Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Original green cloth white titled in English and Arabic with Saudi General Directorate of Military Works emblem, landscape 45x32cm, with comb-bound interiors. (7)pp title, section dividers and contents + (34)pp captioned colour illustrations on high quality Kodak paper, all present as called for. Covers very good, interiors near fine. This would likely have been accompanied by text volumes, not present here. This is dated September 1983, when the then Saudi Defence and Aviation Minister, Prince Sultan bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, was building a massive military establishment with US, UK and French support in particular. This internal document illustrates plans for a coastal development to the south of Jeddah and west of Mecca. It is not named as such, but very likely relates to King Faisal Naval Base, which King Fahd would inaugurate for the Western (Red Sea) Fleet in 1984. It was a major part of the Saudi Naval Expansion Programme (SNEP) launched in 1974, which also included a base for the Eastern Fleet at Jubail (inaugurated 1980), and the Naval Forces Command in Riyadh. Building on the SNEP, the Saudis signed a 10-year deal with France in 1980 to further strengthen the Navy under the Sawari I Project. This Project 4.5.1, supported by the French Defence Ministry and consultant SGTE, may have been part of that. The document opens with an overall map of the facilities, then describes each in 3 Parts: Helicopter Facilities (HLF), Ship Repair Facilities (SRF), and Marine Works (MRW). These include 2 vicinity maps, artist's 2 impressions of HLF and SRF, and 29 master plans, coastal plans, ground plans and sections. The MRW Ship Repair Quay plan demarcates the Naval Base Main Approach Channel and the Petromin Approach Channel. (Ref. Saudipedia).…

In: "Annales de Chimie et de Physique", 3e Series - Tome 68 a. 4e Series, tome 1. 512 pp. a. 5 large folded engraved plates. + 512 pp. a. 3 large folded engraved plates. Kirchhoff's papers: pp. 5-45 a. pp. 396-411. 5 plates belongs to K's papers, 4 showing spectra and 1 plate (double page) depicts the famous spectroscope invented by K. and used by K. and Bunsen in their importent analysis of the spectra of the elements. First edition in French of Kirchhoff's milestone papers on the interpretation of the dark D lines - noticed by Fraunhofer in 1814 - in the spectrum of the sun, the papers that inspired Max Planck to his theory of quanta (1900). The papers are the French translations of his papers published in Abhandl. d. königl. Akad. d. Wissenscchaften in Berlin in 1861 and 1862.In the course of his preparatory work in the autumn of 1859, Kirchhoff made an unexpected observation. It had long been known that the dark D lines, noticed in the solar spectrum by Fraunhofer (1814), coincided with the yellow lines emitted by flames containing sodium.Kirchhoff's unexpected discovery was that if the intensity of the solar spectrum increased above a certain limit, the dark D lines were made much darker by the interrposition of the sodium flame. He instantly felt that he had got hold of "something fundamental", even though he was at a loss to suggest an explanation. On the day following the surprising observation, Kirchhoff found the the correct interpretation, which wass soon confirmed by new experiments: a substance capable of emittiing a certain spectral line has a strong absorptive power for the same line.The dark D lines in the solar spectrum could accordingly be ascribed to absorption by a solar atmosphere containing sodium. Immense prospects thus opened up of ascertaining the chemical composition of the sun and other stars from the study of their optical spectra. A few more weeks sufficed for Kirchhoff to elaborate a quantitative theory of the relationship between emissive and absorptive poweer."(DSB VII, pp. 381-82).PMM, 278 b. - Barchas, 1169-70 - Sparrow, 117 - Horbli, 59 - Dibner, 153 (the note). …
