Arnold Sommerfeld's Mathematical Theory of Diffraction marks a milestone in optical theory, full of insights that are still relevant today. In a stunning tour de force, Sommerfeld derives the first mathematically rigorous solution of an optical diffraction problem. Indeed, his diffraction analysis is a surprisingly rich and complex mix of pure and applied mathematics, and his often-cited diffraction solution is presented only as an application of a much more general set of mathematical results. The body of Sommerfeld's work is devoted to the systematic development of a method for deriving solutions of the wave equation on Riemann surfaces, a fascinating but perhaps underappreciated topic in mathematical physics.This complete translation, reflecting substantial scholarship, is the first publication in English of Sommerfeld's original work. The extensive notes by the translators are rich in historical background and provide many technical details for the reader. A detailed account of the previous diffraction analyses of Kirchhoff and Poincaré provides a context for the striking originality and power of Sommerfeld's ideas.The availability of this translation is an enriching contribution to the community of mathematical and theoretical physicists.

The theory of the top, originally made public as a lecture by Felix Klein at the University of Goettingen in 1895, was improved by Klein's collaboration with Arnold Sommerfeld. This volume provides a thorough and insightful account and includes recent advances.

The Theory of the Top. Development of the Theory in the Case of the Heavy Symmetric Top is the second in a series of four self-contained English translations of the classic and definitive treatment of rigid body motion. Introduction to the Kinematics and Kinetics of the Top, Volume III.

The lecture series on the Theory of the Top was originally given as a dedication to Goettingen University by Felix Klein in 1895, but has since found broader appeal.

In dem Werk sind die Abhandlungen der Bayerischen Akademie der Wissenschaften reproduziert, in denen der Mathematiker Arnold Sommerfeld die Erweiterung des Atommodells von Niels Bohr vorschlagt. Mit einem wissenschaftshistorischen Essay als Einleitung.

The Theory of the Top was originally presented by Felix Klein as an 1895 lecture at Goettingen University that was broadened in scope and clarified as a result of collaboration with Arnold Sommerfeld.
