Conrad Habicht 1914 Manuscript on Special Relativity and Einstein 1907 Reframing of the 1905 Theory
Hector Giacomini
This note examines an apparently unpublished manuscript on special relativity written by Conrad Habicht in 1914 and made available online by the ETH-Bibliothek Zürich in December 2…
Henri Poincare Saint Louis Lecture of 1904: Publication, Dissemination, and Historiographical Implications
Hector Giacomini
Henri Poincare Saint Louis lecture of 1904 occupies an important place in the prehistory of relativity. In it, Poincare formulated the principle of relativity in general terms and…
Lorentz, Poincare, Einstein, and the Genesis of the Theory of Special Relativity
Hector Giacomini
.This article reexamines the genesis of special relativity by situating the contributions of Lorentz, Poincare, and Einstein within the scientific, documentary, and editorial conte…
The Rapid Arrival of Josiah Willard Gibbs's Elementary Principles in Statistical Mechanics in European University Libraries
Hector Giacomini
This note offers an overview of how Josiah Willard Gibbs's Elementary Principles in Statistical Mechanics, published simultaneously in London and New York in 1902, spread through E…
Scalar Field Cosmologies With Inverted Potentials
B. Boisseau, H. Giacomini, D. Polarski
Regular bouncing solutions in the framework of a scalar-tensor gravity model were found in a recent work. We reconsider the problem in the Einstein frame (EF) in the present work.…
Bouncing Universes in Scalar-Tensor Gravity Models admitting Negative Potentials
B. Boisseau, H. Giacomini, D. Polarski +1
We consider the possibility to produce a bouncing universe in the framework of scalar-tensor gravity models in which the scalar field potential may be negative, and even unbounded…
