LORENTZ, H.A.

Le Phénomene découvert par Hall et la Rotation électromagnétique du Plan de Polarisation de la Lumière.

Harlem, Les Heritieres Loosjes, 1889. Lex8vo. Orig. printed wrappers. Uncut in orig. printed wrappers. Wrappers with tears and some loss. Some marginal tears to the first 15 pages.. In "Archives Néerlandaises des Science Exactes et Naturelles. Redigée par J. Bosscha", Tome XIX. V,478 pp. and 10 plates. Lorentz's paper: pp. 123-152.

First appearance of Lorentz' paper on the Hall-effect.

"In the 1880’s Lorentz’ continuing interest in electro-magnetism was reflected in a paper on the force between two current elements regarded from the point of view of Continental electrodynamics, and in another on the Hall effect and the electromagnetic rotation of the plane of polarization of light."
