‎First printing of this paper in which Poulsen describes his invention of the ""TELEGRAPHON"", THE FIRST magnetic sound recorder. The Telegraphone was shown, but not operated at the Paris Exposition in 1900 and obtained a Grand Prix.""The magnetic recording was demonstrated in principle as early as 1898 by Valdemar Poulsen in his telegraphone. Magnetic wire recording, and its successor, magnetic tape recording, involve the use of a magnetizable medium which moves past a recording head. An electrical signal, which is analogous to the sound that is to be recorded, is fed to the recording head, inducing a pattern of magnetization similar to the signal. A playback head (which may be the same as the recording head) can then pick up the changes in the magnetic field from the tape and convert them into an electrical signal.""(Wikepedia).The issue contains further Max Planck's paper ""Kritik zweier Sätze des Hrn.

‎Gravitational Red-Shift in Nuclear Resonance. - [THE POUND-REBKA EXPERIMENT - THE TEST THAT PROVED TIME IS RELATIVE]‎

‎(New York), American physical Society, 1959. Lex8vo. Volume 3, No. 9, November 1, 1959 of ""Physical Review Letters"", In the original printed blue wrappers. A very nice and clean copy externally as well as internally, near mint. Pp. 439-441. [Entire issue: 411-457].‎

‎First publication of the Pound-Rebka experiment which is regarded as being the last of the classical test of general relativity proposed by Albert Einstein to be verified. It is a test of the general relativity prediction that clocks should run at different rates at different places in a gravitational field and is considered to be the experiment that ushered in an era of precision test of general relativity. Today the so called gravitational redshift is essential for understanding the cosmos and operating the Global Positioning System (GPS).""Before he worked out the general theory of relativity, Einstein had already deduced that gravity must affect a light wave's frequency and wavelength. Light moving upwards from Earth's surface, for example, shifts to longer wavelength and lower frequency, as gravity saps it of some energy. But the effect is tiny in earth's modest gravity. In 1959 Robert Pound and Glen Rebka of Harvard University finally succeed in testing this crucial prediction, and they reported their results in [The present paper]."" (Physical Review Focus, 12 July 2005). Although the Global Positioning System (GPS) is not designed as a test of physics, it must account for the gravitational redshift in its timing system. When the first satellite was launched, some engineers neglected to predict that a noticeable gravitational time discrepancy would occur. So the first satellite was launched without the clock adjustment that was later built into satellites. It had a predicted time difference of 38 microseconds per day which, if not accounted for, could lead to hours of discrepancy. ‎

‎First printing of this importent paper in which Preece was the first to use the term ""Edison effect.""""In 1884 William Henry Preece, an official of the British General Post Office, was shown an experiment by Thomas Edison. Of this experiment Preece gave what appears to be the first printed account in a paper entitled 'On a Peculiar Behaviour of Glow-Lamps raised to High Incandescence' (the paper offered)... What Edison had demonstrated was that if a metal plate is sealed into an electric light bulb and joined to the positive end of the filament a considerable curent will pass. If the plate is joined to the negative terminal, however, no current will pass. This was known as the 'Edison effect' and in 1890 Fleming, an electrical engineer who had workes with the Edison Company in London and now was professor at University College, began a carefull study of this phenomenon in carbon filament lamps. In 1904 he was able to demonstrate that this occurred not only with electric waves but also with wireless waves. He thus introduced the basic principle of the modern wireless valve, which permits only unilateral conductivity.""(PMM No 396).Shiers & Shiers ""Early television"", No 186.‎

‎Über die magnetische Nachwirkung. - [THE PREISACH MODEL OF HYSTERESIS]‎

‎Berlin, Springer, 1935. 8vo. In contemporary halv cloth with gilt lettering to spine. In ""Zeitschrift für Physik"", Bd. 94, 1935. Entire volume offered. Stamp to front free end-paper. Fine and clean. Pp. 277-302. [Entire volume: VIII, 818 pp.].‎

‎First printing of Preisach seminal paper in which generalizes hysteresis loops as the parallel connection of independent relay hysterons - today known as the Preisach model of hysteresis. Hysteresis is the dependence of a system not only on its current environment but also on its past environment. This dependence arises because the system can be in more than one internal state. The Preisach Model is being used in such different branches of science as engineering, mechanics, biology and economics. ‎
