Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

The Laws of Radiation and Absorption: Memoirs by Prevost, Stewart, Kirchhoff, and Kirchoff and Bunsen (1901) is a book edited by D.B. Brace that contains a collection of scientific memoirs written by some of the most prominent physicists of the 19th century. The book focuses on the laws of radiation and absorption, which are fundamental principles in the study of thermodynamics and electromagnetism.The first memoir, written by Pierre Prevost, discusses the principle of exchange of heat between bodies at different temperatures. The second memoir, written by Balfour Stewart, explores the relationship between the temperature of a body and the amount of radiation it emits. The third and fourth memoirs, written by Gustav Kirchhoff and Robert Kirchoff respectively, discuss the laws of thermal radiation and the relationship between the absorption and emission of radiation.The final memoir, written by Robert Bunsen, describes his experiments with spectroscopy, which led to the discovery of several new elements. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the laws of radiation and absorption, and their applications in the field of physics. It is a valuable resource for students and researchers in the field of thermodynamics and electromagnetism.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
