-Gordon equations which Schrödinger used gives an incorrect description of the relativistic structures Schrödinger tried to describe. As this equation he tried to use, describes particles without spin, whereas a a description of electrons requires the Dirac equation...""After a brief interruption Schrödinger took up his method again, but this time he treated the electron nonrelativistically. It soon became apparent that he had arrived at a theory that correctly represented a the behavior of the electron to a very good approximation. THE RESULT WAS THE EMERGENCE OF WAVE MECHANICS IN JANUARY 1926. Schrödinger published the results of his research in a series of four papers in the ""Annalen der Physik"" bearing the overall title ""Quantisierung als Eigenwertproblem."" The first installment, sent on 26 January and received by Wien the next day, contains the first apperarance in the literature of his famous wave equation, written out for the hydrogen atom...""(DSB). In the fifth paper offered here, Schrödinger himself shows that there is an essential equivalence of his theory and that of Heisenberg, Born and Jordan's.‎

‎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. ‎
