(Paris, Bachelier), 1840. 4to. No wrappers. In: "Comptes Rendus Hebdomadaires des Séances de L'Academie des Sciences", Tome XI (No.18). Pp. (667-) 716. (Entire issue offered). Becquerel's paper:pp. 702-703. Some marginal brownspots, margins slightly soiled, light browning an creasing. First printing of an importent paper in the history of photochemistry as he here discovered some effects of coloured rays of the solar spectrum."Edmund Becquerel seems to be the first person to observe, in 1840 (in the paper offered), that the latent daguerreotype image which had been underexposed could be intensified if re-exposed to the yellow and red rays of the spectrum and then developed with mercury. Explaining this phenomenon, Becquerel called the yellow-red continuing rays ("rayon continuateurs") in contrast to the primary rays, which exicited or produced the light image and which he called exiciting rays ("rayons excitateurs"). They are dependent on the wave lenght of the light."(Eder "History of Photography", pp. 265 ff.)"Becquerel was an early experimenter in photography. In 1840 he discovered that the silver halides, natively insensitive to red and yellow light, became sensitive to that part of the spectrum in proportion to their exposure to blue, violet and ultraviolet light, allowing Daguerreotypes and other photographic materials to be developed by bathing in strong red or yellow light rather than by chemical treatment. In practice this technique was rarely used." (Wikipedia).…

Becquerel is known for his discovery of radioactivity, for which he received the Nobel Prize for physics jointly with the Curies in 1903, and for other contributions to that field which he made during the half-dozen years when he was most active in it.After studying infrared spectra "He then studied the absorption of light in crystals (1886-88), particularly its dependence of the plane of polarization of the incident light and the direction of its propagation through crystal (the papers offered). With these researches Becquerel obtained his doctorate from the Faculty of Sciences of Paris (1888) and election to the Academy of Sciences (1889)."(DSB I, p.558).The volume has other notable papers by Chappuis et Riviere, E.

(Paris, Victor Masson et Fils, 1859). Without wrappers. In: "Annales de Chimie et de Physique", 3e Series - Tome 55, Cahier Janvier 1861. Pp. 5-128 a. 2 large folded engraved plates (emission-lines and the phosporoscope). The entire issue offered. First appearance of Becquerel's first two pioneering studies on lluminiscent phenomena. "It was in these studies that Becquerel first described the phosphoroscope, an instrument of his own invention consisting of a box sealed with two disks mounted on the same axis and pierced with holes arranged in such a way that light could not at any one time pass through the entire apparatus. By rapidly revolving these perforated disks, an observer could continously view substances in the dark only fractions of a second after they had been exposed to brilliant light" and by regulating the speed of the revolution of the disks, one could measure the lenght of time that substances continued to glow after the exposure to light. Using this device, Becquerel was able to identify many new phosphorescent substances and to show that the phenomenon G.C. Stokes had named fluorescence in 1852 was in reality only phosphorescence of an extremely short duration.In this manner substances could be analyzed without physical or chemical alteration."(DSB I, p. 556).Becquerel dis his most importent work in optics on the phenomena of luminescence. In the middle years of the nineteenth century, he virtually monopollized the significant discoveries made inthis field.(DSB).…

(Paris, Gauthier-Villars), 1901. 4to. No wrappers. In: "Comptes Rendus Hebdomadaires des Séances de L'Academie des Sciences", Tome 133, No 24. Pp. (969-) 1044. (Entire issue offered). Becquerel's paper: pp. 977-980. First appearance of this historical paper in which Becquerel relates THE FIRST EVIDENCE OF A RADIOACTIVE TRANSFORMATION. "Nothing that Becquerel subsequently accomplished (after his discovery of radioactivity in 1896) was as important as this discovery, by which he opened the way to nuclear physics. Nevertheless, there were two other occasions on which he stood directly on the path of history: when he identified electrons in the radiations of radium (1899 - 1900) and when he published the first evidence of a radioactive transformation (1901). (The paper offered)."(DSB)."To prove his supposition that the uranium would recover its activity, Becquerel set aside some of the inactive uranium solution and its radioactive barium sulfate precipitate for a period of 18 months. Late in 1901, he found that the uranium had completely regained its activity, whereas the barium sulfate precipitate had become completely inactive. Becquerel wrote: "The loss of activity . shows that the barium has not removed the essentially active and permanent part of the uranium. This fact constitutes, then, a strong presumption in favor of the existence of an activity peculiar to uranium, although it is not proved that the metal be not intimately united with another very active product.".…

Paris, Académie des Sciences de l'Institut de France, 1903. Large 4to (28.4 x 22.5 cm). Half title, title page, 360, [i] pp.; 13 plates. Original printed wrappers. Protective transparent sleeve. = Henri Becquerel's definitive work on the "researches into a new property of matter or radioactivity in matter". The discovery of X-rays stimulated interest in a group of elements known to emit certain types of phosphorescence or rays of energy spontaneously. "In 1896, Antoine Henri Becquerel, a French physicist, found that metallic uranium darkens photographic plates and concluded that uranium emits radiation similar to X rays, As a result of his experiments, summarized in Recherches sur une propriété nouvelle de la matière (1903), Becquerel discovered the principle of radioactivity. In that year he shared the Nobel-Prize for physics with the Curies" (Sparrow). A chronological bibliography of 214 papers on radioactivity is contained at the end of the volume. Published as the society's entire Mémoires Volume 46. According to another antiquarian book dealer: "Two versions were published by Firmin Didot in 1903, the first bound in blue paper-covered boards as part of the series Mémoires de l'Academie des Sciences de l'Institut de France, the second a separate edition in cloth. Both are uncommon, with WorldCat reporting on seven institutional copies, but particularly so the journal issue in the original boards." However, this copy appears to be of a third variety, best described as an offprint or, perhaps, preprint, as it comes in original printed wrappers without a printed volume number. Instead, the number is added in pencil after the printed word "Volume", both on the front wrapper and spine. On the wrapper, the publisher is stated to be Gauthier-Villars, not Firmin-Didot. On the title page, however, Firmin-Didot is listed as publisher. Uncut, therefore fore-edge a bit uneven; some light soiling to the wrappers; spine cover partly split, otherwise a very good, clean copy, as issued.

Paris, Académie des Sciences, 1896-1901. Six papers in one. 4to (26.6 x 20.3 cm). 30 pp. Old style blue stiff paper boards. Two title pages of the Comptes Rendus (for 1896 and 1899) bound in. = A nice collection of some of the earliest papers on radioactivity; the first paper published in the year radioactivity was discovered, the others of the years immediately following that discovery. Henri Becquerel (1852-1909) first observed that rays emitted spontaneously from the disintegration of apparently solid substances. Soon afterwards he noted that certain uranium compounds emitted radiations after exposure to sunlight, and that these radiations could pass through plates of aluminium. Also an important collection (the first title, for example, is listed in the Dictionary of Scientific Biography). Exact contents of this collection: Sur diverses proprietés des rayons Uraniques (1896, pp. 855-859); Sur la dispersion anomale de la vapeur de sodium incandescente, et sur quelques conséquences de ce phenomene (1899, pp. 145-151); Recherches sur les phénomenes de phosphorescence produits par le rayonnement du radium (1899, p. 912-917); Sur quelques observations faites avec l'uranium a de tres basses températures (1900, pp. 199-202); Sur le rayonnement des corps radio-actifs (1899, pp. 1205-1207) Sur la radioactivité de l'uranium (1901, pp. 977-980). Some slight, uniform age toning, two pages with a small marginal tear and some stamps. Otherwise very good.…

First appearance of the six landmark papers in which Becquerel documents his discovery of Radio-activity, PROMPTING THE NUCLEAR AGE.Becquerel was an expert in fluorescence and phosphorescence, continuing the work of his father and grandfather. Follwing the discovery of X-rays by Röntgen, Bexquerel investigated fluorescent materials to see if they also emitted X-rays. He exposed a fluorescent uranium salt, pechblende, to light and then placed it on a wrapped photographic plate.He found that a faint image was left on the plate, which he believed was due to the pichblende emitting the light it had absorbed as a more penetrating radiation. However, by chace, he left a sample that had not been exposed to light on top of a photographic plate in a drawer. he noticed that the photographic plate also had a a faint image of the pechblende. After several chemical tests he concluded that these "Becquerel rays" were a property of atoms. He had, by chace, discovered radio-activity and prompted thee beginning of the nuclear age. He shared the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1903 with Marie and Pierre Curie. The "Becquerel Rays" were later discovered to be a composite of three forms of emanation, distinguished by Rutherford as alpha, beta and gamma rays.Dibner: 163 (the later Mémoire from 1903) - PMM: 393 (1903- Mémoire) - Garrison & Morton: 2001 (only the first paper). - Magie "A Sourve Book in Physics" p. 610 ff. - Norman:157. …
