Die Theorie der Strahlung und der Quanten Mit einem Anhange ber die Entwicklung der Quantentheorie vom Herbst 1911 bis sum Sommer 1913

Abstract

A SHORT account was given in NATURE in November, 1911, of a meeting of the principal authorities on radiation questions held in the autumn of that year in Brussels, under the auspices of M. Ernest Solvay. The present work is the German edition of the papers read at that congress, together with the discussions which took place on them. In the course of the last two years the subject has developed very considerably, and the opinions expressed at Brussels would only give a very incomplete view of the present state of the theory, but this defect has been corrected by the editor, Prof. Eucken, who provides at the end of the book a fairly detailed sketch of the chief advances up to the summer of 1913.
