First appearance. Brewster analyzes Tabasheer with his new crystallographic methods.Tabasheer, also spelt as Tabachir or Tabashir, is a translucent white substance, composed mainly of silica and water with traces of lime and potash, obtained from the nodal joints of some species of bamboo. It is part of the pharmacology of the traditional Ayurvedic and Unani systems of medicine of the Indian subcontinent. It is also an ingredient in many traditional Chinese medicines.

First appearance of this pioneer work in the optical theory of polarization and double refraction by ""The discoverer of the law of polarization, of biaxal crystals, of optical mineralogy, and of double refraction by compression.""""Since Brewster had found that light was partially polarized by oblique refraction in mica, he attempted to determine the law of this polarization in he simpler case of successive refractions by a pile of thin glass plates. By the end of 1813 he had concluded that ""the number of plates in any parcel, multiplied by the tangent of the angle, at which it (completely) polarises light, is a constant quantity"" (in the paper offered here p. 221). More importent, since ""the pencil of light polarised by transmission (comports) itself, in every respect like one of the pencils former by double refracting crystals"" (the paper offered p. 219), study of the physical optics of transparent ought to enable philosophers ""to unfold the secrets of double refraction, to explain the forms and structure of crystallised bodies....""(DSB).
"BREWSTER, DAVID - DISCOVERING A NEW PROPERTY OF HEAT BIREFRINGENCE IN GLASS
Reference : 45239
(1814)
Results of some recent Experiences on the Properties impressed upon Light by the Action of Glass raised to different Temperatures, and cooled under different Circumstances. In a Letter to Joseph Banks. Read May 19, 1814.
(London, W. Bulmer and Co., 1814). 4to. No wrappers as extracted from ""Philosophical Transactions"" 18154 - Part II. Pp. 436-439.
First appearance of an importent paper in which Brewster reveals his discovery of a new connection between light and heat: ""glass brought to a certain temperature forms two images, and polarises them in opposite manner, like all doubly refracting crystals, the one image being coincident with the other""(p. 437). Brewster was the discoverer of the law of polarization, of biaxal crystals, of optical mineralogy, and of double refraction by compression.Independently of Seebeck, in 1814 English physicist David Brewster started investigating birefringence in glass caused by inhomogeneous heating. He also investigated the effect of sudden cooling of heated glass and discovered that in broken glass birefringence vanishes. Brewster considered his discovery so important* that he hastily published a paper, in which he only verbally described the creation of birefringence in glass by heat.With 2 other notable papers by HENRY KATER ""An improved Method of dividing Astronomical Circles and other Instruments"", pp. 419-435a. 2 folded engraved plates. And JOHN W.F. HERSCHEL ""Consideration of various Points of Analysis"", pp. 440-468.
On the Affections of Light transmitted through crystallized Bodies. In a Letter to Sir Humphrey Davy. Read December 23, 1813.
(London, W. Bulmer and Co., 1814). 4to. No wrappers as extracted from ""Philosophical Transactions"" 1814 - Part I. Pp. 187-218 and 3 engraved plate. Fine and clean.
First printing of pioneer paper in which Brewster laid the foundations of new fields of investigations. by showing that in a large class of crystals there are two axes along which there is no double refraction. Such crystals he calls BIAXAL, the simpler type to which Iceland spar belongs being called UNIAXAL.""Brewster created new fields of optical mineralogy and photoelasticity. In 1813, while studying the ""depolarising"" action of Topaz, he observed two sets of elliptical rings (interference patterns) centered on axes in the Topaz that were apparently inclined at 65 degr.. He interpreted this to mean that Topaz must have two axes, not one, of double refraction, an entirely unexpected result. After many laborious experiments he was able in 1819 to group all but a few of hundreds of minerals and crystals into mutually consistent optical and mineralogical categories: the primitive form determined the number of axes of double refraction.""(DSB).
On some Properties of Light. Read January 28, 1813.

First printing of Brewsters first paper in the Transactions in which he gives a preliminary result of his testing of the transmission of light through around 200 transparent substances. In a paper issued the next year (1814) he called the different phenomena that he observed here, Biaxal and Uniaxal.

First appearance of one of Brewsters importent paper in the field of optical mineralogy, a field he himself created. In the paper he investigates the polarization-force of double refracting crystals. In 1819 he was able to group all but a few of hundreds of minerals and crystals into mutually consistent optical and mineralogical categories: the primitive form determined the number of axes of double refraction.""He regarded ""all the various phenomena of polarisation of light by reflexion and refraction as brought under the dominion of laws as well determined as those which regulate the motions of the planets."" In 1816 he received the Copley Medal, in 1819 two Rumford Medals, and in 1831 a Royal Medal for the papers in which he announced these discoveries. On the popular level, Brewster’s reputation was established in 1816 by the fad for his kaleidoscope. Its invention was a direct result of his studies of the ory of polarization by multiple reflections.""(DSB).
