The Foundation of Molecular Physics Waals, J. D. van der. Over de continuiteit van de gas- en vloeistoftoestand. Academisch Proefschrift. Leiden, A. W. Sijthoff, 1873. (22:15,5 cm). Mit 1 lith. Falttafel. VIII, 184 S., 1 Bl. Hldr. d. 20. Jh. mit Rvg., OU. beigebunden. Poggendorff III, 1404; DSB XIV, 109 ff. - Erste Ausgabe der bedeutenden Dissertation. "On the basis of his knowledge of the work of Clausius and other molecular theorists, he wrote his dissertation, 'Over de continuiteit...' (1873). As Maxwell said, 'this at once put his name among the foremost in science.' Using rather simple mathematics, the dissertation gave a satisfactory molecular explanation for the phenomena observed in vapors and liquids by Thomas Andrews and other experimenters... This was one of the first descriptions of a collective molecular effect" (DSB). Die nach ihm benannten Van-der-Waals-Kräfte (Van-der-Waals-Wechselwirkungen), die auch die erstaunlichen Kletterleistungen von Geckos und Spinnen erklären, spielen heute eine wichtige Rolle in der Robotik. - Vortitel mit Namenszug, Innendeckel mit mod. Exlibris. First edition. With folding lithographic plate. Van der Waals' doctoral dissertation on gas and fluid states, which laid the foundations for modern molecular physics. In 1910, van der Waals was awarded the Nobel Prize in physics. - Owner's name on half-title, recent bookplate on inner cover. A fine copy, bound in 20th century half-calf, spine gilt, original printed wrappers bound in.
