Quantum Theory, together with the principles of special and general relativity, constitute a scientific revolution that has profoundly influenced the way in which we think about the universe and the fundamental forces that govern it. The Historical Development of Quantum Theory is a definitive historical study of that scientific work and the human struggles that accompanied it from the beginning. Drawing upon such materials as the resources of the Archives for the History of Quantum Physics, the Niels Bohr Archives, and the archives and scientific correspondence of the...

Diese Auswahl aus dem reichhaltigen Werk Walther Gerlachs erscheint aus Anla seines 100. Geburtstags. Sie gliedert sich in vier Teile, beginnend mit physikalischen Arbeiten dieses gro en Experimentators zum Stefan-Boltzmannschen Strahlungsgesetz, zur Richtungsquantelung im Magnetfeld, zur Spektralanalyse bis hin zu Untersuchungen zur Umweltphysik. Der zweite Teil wendet sich an einen weiten Leserkreis, der sich f r Fragen wie Kosten und Geheimhaltung der wissenschaftlichen Forschung, aber auch f r physikalische Probleme (Natur des Lichts, W rmevorg nge der Atmosph re u.v.m.) interessiert. Die...

This is the final volume of Heisenberg's Collected Works. It contains his papers on a (nonlinear) unified theory of elementary particles, as well as his contribution to superconductivity and multiparticle production. Especially interesting is the first group of papers, which is split intotwo sections dealing with, firstly, the formulation of the famous nonlinear spinor equation and, secondly, its applications. Among others the reader willfind a thorough discussion of Heisenberg's collaboration with W. Pauli on these matters. Illuminating annotations to the various sections in this volume have...
