ISBN10: 3030480380, ISBN13: 9783030480387, [publisher: Springer International Publishing] Hardcover Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Produced by an award-winning translator of Henri Poincaré, this book contains translationsof several seminal articles by Poincaré and discusses the experimental and theoretical investigations of electrons that form their context.In the 1950s, a dispute ignited about the origin of the theory of special relativity and thrust considerable notoriety on a paper written by Henri Poincaré in 1905. Accordingly, Part I presents the relevant translations of Poincaré's work showing that radiation carries momentumand the covariance of the equations of electrodynamics, the continuity equation for charge,and the spacetime interval. Part II then discusses investigations by Thomson,Becquerel, and Kaufmann of electrons in diverse contexts; contributions of Abraham,Lorentz and Poincaré to a theory of electrons that includes Lorentz transformations andexplains the dependence of mass on velocity; and finally, Poincaré's exploration of the relativityprinciple, electron stability, and gravitation while rejecting absolute motion (ether) andan electromagnetic origin of mass. Part III contains the 1904 article by H. A. Lorentzpresenting his transformations.This book will be a fascinating read to graduate-level students, physicists, and sciencehistorians who are interested in the development of electrodynamics and the classical ...
