Morley, "Feasibility of Establishing a Light-wave as the Ultimate Standard of Length." "Michelson accepted an offer in 1889 to move to the new Clark University at Worcester, Massachusetts. Concurrently he began to carry out a monumental metrological project that he and Morley had envisioned to determine experimentally the length of the international meter bar at Sèvres in terms of wavelengths of cadmium light. Adapting his refractometer as a comparator for lengths that could be reduced through spectroscopy and interferometric techniques to nonmaterial standards of length, Michelson found in 1892 1893 that the Paris meter bar was equal to 1,553,163.5 wavelengths of the red cadmium line. So elegant were the success and precision of this project that Michelson became internationally famous. In 1893 Michelson moved to the new University of Chicago to head its department of physics. There he began to develop his interests in astrophysical spectroscopy. Diffraction gratings, a new harmonic analyzer, and the echelon spectroscope, as well as a large-scale vertical interferometer, were designed by and built for Michelson around the turn of the century."--Complete DSB online. [++] FERREL, William. "The Law of Thermal Radiation" pp 3-28. Ferrel was a remarkable pioneer in the new field of mathematical meteorology. "After Laplace, Ferrel was the chief founder of the subject now known as geophysical fluid dynamics. He gave the first general formulation of the equations of motion for a body moving with respect to the rotating earth and drew from them the consequences for atmospheric and oceanic circulation. He contributed to meteorological and tidal theory and to the problem of earth wobble (changes in the axis and speed of the earth s rotation)."--Complete DSB online. He was an "American meteorologist known for his description of the deflection of air currents on the rotating Earth. Ferrel did research on tides, currents, and storms and invented a machine to predict tidal maxima and minima. He wrote Meteorological Researches, 3 vol. (1877 82), Popular Essays on the Movements of the Atmosphere (1882), Temperature of the Atmosphere and the Earth s Surface (1884), Recent Advances in Meteorology (1886), and A Popular Treatise on the Winds (1889). "--Ency Britannica "The last ten years-of Ferret's life were years of great productiveness in the development of his views on meteorology. his minor works were also important, such as his " Psychrometric Formulae and Tables," his "Barometric Hypsometry " and the allied " Method of Reduction to Sea-level," his studies on the "Arago-Davy Actiuometer " and on the " Law of Thermal Radiation."

Newly and very tastefully rebound in calf-backed marbled boards. The text is in VG+ condition. PROVENANCE: there is an interesting collection and rich lineage of ex-libris rubber stamps on the title page, including an ownership stamp of the Carl Zeiss library in Jena (see pic).

No. III, On the General Equations of Monochromatic Light in Media of Every Degree of Transparency", pp 107-114. [AND WITH] S.P. LANGLEY, "The Selective Absorption of Solar Energy", pp 169-196. [++] The first paper here is a long one by Bell on a rather famous attempt/experiment modifying his telephone in attempting to explore for the bullet in the mortally-wounded U.S. President James Garfield (who was shot by an assassin in July 1881). This was a very well-documented and public event that was followed in popular magazines, and yet there are scant references to this paper that I have been able to locate. At the time the paper was submitted, Garfield was still alive, though by the time of publication he would be dead, succumbing 79 days after the assassination attempt. Bell made several attempts to locate the projectile but was unsuccessful. That said, this was a major application of his "telephonic" device to non-invasively locate metal objects in patients in the pre-X-ray period. As a piece of trivia I should note that the device was developed at Bell's Volta Bureau, which was only two blocks away from my store back in my old Georgetown (DC) days. [++] There were earlier treatments on this event, though none that I can find come anywhere close to thorough description (with additions and improvements) that we see here. (For example, there was a one-page summation of the event--"Probing by Electricity"-- that appeared in "Nature, an Illustrated Weekly Journal of Science", London, 10 November 1881, vol 25 no. 628, page 40.).

In a Letter to Mr. D. P. Todd," in Proceedings of the Royal Society of London; London, Harrison & Sons, Vol. XXX, No. 200, December 1879 July, 1880; ix, 599pp,… with the Maxwell on pp 108-110. Beautifully and newly rebound in calf-backed marbled boards. There is some very occasional foxing here and there, but only for a few pages at a time (see photo). [++] The paper by (the deceased) Maxwell is actually not quite a paper by Maxwell, but a report by George Stokes on a letter that Maxwell wrote to D(avid) P(eck) Todd, so of course the content belongs to Maxwell, the resulting impact of which was providing a basis for the Michelson-Morley experiment. " Then in his article Ether for the Encyclopedia Britannica he again reviewed the problem of motion through the ether. The only possible earth-based experiment was to measure variations in the velocity of light on a double journey between two mirrors. Maxwell concluded that the time differences in different directions would be too small to detect. He proposed another method from timing the eclipses of the moons of Jupiter, which he later described in more detail in a letter to the American astronomer D. P. Todd, published after his death in the Royal Society Proceedings [the paper offered here] and in Nature. His statements there about the difficulties of the earth-based experiment served as a challenge to the young Albert Michelson, who at once invented his famous interferometer to do it."--Complete DSB online (Maxwell) [++] Also in this volume is: G.H, Darwin, "On the Analytical Expressions which give the History of a Fluid Planet of Small Viscosity, attended by a Single Satellite" on pp 255-278 AND "On the Secular Changes in the Elements of a Satellite revolving about a Tidally Distorted Planet" pp 1-10, which is Darwin's "resonance theory" on the origin of the Moon being a product of fissioning from Earth the Earth theoretically at one time spinning so rapidly that centrifugal force spun out material into orbit which would then become the Moon. This is different from the "resonance theory" of Charles Darwin, on the similarity of cross-species interpretation of rhythm. ["Another group of papers, dated from 1879 to 1880, are concerned with the tides in viscous spheroids, and still show the influence of both Kelvin and Laplace, although their scope is more general. In his paper of this series, On the Precession of a Viscous Spheroid and on the Remote History of the Earth (1879), Darwin proposed the resonance theory of the originated from the fission of a parent earth as the result of an instability produced by resonant solar tides. His monumental paper On the Secular Changes in the Elements of the Orbit of a Satellite Revolving About a Tidally Distorted Planet was published in 1880 [the paper offered here].
