Apparent Weight of Photons / Effect of Gravity on Nuclear Resonance [Both original offprints of these landmark physics – experiments are loosely inserted inside something really scarce: the original, printed thesis of Glen Anderson Rebka, Jr.: “Gravitational Shift of Frequency” – with a handwritten note in pencil on cover: “& other papers” (these other papers are the original offprints described in this position here)].
First Edition of both offprints and the original edition of Rebka’s Thesis. Cambridge, Harvard, 1960-1964. Quarto (20 cm x27 cm). Pagination: “Apparent Weight of Photons” pages 337 – 341 from Physical Review Letters (April 1, 1960) / “Effect of Gravity on Nuclear Resonance″page 539 – 540 from Physical Review Letters (November 2nd, 1964). Original Offprint / Stapled. Very good condition with some minor signs of wear only. Even though no sign of it, these original offprints come from the library of Robert Vivian Pound. The two original offprints are accompanied by xeroxed reviews of the “Clock Paradox” and the Pound-Rebka-experiments “dependence of the Mössbauer effect in Fe” by C.W.Sherwin. Also included is a xerox of the original Pound-Rebka Experiment “Gravitational Red-Shift in Nuclear Resonance”.
