Extractions: Supervisor: Peter Barker Cometary Theories from Newton to Laplace ABSTRACT The topic of my dissertation is the post-Newtonian cometary theories. Based on definitions and physical explanations of the comets in history of astronomy, I have divided my dissertation into three main chapters: 1) Comets as meteorological objects (from Aristotle to Brahe) 3) Comets as "regular" objects in the Solar System (from the early 19th century, following the passage of Halley in 1835) I will concentrate mostly on transition of the cometary theories from the second to the third period (above). Therefore, the first chapter will provide a general background, while chapter 2 and especially chapter 3 will seek those factors that caused a drastic change in our understanding of the comets. To demonstrate this change, I will try to show the interaction between observation, instrumentation and calculation in cometology of the 18th and 19th centuries.

Extractions: ONE BOOK, 1393 YEARS - A history of the Almagest 1.1 Introduction One book dominated astronomy for nearly one-thousand four-hundred years. This was the Almagest of Claudius Ptolemy. Why was just one book so influential and so dominant that it took so long to be surpassed? 1.2 Ptolemy Ptolemy lived in Egypt in the period when it was part of the Roman Empire. We know very little about him personally and the dates of his life (AD.100 to 178) are only approximate. He worked in the city of Alexandria. Alexandria is located on the northern (Mediterranean) coast of Egypt. It was a city renowned for learning and had a famous library and museum. Possibly, Ptolemy himself worked in one or other of these institutions. Ptolemy wrote in Greek, which was the scientific and philosophical language of his day. He is famous for writing many books on scientific subjects. These are: "Mathematical Syntaxis" (The Almagest) Astronomy "On the Apprations of the Fixed Stars and a Collection of Prognostics" Astronomy

Johann Regiomontanus cuyo nombre verdadero fue Johann Müller de Königsberg (Regiomontanus es la versión latina del mismo Königsberg = "King's mountain") nació el 6 Junio de 1436 en Königsberg, Arzobispado de Mainz (ahora Alemania). A los 11 años ingresó a la Universidad de Leipzig y a los 16 se marchó a Viena en donde estudió con Georg von Peurbach, en 1461 fue nombrado profesor de astronomía en la Universidad de Viena ocupando el puesto de su profesor y en 1468 trabajó como astrónomo real del rey Matthias Corvinus de Hungría. Realizó importantes contribuciones a la trigonometría y astronomía y de hecho se considera como el iniciador de la trigonometría moderna. Su libro De Triangulis Omnimodis (1464) es un resumen sistemático de los métodos para estudiar los triángulos. Gran conocedor de los textos griegos, y estudioso de Euclides y Ptolomeo , realizó una rigurosa traducción latina del Almagesto , iniciada por su maestro Peuerbach, y expuso el sistema tolemaico en una obra con el título Epitome in Almagestum Regiomontanus construyó un observatorio en Nuremberg en 1471 patrocinado por Bernard Walther, además fundó una imprenta en la que publicó uno de los primeros calendarios completos con datos astronómicos sobre las posiciones del Sol y de la

Ma nel valutare i copisti tedeschi qualcosa era cambiato: era cambiato il giudizio su di loro, ed erano cambiati i copisti tedeschi. Le scoperte che Poggio Bracciolini e i suoi amici curiali avevano operato a Costanza, la possibilità che nei monasteri della Germania si potessero scoprire nuovi tesori veniva a ribaltare l'attenzione nei confronti della stessa Germania. "Librarius quidam" scriveva con un certa noncuranza Poggio, come se fosse di secondaria importanza citare i nomi di questi rozzi copisti che sicuramente non avevano ancora aderito alla sua riforma scrittoria; "quidam secretarius cardinalis Ursini"

Praha: Národní knihovna, 2002. - 155s., 13 obr. pøíl. The work was aimed at exploring the life story of Melchior Krupek, an outstanding Polish aristocrat, and analysing his library. Melchior Krupek - His Life and Activities Melchior Krupek entered the cultural history of Poland as book lover and owner of a noteworthy humanist and Renaissance library. The chapter gives a basic profile of the library and a listing of preserved books. In total 108 book volumes were successfully identified representing 119 bibliographical positions. Books from the collection were preserved at the Piarist Library in Podolinec, at the National Library in Prague and at the Jagiellonian Library in Cracow. Two prints were found at the National Library in Warsaw. All books are easy to be identified being uniformely bound and provided with owner´s heraldic supralibros. The chapter Book Bindings of the Collection Analysis of the Library Collection as Regards Content forms the central part of the work. It gives a detailed assessment of the books from the preserved part of the collection from the viewpoint of individual scientifical branches. Melchior Krupek as adherent to the Calvinist reformed Church held in his library a large number of theological works - especially by authors of the same theological orientation.

Extractions: Den tyske astronomen og astrologen Johannes Kepler er mest kjent for sin oppdagelse av de tre prinsippene om planetenes bevegelsesbaner. Med dette gjorde han det klart hvordan planetene er ordnet i forhold til hverandre og bekreftet tidligere astronomers teorier. I tillegg til hans banebrytende arbeid med Tycho Brahes, utrettet Kepler en hel del mer: Keplers ideer førte til en forandring innen fysikken der gamle, geometriske beskrivelser av himmelen ble erstattet av moderne, dynamisk astrologi ved å bruke konseptet med fysiske krefter. Innen vitenskapen må derfor Kepler bli sett på som en viktig person, og dette er grunnen til at jeg tar for meg Keplers liv, teorier og påvirkning innen vitenskapen astrologi. I dag tar de fleste det som en selvfølge at jorden ikke er flat, at jorden ikke er sentrum i universet og at planetene går i ellipseformede baner, men det er faktisk noen banebrytende personers fortjeneste! Johannes Kepler sa en gang "By the study of the orbit of Mars, we must either arrive at the secrets of astronomy or forever remain in ignorance of them."

Extractions: American biochemist who received the 1961 Nobel Prize for Chemistry for his discovery of the chemical pathways of photosynthesis. Called the Calvin Cycle, he described the "dark reactions" of photosynthesis occuring through the night turning carbon dioxide into sugar. Using the carbon-14 isotope as a tracer, Calvin and his team mapped the complete route that carbon travels through a plant during photosynthesis, starting from its absorption as atmospheric carbon dioxide to its conversion into carbohydrates and other organic compounds. In doing so, the Calvin group showed that sunlight acts on the chlorophyll in a plant to fuel the manufacturing of organic compounds, rather than on carbon dioxide as was previously believed. Martin Julian Buerger U.S. crystallographer and minerologist who made significant contributions to the theory of finding the arrangement of atoms in crystals and devised or improved many of the standard methods, techniques, and instruments of modern crystal-structure analysis. In the 1930s revised the powder camera into its present form. He invented the precession method of x-ray diffraction analysis now commonly used for obtaining the unit cell and space group of a crystal.. In 1952, the first counter diffractometer designed especially for measuring the intensities of the diffraction from single crystals was built in Buerger's laboratory, which in 1961 was converted into the first automated diffractometer. He wrote a number of books on crystallography.

Extractions: Magyar Könyvszemle 1991. 113116. A közelmúltban igyekeztem tisztázni a hazai könyvnyomtatás feltûnõen korai alapításának körülményeit. Ennek keretében történt annak bemutatása, hogy Hesst Magyarországra Kárai László közbejöttével feltehetõen Vitéz János prímás hívta, aki a budai mûhely megindulását is támogathatta. Az esztergomi érsek és Mátyás király idõközben bekövetkezett összeütközése azonban szinte lehetetlenítette a fõpap korábbi, feltehetõen nagyvonalú terveit a nyomda mûködését illetõen. Bár az elsõ hazai nyomtatvány, a Chronica Hungarorum eredeti ajánlása az elsõ levélen kikövetkeztethetõen egykor Vitéznek szólt, az õ 1472 augusztusában bekövetkezett halálát követõen azonban Hess a kiadvány elsõ füzetének külsõ levélpárját (a +a ) eltávolította. A Chronica szövegét (a levél) újraszedte, és ismét kinyomtatta, a Vitéznek szóló ajánlás helye azonban az elsõ levélen üresen maradt. Az alábbiakban kísérlet történik az eddigiekben összefoglalt hipotézisnek, vagyis a hazai könyvnyomtatás Vitéznek tulajdonítható megindításának közvetett bizonyítékokkal történõ alátámasztására. Ezen belül külön hangsúlyt kapott annak bemutatása, hogy a hazai humanizmus eme vezetõ alakjának milyen kapcsolata volt, ill. lehetett az akkoriban megszületõ tipográfiával. Alig néhány esztendeje, hogy a nemzetközi nyomdatörténet egyik igen jelentõs dokumentuma immár a szakmai köztudatba is bekerült. Arról az 1455. március 12-én, Bécsújhelyen írt levelérõl van szó, amelyben Enea Silvio Piccolomini számolt be Juan de Carvajal bíborosnak az elsõ nyomtatott bibliáról. Az itáliai humanista ebbõl kész íveket látott, sõt megemlítette a példányszámot is, amely egyes források szerint 158 (alighanem 150 helyett), mások szerint 180. Gutenberg korai és legfontosabb alkotásának, az ún. 42 soros Biblia (B42) kiadásának ezt az emlékét Enea Silvio, a késõbbi II. Pius pápa levelezésének egyik, a vatikáni könyvtárban található kézirata õrizte meg, de szövege nyomtatásban csak 1947-ben látott napvilágot.
