Mémoires sur l’action mutuelle de deux courans électri- ques, sur celle qui existe entre un courant électrique et un aimant ou le globe terres- tre, et celle de deux aimans l’un sur l’autre. [Paris: Feugeray, 1821]. $22,500 8vo (219 x 133mm), pp. [3], 4-112 with five folding engraved plates (a few faint scattered spots).

An untouched copy in its original state. First edition, probable first issue, extremely rare and inscribed by Ampère, of this continually evolving collection of important memoirs on electrodynamics by Ampère and others. “Ampère had originally intended the collection to contain all the articles published on his theory of electrodynamics since 1820, but as he pre- pared copy new articles on the subject continued to appear, so that the fascicles, which apparently began publication in 1821, were in a constant state of revision, with at least five versions of the collection appearing between 1821 and 1823 un- der different titles” (Norman). The collection begins with ‘Mémoires sur l’action mutuelle de deux courans électriques’, Ampère’s “first great memoir on electrody- namics” (DSB), representing his first response to the demonstration on 21 April 1820 by the Danish physicist Hans Christian Oersted (1777-1851) that electric currents create magnetic fields; this had been reported by François Arago (1786- 1853) to an astonished Académie des Sciences on 4 September.

  • Characterization of the Nonlinear Light Emission by the Liquid Scintillator Used in the Daya Bay Experiment
    Diplomarbeit Characterization of the Nonlinear Light Emission by the Liquid Scintillator Used in the Daya Bay Experiment Ausgeführt an der Technischen Universität Wien unter Anleitung von Univ.Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Dr.techn. Gerald Badurek in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory unter Anleitung von Prof. Herbert Steiner und Dr. Daniel Dwyer durch Christian Dorfer Patergassen 63 9564 Reichenau Ort, Datum Unterschrift Abstract This thesis has been prepared within the Daya Bay group at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in California. It describes the measurement of the nonlinearity in light emission by a linear alkylbenze-based liquid scintillator in response to electrons with kinetic energies from ∼0.2 to ∼1.0 MeV. The electrons were generated inside the liquid scintillator volume via Compton scattering of 1.332 MeV gamma rays emitted by a 2.59 MBq 60Co radioactive source. A Compton spectrometer was designed and custom-built to scan over the full range of electron energies. Geant4-based simulations were used to optimize the spectrometer design and estimate systematic effects from energy loss and multiple scattering. The ratio of light emitted relative to the electron’s kinetic energy was found to be (17.59±1.24) % lower at 0.2 MeV compared to 1.0 MeV, demonstrating significant nonlinearity. This precision determination of scintillator nonlinearity will facilitate the improved measurement of reactor antineutrino oscillation by the Daya Bay experiment. Kurzfassung Diese Forschung für diese Arbeit wurde in der Daya Bay Gruppe des Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory in Kalifornien durchgeführt. Die Arbeit beschreibt die Messung der nichtlinearen Lichtemission von auf flüssigem Alkylbenzol-basierten Szintillator bei Anregung durch energetis- che Elektronen zwischen ∼0.2 und ∼1 MeV.

You did it. After years of study, volumes of projects and papers, dozens of tests and a once-in-a-century global pandemic, you have attained the honor of graduate of the University of Michigan College of Engineering. For some of you, this day was long anticipated. For others, challenges loomed at every turn. In any case, you would not be here had you not put in the work. You earned it. My sincere hope is that each of you will proudly embrace the resilience you have demonstrated. Think about how the world has changed in a year. One profound shift forced your greater awareness of the impact of separation and the transience of life. Recall your initial thoughts and your subsequent actions. Whatever it took, you endured, learned about yourself and adapted to your circumstances. You made it to graduation during one of the most challenging academic years in recent history. While pursuing your aim, in this implausible reality, you still found many ways to help others. You spoke out against systemic racism, sexism and other “isms” that deny our shared humanity. Young aspiring engineers felt inspired by your encouragement. Organizations discovered new possibilities through your insights.
