‎First printing of Smolukowski's important paper on molecule statistics, emulsion and their connection to Brownian Motion. Einstein and Smolukowski work simultaneously and independently in the beginning of the 1900ies Brownian Motion. Smolukowski continued his work in this field and he work is distinct from Einstein's since Einstein said nothing of the collisions between a Brownian particle and the surrounding molecules.""From about 1900 Smoluchowski worked on Brownian movement. He wished to use experimental data to verify the theory he had obtained desire complicated by the confused situation of experimental research. In the meantime Einstein, in papers of 1905 and 1906, had presented a solution to the problem. Smoluchowski then decided to publish his results in 1906, which presented his different method. Einstein started from general relations of statistical physics, an approach that was universal but did not lend itself to visualization. For example, Einstein said nothing of the collisions between a Brownian particle and the surrounding molecules. Smoluchowski started by examining the effects of successive collisions and obtained a final formula that differed little from Einstein's. Smoluchowski's further works in this field extend through an examination of the Brownian movement of a particle undergoing the influence of a quasi-elastic force to the Brownian movements of macroscopic bodies. At the Conference of Natural Scientists at Münster in 1912, Smoluchowski proposed the observation of the Brownian rotative movement of a small mirror suspended on a thin quartz fiber and the observation free end of a similar fiber. The first experiment was performed by W. Gerlach and E. Lehrer in 1927, and later by Eugen Kappler"" the second, by A Houdijk and P. Zeeman, and by E. Einthoven. In 1925, Both experiments confirmed Smoluchowski's calculations.""‎

‎Scarce offprint of Smoluchowski's important paper in which he documented that a layer of smooth spherical particles in vacuum may be used as an effective thermal insulator.""This was discovered by M. Smoluchowski some forty years ago. He investigated both theoretically and experimentally the thermal conductivity of powders, and concluded that filling the space between the walls of a Dewar vessel with a suitable powder would provide improved insulation by reducing the convective currents as well as the radiation and, moreover, would improve the vacuum by absorption. His application for a patent resulted in a long argument with the German Patent Office, whose examiners were reluctant to admit that any material agent could provide a better insulation than 'absolute' vacuum. At that time a large metallic Dewar vessel with its interstice filled with powdered active carbon was built at the Physical Institute of the University in Lwów, and showed the expected high insulating properties.""

‎Scarce offprint of Smoluchowski's important paper on the mathematics behind his seminal coagulation equation. ""The underlying model may be described as follows: Consider n particles in three-dimensional Euclidean space, each particle being surrounded by a sphere of influence of diameter R. The particles move independently of each other, according to a Brownian Motion, as long as their distance is greater than R. When two particles meet at a distance R they stick together and form a ""double particle"", which itself is again in Brownian motion - and so on. Smoluchowski found on a heuristic basis an explicit formula for the average concentration of single, double, triple etc. particles at a time t.""

‎First appearance of the final form of Smoluchowski's rechearches on the Brownian Movements, hereby introducing the Statistical Theory of the Brownian Movements.""Smoluchowski began his 1906 paper (the paper offered) by referring to Einstein's two articles of 1905. ""The findings (of these papers) agree completely with some results which I had...obtained several years ago and which I consider since then as an importent argument for the kinetic nature of this phenomenon."" Then why had he not published earlier ? 'Although it has not been possible for me till now to undertake an experimental test of the consequences of this point of view, something I originally intended to do, I have decided to publish these considerations...' In support of this decision, he stated that his kinetic method seemed more direct, simpler, and therefore more convincing than Einstein's, in which collision kinetics plays no explicit role....In any case, Smoluchowski's paper IS AN OUTSTANDING CONTRIBUTION TO PHYSICSS,even though the priority of Einstein is beyond question (as Smoluchowski himself pointed out).""
