  • 5Th World Congress on Physics July 17-18, 2018 Prague, Czech Republic
    Štefan Zajac, J Laser Opt Photonics 2018, Volume:5 DOI: 10.4172/2469-410X-C2-025 5th World Congress on Physics July 17-18, 2018 Prague, Czech Republic Štefan Zajac Czech Technical University, Czech Republic Physics and Prague hysics has been cultivated in Prague since at least 1348, when a University was founded here by Emperor Charles IV. At Pthe beginning the main emphasis was on Astronomy. First astronomers Křišťan from Prachatice (1360 – 1439) and Jan Ondřejov Šindel (1375 – 1456) in co-operation with clockmaker Mikuláš of Kadaň around 1410 had designed and installed the astronomical clock placed on the Old Town Hall tower in Prague. Astronomer and Chief Physician Tadeuš Hájek of Hájek (1525-1600) had inluenced Emperor Rudolph II to invite Tycho Brahe (1546 – 1601) and Johannes Kepler (1571 – 1630) to come to Prague where the first two of his laws of planetary motion have been formulated. Jan Marcus Marci of Kronland (1595 – 1667), a physicist, physician and rector of Prague University made original research in mechanics (impact of bodies) and optics (diffraction of light, explanation of rainbow). In the middle of the 18th century at the Clementinum, the Jesuit College, physicist Josef Stepling (1716 -1778) and his successors at the Prague Faculty of Philosophy promoted Newtonian Physics . Christian Doppler (1803 – 1853) as professor at Prague Polytechnic in 1842 published important phenomenon of the frequency shift due to the velocity of the source of waves relative to the observer. His younger colleague Bohumil Kučera (1874 – 1921) had started pioneering research in radioactivity and had inspired professor Jaroslav Heyrovský (1890 – 1967) to develop polarography for which he in 1959 earned Nobel Prize for chemistry.

  • Planck's Quantum Theory of Ideal
    Pursuing an Idea: Planck’s Quantum Theory of Ideal Gas ∗ Massimiliano Badino† 1 Prelude: One Hundred Years of ‘Quantitude’ Many years later, as he faced the firing squad, Erwin Planck was to remember that distant afternoon when his father took him to discover the quantum. It was indeed in a day at the beginning of the last century, during a walk in the Grunewald Forest, that Max Planck in- formed his youngest son that his recent discovery was the greatest since the time of Newton. After that day, physics was never the same again. From the mysterious realm of the interac- tion between matter and radiation, the quantum spread out both in the theory of radiation and in the theory of matter and eventually changed our picture of the physical world. Planck played a foremost role in this revolution till the mid-1920 and especially his work on the ap- plication of quantum hypothesis to the ideal gas was instrumental in setting the stage for quantum mechanics. In this paper I will give a cursory outline of this work and, centering on the argumen- tative structure, I will argue that Planck’s theory of gas was framed according to a theoretical strategy he had already adopted in his previous work on radiation theory. The thrust of this strategy consists in focussing on the general features of the system and leaving aside spe- cific assumptions on the micro-processes. Throughout the years Planck reconfigured and reorganized his arguments and the great flexibility of his theoretical strategy allowed him to maintain a consistent outlook on the problem.

  • Paul Ehrenfest: De Leidse Onderzoekschool Van Een Fysicus in Diaspora
    Paul Ehrenfest: de Leidse onderzoekschool van een fysicus in diaspora He was […] the best teacher in our profession Albert Einstein Eind augustus 1932 ontving Philip Idenburg, secretaris van het curatorium van de Leidse universiteit, een verontrustende brief. De schrijver van het epistel was Albert Einstein, het onderwerp de geestesgesteldheid van de Leidse hoogleraar Paul Ehrenfest. Einstein sprak openlijk zijn zorg uit over Ehrenfest, die naar zijn zeggen gebukt ging onder zware depressies en zou spelen met de gedachte aan zelfmoord. Einstein drong krachtig aan op snelle maatregelen. De oorzaak van Ehrenfests gemoedstoestand moest volgens Einstein gezocht worden in de stormachtige ontwikkelingen binnen de theoretische natuurkunde, Ehrenfests vakgebied. De nieuwe opvattingen karakteriseerde Einstein als ‘heterogeen, verwarrend en logisch onbevredigend, maar door de feiten afgedwongen.’ In deze chaotische situatie was het een theoretisch natuurkundige niet langer mogelijk het vakgebied in zijn geheel te beheersen en aldus als ‘leider en wegwijzer’ te dienen voor de jonge generatie onderzoekers. Voor een veeleisend en gewetensvol leraar als Ehrenfest was deze toestand eenvoudigweg ondraaglijk. Volgens Einstein bestond er maar één uitweg uit dit dilemma: de eventueel tijdelijke aanstelling van een tweede theoretisch natuurkundige. Wellicht zou na een jaar of tien de situatie in de natuurkunde weer genormaliseerd zijn. Hij wees er daarnaast op dat een verdeling van taken in de experimentele natuurkunde reeds gebruikelijk was. Idenburg reageerde voortvarend. Maar ondanks de steun van het College van Curatoren slaagde hij er niet in het gewenste te bewerkstelligen. Het ministerie weigerde extra geld uit te trekken voor de Leidse natuurkunde. Ruim een jaar later werden Einsteins angstige vermoedens bewaarheid.

  • The Gibbs Paradox: Early History and Solutions
    entropy Article The Gibbs Paradox: Early History and Solutions Olivier Darrigol UMR SPHere, CNRS, Université Denis Diderot, 75013 Paris, France; [email protected] Received: 9 April 2018; Accepted: 28 May 2018; Published: 6 June 2018 Abstract: This article is a detailed history of the Gibbs paradox, with philosophical morals. It purports to explain the origins of the paradox, to describe and criticize solutions of the paradox from the early times to the present, to use the history of statistical mechanics as a reservoir of ideas for clarifying foundations and removing prejudices, and to relate the paradox to broad misunderstandings of the nature of physical theory. Keywords: Gibbs paradox; mixing; entropy; irreversibility; thermochemistry 1. Introduction The history of thermodynamics has three famous “paradoxes”: Josiah Willard Gibbs’s mixing paradox of 1876, Josef Loschmidt reversibility paradox of the same year, and Ernst Zermelo’s recurrence paradox of 1896. The second and third revealed contradictions between the law of entropy increase and the properties of the underlying molecular dynamics. They prompted Ludwig Boltzmann to deepen the statistical understanding of thermodynamic irreversibility. The Gibbs paradox—first called a paradox by Pierre Duhem in 1892—denounced a violation of the continuity principle: the mixing entropy of two gases (to be defined in a moment) has the same finite value no matter how small the difference between the two gases, even though common sense requires the mixing entropy to vanish for identical gases (you do not really mix two identical substances). Although this paradox originally belonged to purely macroscopic thermodynamics, Gibbs perceived kinetic-molecular implications and James Clerk Maxwell promptly followed him in this direction.

  • Paul Ehrenfest As a Mediator
    The Global and the Local: The History of Science and the Cultural Integration of Europe. nd Proceedings of the 2 ICESHS (Cracow, Poland, September 6–9, 2006) / Ed. by M. Kokowski. Marijn J. Hollestelle * Paul Ehrenfest as a mediator (1) Introduction In 1912, the 32 year old Austrian born theoretical physicist Paul Ehrenfest succeeded the famous Hendrik Antoon Lorentz as professor of theoretical physics in Leiden, the Netherlands. Immediately he introduced — parallel to his approach in research — an approach in teaching, which can be sum- marized best as: ‗physics by means of communication.‘ Although very original in his own research, he didn‘t operate at the top of his field. But in his teaching, his contacts with colleagues and even in his own research, he incessantly played the role of a mediator of knowledge. And in this way, he was an important physicist, despite his lack of own creative work. In this paper, I want to give some examples of his mediation.1 (2) Experimental test of relativity Starting in Leiden in 1912, Ehrenfests inaugural lecture reflects his topic of interest of that time: relativity, in this case the special theory. Ehrenfest had already acquainted himself with Einstein, the two had become good friends, and several letters concerning relativity were exchanged. Ehrenfest had even drawn attention to an essential problem in relativity, which we now call the ‗Ehrenfest Paradox‘.2 He thus was well informed about relativity, and in his talk he spoke about the difference between the theory of Einstein/Lorentz and the alternative emission theory of Ritz.3 The Swiss Walter Ritz had unfortunately died in 1909, but Ehrenfest didn‘t talk about Ritz‘ theory to honour his dearly departed friend.

  • Beltrami-Trkalian Vector Fields in Electrodynamics: Hidden Riches for Revealing New Physics and for Questioning the Structural Foundations of Classical Field Physics
    Beltrami-Trkalian Vector Fields in Electrodynamics: Hidden Riches for Revealing New Physics and for Questioning the Structural Foundations of Classical Field Physics Don Reed Introduction When we come to examine the annals of classical hydrodynamics and electrodynamics, we find that the foundations of vector field theory have provide some key field structures whose role has repeatedly been acknowledged as instrumental in not only underpinning the structural edifice of classical continuum field physics, but in accounting for its empirical exhibits as well. However, there is one equally important vector field configuration which, despite its ubiquitous exhibit throughout a panoply of applications in classical field physics, has strangely enough remained less understood, under-appreciated and currently consigned to linger in relative obscurity, known only to specialists in certain fields. The following exposition seeks to remedy this situation by calling attention to the extensive but little recognized applications of this field structure in various areas of hydrodynamics and electrodynamics. Also, many of these empirical exhibits, particularly in classical electrodynamics, have continued to be accompanied by recorded energy anomalies or other related phenomena currently little understood by accepted scientific paradigms. Is one indication which strongly implies a disturbing lack of completeness in the foundation of electromagnetic theory. The aim of this paper is to show that these deficiencies could possibly be better understood once it is acknowledged that certain exhibits of classical EM in a macroscopic context – much like those associated with the Aharonov-Bohm effect for instance, which has been originally quantum-mechanically canonized, may in fact be a function of classical topological field symmetries higher than those of the standard U(1) variety.

At Pthe beginning the main emphasis was on Astronomy. First astronomers Křišťan from Prachatice (1360 – 1439) and Jan Ondřejov Šindel (1375 – 1456) in co-operation with clockmaker Mikuláš of Kadaň around 1410 had designed and installed the astronomical clock placed on the Old Town Hall tower in Prague. Astronomer and Chief Physician Tadeuš Hájek of Hájek (1525-1600) had inluenced Emperor Rudolph II to invite Tycho Brahe (1546 – 1601) and Johannes Kepler (1571 – 1630) to come to Prague where the first two of his laws of planetary motion have been formulated. Jan Marcus Marci of Kronland (1595 – 1667), a physicist, physician and rector of Prague University made original research in mechanics (impact of bodies) and optics (diffraction of light, explanation of rainbow). In the middle of the 18th century at the Clementinum, the Jesuit College, physicist Josef Stepling (1716 -1778) and his successors at the Prague Faculty of Philosophy promoted Newtonian Physics .
