MAGNETIC RESONANCE.
RABI, ISIDORE, ET AL. 1898-1988. "The molecular beam resonance method for measuring nuclear magnetic moments: The magnetic moments of 3 Li6, 3Li 7, and 9F19." Offprint from: Physical Review, vol 55, 1939. (268 x 201 mm). 526-535 pp. Original green printed wrappers.
WITH: 10 offprints from The Physical Review on magnetic moment, nuclear spin and nuclear magnetic resonance, as listed below. 1934-1945. Original printed wrappers or without wrappers as issued. Fine apart from light browning. Complete details available upon request.
Provenance: From the library of Emilio Segrè (1905-1989), discoverer of the element technetium, and recipient of a share of the 1959 Nobel Prize for his work on the antiproton; Jeremy Norman.
MEASURING NUCLEAR MAGNETIC MOMENTS: FIRST SEPARATE EDITION of the first complete accounting of the Rabi team's magnetic resonance experiments. Rabi won the Nobel Prize for physics in 1944 for devising the resonance method of magnetic moment measurement, which is not only of central importance in physics, but is also the foundation of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which revolutionized medical imaging in the last decades of the twentieth century. Rabi received his doctorate in physics from Columbia University in 1927, and afterwards traveled to Europe to study physics with Bohr, Pauli, Stern and Heisenberg. From Stern, Rabi learned the molecular-beam method, which appealed to him so much that he established his own molecular beam laboratory at Columbia in 1931, shortly after being appointed to the university's physics faculty. Working with some of the best young American physicists of the time, Rabi "refined the molecular-beam apparatus so that he could measure the spin, or rotation, of the sodium nucleus in 1933; measure the magnetic moment of the proton and neutron of the heavy isotope of hydrogen in 1934 [nos. 1-2 above]; refine the beam by the "T-method," in which the magnetic field itself could be made to rotate to determine signs (positive and negative) within the field; and in 1937, begin the development of the method of magnetic resonance that led to his Nobel Prize-winning experiments. As Hans Bethe observed, there were three key events in the formative years of nuclear physics, one of them being the discovery of the quadrupole moment of the deuteron. Without Rabi's development of the magnetic resonance method to a state of considerable precision, this discovery would not have been possible (Magill The Nobel Prize Winners: Physics, II, p 513).
