Published the same year that he was promoted to full professor at Caltech, Linus Pauling's paper entitled 'Rotational Motion of Molecules in Crystals' laid out that diatomic molecules in crystals could only have one of two possible motions: rotation or oscillation. After submitting this paper in May and then returning from a trip to Europe during the summer of 1930, Pauling built an electron diffraction instrument in order to further study the molecular structure of chemical substances. In 1954 Pauling would win the Nobel Prize in Chemistry, and later win a second Nobel Prize for his peace activism in 1962. This particular copy of the journal was originally owned by Raymond Thayer Birge, who taught physics at UC Berkeley and was responsible for bringing Robert Oppenheimer and Ernest Lawrence to teach at the university during the 1930s.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Lancaster, PA. And New York, NY: American Physical Society - American Institute of Physics, 1940. 461-572 pp. 27 x 20 cm.

This issue of The Physical Review contains Fermi's contribution stating that the loss of energy of a fast charged particle is affected by the density of the material that it is passing through, and that the loss is larger in a rarefied medium than it is in a more condensed one. This article explains how mesotrons, now called mesons, are absorbed differently in air versus condensed material. This issue also contains a letter to the editor from Afred O. Nier, who pioneered the development of mass spectrometry, entitled 'Nuclear Fission of Separated Uranium Isotopes'. Nier's letter states that he was able to isolate uranium-235 using a mass spectrograph of his own design. The sample he produced was then used by John R. Dunning to verify that uranium-235 was the responsible isotope for nuclear fission. This confirmation was a crucial step in the development of the atomic bomb. This particular copy of the review was previously owned by the physicist Robert Brode, who led the group in Los Alamos at the Manhattan Project that developed the fuses used in atomic bombs. .
