First apperance of this very importent paper where Regnault declared his acceptance of the conservation of energy.""Speculation and discussions of theory are noticeably absent from Regnault’s published work, as they are from his surviving notebooks. But in 1853 he declared his acceptance of the principle of the conservation of energy"" and later he measured the mechanical equivalent of heat, although with only moderate success. In declaring his support for the principle, Regnault stated that he had subscribed to the mechanical theory of heat “for a long time” and that he had been led to it independently through his own experiments ""Comptes rendus... de AcademiE des sciences...""

First printing of an importent paper in which Regnault found the connection between vapour pressure of steam at different temperatures.Henri Victor Regnault improved the method of Dalton to measure the elastic force of vapours at saturation. At the boiling point of a liquid, the elastic force of its vapour is equal to the supported pressure. Thus, if one boils water in an enclosure under increasing pressure conditions, water will reach increasing boiling temperatures at the same time. For each case, the elastic force of vapour will be equal to the imposed pressure.

First printing of Reiche and Smekal's important paper in which they presented their theory of the x-ray spectra""The year and a half in Berlin (1917-1919) was extremely important for Smekal's scientific development and subsequent research. There he took up the quantum, the Bohr theory, and the problem of X-ray spectra. After delivering a crushing blow to the faltering Sommerfeld-Debye theory, which deduced X-ray spectra from hypothetical intra-atomic mechanisms, Smekal, in competition with Dirk Coster and Gregor Wentzel, induced from the experimental data the number, arrangement, and allowed transitions between the atomic energy levels resulting in X-ray spectral lines.""

First printing of Reichenbach famous work on the philosophy of space and time with point of reference in Einstein's theory of relativity.""Reichenbach, who perhaps contributed the most to the recent development of the casual theory of time, approached his axiomatic research from the point of view of epistemology, that is, the theory of physical knowledge. The Axiomatik der relativistischen Raum-Zeit-Lehre, HIS GREAT ATTEMPT AT A PHILOSOPHICAL INTERPRETATION OF RELATIVITY, A BOOK WHICH IS ESSENTIAL TO AN UNDERSTANDING OF THE LOGICAL STRUCTURE OF RELATIVITY, is almost entirely dominated by the idea of causal action of which space and time are only expressions of structural features"".

First appearance of Renner's seminal paper containing what was to become known first as the Renner effect, later the Renner-teller effect. It was the first work to study the dynamic effects that go beyond the Born-Oppenheimer approximation, in which the nuclear and electronic motions in a molecule are uncoupled.Because Renner is the only author of the 1934 paper that first described the effect, it was long called the Renner effect. However, as Herzberg's prestigious books refer to it as the Renner-Teller effect (after Edward Teller), it is now more common to use both names.

---- EDITION ORIGINALE ---- Professeur de mécanique à l'Ecole polytechnique (1872), puis chargé du cours de construction à l'Ecole des mines, H. Résal entre à l'Académie des sciences en 1873. Dans sa Théorie sur la rotation des corps, il a résolu presque sans calcul, grâce à un système particulier d'axes mobiles, des questions capitales se rapportant au mouvement des solides de révolution. En Mécanique, il a introduit l'accélération angulaire composée qui donne le moyen de poser immédiatement les équations du mouvement relatif d'un corps solide. On lui doit encore la théorie du roulement, des surfaces et des courbes de roulement**4455/M7DE
