First Edition
1st Edition. Bound FIRST EDITION OF BORN, HEISENBERG, & JORDAN'S "MONUMENTAL" THREE-MAN PAPER, â??ON QUANTUM MECHANICS II', THE FIRST COMPLETE STATEMENT OF MATRIX MECHANICS (Peacock, Quantum Revolution, 52). Handsomely rebound. See details below. In this work, Born, Heisenberg, and Jordan extend the methods Heisenberg presented in his initial 1925 paper and apply them to a number of important problems. "This paper definitively set forth [and first named] matrix mechanics â?? the version of quantum mechanics based on the algebraic manipulation of matrices that represent observable quantities such as position, momentum, and energy. Detailed calculations showed that the new matrix mechanics was very successful in predicting the anomalous Zeeman Effect, other forms of line splitting, and line intensities. The three authors even produced a new derivation of Planck's Law" (ibid). In the early 1920s there were fundamental difficulties in atomic physics. The quantum theory of atomic structure, founded by Bohr and largely developed by Bohr and Sommerfeld, did not describe the properties of complicated atoms and molecules. "In spite of its high-sounding name and its successful solutions of numerous problems in atomic physics, â??quantum theory', and especially the â??quantum theory' of polyelectronic systems, prior to 1925, was, from the methodological point of view, a lamentable hodgepodge of hypotheses, principles, theorems, and computational recipes rather than a logical consistent theory. Every single quantum-theoretic problem had to be solved first in terms of classical physics; its classical solution had then to pass through the mysterious sieve of the quantum conditions or, as it happened in the majority of cases, the classical solution had to be translated into the language of quanta in conformance with the correspondence principle? In short, quantum theory still lacked two essential characteristics of a full-fledged scientific theory, conceptual autonomy and logical consistency" (Jammer, The Conceptual Development, 196). The work of Heisenberg, Born, and Jordan rectified these issues and marked the "starting point for the new quantum mechanics," also called matrix mechanics (DSB). Heisenberg published his initial paper formulating his new quantum theory in 1925, but without reference to matrices. "Later the same year, Max Born and Pascual Jordan published a second paper that introduced the matrix formulation for the special case of one degree of freedom" (History of Physics: The Wenner Collection). Finally, in early 1926, all three scientists collaborated on a third paper, this â??three-man paper', and extended the theory to an arbitrary number of degrees of freedom. In its final form, they argued, Heisenberg's formulation of the new quantum theory is a matrix algebra of quantum operators that "predicts the radiation resulting from electron state transitions between energy shells in the atom without reference to how the transitions occur" (ibid).

Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. The Famous "Three-Man Paper" the Monumental First Complete Statement of Matrix Mechanics (1926) HEISENBERG, Werner; Max BORN, and Pascual JORDAN. "Zur Quantenmechanik II" in Zeitschrift fur Physik, Vieweg and Springer, Berlin, 1926, volume 35, pp 557-6. This is the original issue, in the original wrappers, comprising pp 557-722, with the Heisenberg/Born/Jordan paper on pp 557-615. [++] The wrappers are a little dusty, and there's two annotations on the cover plus a chopmark owner's stamp. Also the spine has been expertly replaced a lovely piece of restorative work. The issue is housed in a beautiful clamshell box bound in brown and red calf, with the title of the work gilt-stamped on the front cover and "Three-Man Paper" and the authors' names on the spine. The box measures 10"x 7"x 1.75". Condition: the issue is VG; the box housing it is new. [++] "Born and his assistant, Pascual Jordan, quickly developed the mathematical content of Heisenberg s work into a consistent theory with the help of abstract matrix algebra. Their work, in collaboration with Heisenberg, culminated in their three-man paper [the paper offered here] that served as the foundation of matrix mechanics. Confident of the correctness of the new theory, Heisenberg, Pauli, Born, Dirac, and others began applying the difficult mathematical formalism to the solution of lingering problems. But most physicists soon welcomed a rival theory propounded by Erwin Schrödinger in 1926. Schrödinger offered a quantum wave mechanics that purported to replace electron orbits, banish quantum jumps, and require only the familiar methods of partial differential equations. His recognition of the mathematical equivalence of the rival theories and his claim that his theory superseded matrix mechanics caused a flurry of activity among the matrix mechanicians."--Complete DSB online, (Heisenberg). [++] "The 1925 paper On quantum mechanics by M. Born and P. Jordan, and the sequel On quantum mechanics II by M. Born, W. Heisenberg, and P. Jordan, developed Heisenberg s pioneering theory into the first complete formulation of quantum mechanics." noted in the paper by William A. Fedaka and Jeffrey J. Prentis in their work on the 1925 paper, "The 1925 Born and Jordan paper On quantum mechanics in American Journal of Physics 77, 128, 2009. [++] [The paper offered here].often referred to as the three-man paper, extended Zur Quantenmechanik [ Max Born and Pascual Jordan 1925] to an arbitrary number of degrees of freedom, and is now called the first complete statement of matrix mechanics and the foundational document of a new quantum mechanics. --History of Physics, the Wenner Collection.

First Edition
original wrappers. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. FIRST EDITION IN ORIGINAL WRAPPERS of the famous "three-man paper," the first, complete, self-consistent description of quantum mechanics. "In 1925, after an extended visit to Bohr's Institute of Theoretical Physics at the University of Copenhagen, Heisenberg tackled the problem of spectrum intensities of the electron taken as an anharmonic oscillator (a one-dimensional vibrating system). His position that the theory should be based only on observable quantities was central to his paper of July 1925, "Über quantentheoretische Umdeutung kinematischer und mechanischer Beziehungen" ("Quantum-Theoretical Reinterpretation of Kinematic and Mechanical Relations"). Heisenberg's formalism rested upon noncommutative multiplication; Born, together with his new assistant Pascual Jordan, realized that this could be expressed using matrix algebra, which they used in a paper submitted for publication in September as "Zur Quantenmechanik" ("On Quantum Mechanics"). By November, Born, Heisenberg, and Jordan had completed "Zur Quantenmechanik II" ("On Quantum Mechanics II"), colloquially known as the "three-man paper," which is regarded as the foundational document of a new quantum mechanics" (Britannica's Guide to the Nobel Prizes).
