Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Corpuscular Theory of Matter This book is an expansion of a course of lectures given at the Royal Institution in the Spring of 1906. It contains a description of the properties of corpuscles and their application to the explanation of some physical phenomena. In the earlier chapters a considerable amount of attention is devoted to the consideration of the theory that many other properties of metals are due to the motion of corpuscles diffused throughout the metal. This theory has received strong support from the investigations of Drude and Lorentz; the former has shown that the theory gives an approximately correct value for the ratio of the thermal and electrical conductivities of pure metals and the latter that it accounts for the long-wave radiation from hot bodies. I give reasons for thinking that the theory in its usual form requires the presence of so many corpuscles that their specific heat would exceed the actual specific heat of the metal. I have proposed a modification of the theory which is not open to this objection and which makes the ratio of the conductivities and the long-wave radiation of the right magnitude. The later chapters contain a discussion of the properties of an atom built up of corpuscles and of positive electricity, the positive electricity being supposed to occupy a much larger volume than the corpuscles. The properties of an atom of this kind are shown to resemble in many respects those of the atoms of the chemical elements.

This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Matter and Some of Its Dimensions Particularly is this true with reference to the electrical theory of matter, which seems to give a moral value to the intellectual perceptions of modern physicists. Though not yet elevated to the dignity of a universally accepted theory, it is no exaggeration to say that its advocates are to be found among the world's greatest thinkers, and that their numbers daily increase. The content of the following pages is to be regarded in the light of an hypothesis only. The facts have been culled from a variety of sources, and only those discussed which are well recognized in the scientific and philosoph 1cal worlds. Much time has been expended in marshaling these facts, but the writer feels that he will be more than repaid if, in the case of a single reader, he has dulled the edge of doubt or caused one sorrow to seem less real.

Download or read book Matter and Light The New Physics written by Louis De Broglie and published by Read Books Ltd. This book was released on 2013-04-18 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE amiable insistence of my friend André George has induced me to collect in the present Volume a number of Studies on contemporary Physics written from both the general and the more metaphysical point of view. Each of these Studies forms an independent whole, and can be read by itself. A slight degree of repetition—which the reader is asked to overlook—has been the inevitable result: for on more than one occasion I have been compelled to duplicate a summary of the great fundamental stages of contemporary Physics, such as the classification of simple substances, the investigation of the photo-electric effect and the origin of the Theory of Light Quanta and of Wave Mechanics: the subjects are somewhat technical, and I cannot well assume that they are common knowledge. But though the same subject is outlined in several of these Studies, I have tried to take up a different point of view in each, and have endeavoured to throw light on different aspects of the essential problems of Quantum Physics in order to facilitate a grasp of their importance. On comparing the different chapters the reader will observe that, while overlapping, they also complement one another; and he will feel the fascination and greatness inherent in the vast structure of modern Physics. And while admiring the vast number and the extreme delicacy of experimental facts which laboratory physicists have succeeded in revealing, and the strange and brilliant concepts devised by theorists to explain them, he will appreciate to what a degree the methods and ideas of physicists have grown in subtlety during recent years, and how great has been the progress from the somewhat ingenuous Realism and the over-simplified Mechanics of earlier thinkers. The more deeply we descend into the minutest structures of Matter, the more clearly we see that the concepts evolved by the mind in the course of everyday experience—especially those of Time and Space—must fail us in an endeavour to describe the new worlds which we are entering. One feels tempted to say that the outlines of our concepts must undergo a progressive blurring, in order that they may retain some semblance of relevance to the realities of the subatomic scales. Time and Space, in other words, are too loose a dress for the elementary entities; individuality becomes attenuated in the mysterious processes of interaction, and even Determinism, the darling of an older generation of physicists, is forced to yield. But the great book of Science is never finished: other surprises await us: who knows what mysteries are hidden within the nucleus of an atom, which, although a million million times smaller than the smallest living thing, is yet a universe in itself?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Properties of Matter, Vol. 5 Under the title Properties of Matter the author has endeavoured to treat those branches of Physics which are not usually included in books on Light, Sound, Heat, or Electricity. The book is intended for use in Secondary Schools, Technical Schools, and University Colleges, and includes all that is usually, required for a Pass degree. The treatment is experimental, and the use of advanced mathematics has been avoided; but the calculus has been used in places where the avoidance of it leads to tedious calculations. It is hoped that this volume will fulfil a useful function by providing an elementary course of work on the Properties of Matter, from which the more intricate details and the more advanced theory are omitted.
