(Leipzig, Johann Ambrosius Barth, 1906). 8vo. No wrappers. Extracted from "Annalen der Physik" Vierte Folge. Bd. 21. Entire issue no. 13 offered. Pp. 401-456. [Entire issue: Pp. 401-608]. First appearance of Stark's extensive paper and most detailed paper on the Doppler-effect. In 1919 he was awarded the Nobel Prize in physics: "for his discovery of the Doppler effect in canal rays and the splitting of spectral lines in electric fields"."With the relatively elaborate equipment available to him in his own laboratory at Aachen, Stark completed his research in progress, chiefly on the dissymmetry of Bremsstrahlung, and undertook new series of experiments on the splitting of spectral lines in an electric field. While at Göttingen he had been encouraged by Woldemar Voigt to investigate this electrical analogy to the magnetic Zeeman effect. Stark’s first preparatory experiment, at the beginning of 1906, had been a failure; but he was successful in October 1913. He described the experiment in a short autobiographical account. Having procured all the necessary equipment -"a high-intensity spectrograph of rather large dispersion, high-tension sources, and Gaede pumps" - he looked for the effect "simultaneously in the hydrogen and helium lines." An electric field of between 10,000 and 31,000 volts/cm, was established in the canal-ray tube." (DSB)

First publication of the highly influential Mealy machine: a finite-state machine whose output values are determined both by its current state and by the values of its inputs. Mealy machines are useful to describe how an output is associated with the transition. A full-adder changes state to reflect the carry-in and outputs the sum as the transition takes place. Vending machines can be set up as Mealy machines.Other papers of interest contained in the present volume: 1.

Plates loose. (Entire issue offered with wrappers (Heft 2)). Lebedew's paper: pp. 292-297. First printing of a famous paper in astrophysics. Lebedew argues, "that if a small-enough particle is placed near the sun, the attractive force of the sun's gravitation could be more than compensated for by the repulsive force from the light rays." (Partington "Breakthroughs", 1892 A)."As early as 1891 Lebedev became seriously interested in the pressure of light. He turned his attention to the fact that since the force of gravity is proportional to the volume of a body whereas light pressure must be proportional to its surface, it may be asserted that in a particle of cosmic dust the forces of light pressure pushing the particle away from the sun will be equals to the force of gravity attracting it toward the sun. Lebedev used this theory to explain why comets’tails always point away from the sun."(DSB).
