Small stamp on verso of first -and general- titlepage and small stamps to verso of plates. In: ""Annalen der Physik und Chemie. Hrsg. von J.C. Poggendorff"", Ergänzungsband IV.

First German edition of one of the most importent papers in 1900th century physics, and the culmination of Joule's work. The offered paper is a translation of Joule's great memoir ""On the Mechanical equivalent of Heat"", published 1850, and one of the founding papers of the principle of ""The conservation of energy"", - Joule here gave the experimental proof of the conservation law.""Joule was not the first to determine the mechanical equivalent of heat. Rumford had attempted it but had come out with a value that was far too high. Mayer produced a fairly good value before Joule did, but it was Joule who was most accurate (up to his time), who backed up his figure with a large variety of careful experimental data, and who /with Thomson's help) forced the view on the world of science. He therefore gets the credit, and in his honour a unit of work, equal to 10,000,000 ergs, is called the Joule.""(Asimov). - Dibner, Heralds of Science No.158 (the 1843 paper).Joule's first measurement of the mechanical equivalent of heat was published...in 1843. It was made by comparing the heat generated by the current of a magnetoelectric machine with the excess of work which was used in turning the machine when the circuit was closed above that used when it was open....In the following papers in which the mechanical equivalent was measured in different ways we find the same elaborate description of the experiments and a brief statement of the final results. This is particularly true of the GREAT MEMOIR OF 1850 IN WHICH JOULE'S WORK CULMINATED. (Magie ""Source Book in Physics"" p. 203).The volume contains further STOKES, G.G.: ""Ueber die Veränderung der Brechbarkeit des Lichts."" Pp. 177-345 in first German edition.

First appearance of an importent paper in which both Joule and Lord Kelvin publish some thermo-dynamical results in connection with heat developed by air and mechanical work as further proofs of the conservation of energy.Joule is well known for his discovery of Joule's Law, the connection between heat and mechanical work, where heat is a form of energy. ""In December of 1840 he presented a paper to the Royal Society on the production of heat by the electric current. His course of thought led him to the consideration of the relatio between heat and and mechanical work. The results of his investigations were embodied in a series of papers which culminated in his great memoir on the mechanical equivalent of heat, published in 1850. Joule was one of the founders of the principle of the cosservation of energy. Some of his work was done in collaboration with Lord Kelvin.""(Source Book in Physics p. 203).

First apperance of the paper in which Joule presented his last and most exact measurement of ""THE MECHANICAL EQUIVALENT OF HEAT"" by using his famous experimental design, the Paddle-wheel experiment, the most direct demonstration of the heat-mechanical-work equivalence. - He reported his final determinations of the equivalent to the French Academy of Sciences, and presented this learned body with the iron paddle-wheel calorimeter he had used in the case of mercury, thus establishing that heat is a form of energy.Mayer, in his paper, claimed that he was the first to evaluate the mechanical equivalent, and thus claiming priority to the importent conservation law, the first law of thermodynamics and the conservation of energy.Parkinson ""Breakthroughs"" 1847 P.

First publication of Julesz' seminal paper on stereograms, which led directly to the 3D visualizations of pop-culture. A stereogram is a two-dimensional image creating a three-dimensional optical illusion. The invention has had profound influence in the entertainment industry with 3D posters and films as well as scientific researching"" the two Mars Exploration Rovers, launched by NASA in 2003 to explore the surface of Mars, are both equipped with cameras that allow researchers to view stereoscopic images of the surface of Mars.""Julesz (1960) constructed stereograms from a textured pattern of dots randomly positioned in a matrix of cells. The random-dot stereogram (RDS) contained no lines, contours, or edges that could supply monocular information about the shape of the target figure. In an RDS, each eye is presented with a field of randomly distributed dots that essentially disguise the disparity information it provides when the stereogram is viewed dichoptically at the proper fixation distance. [...] To construct an RDS, a random-dot pattern is reproduced so that there is a left and a right half image. A portion of the pattern in the two half-images is altered so as to carry a retinal disparity of dots.""
