Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the discovery of X-rays by Wilhelm Conrad Rontgen in 1895. Rontgen was a German physicist and professor of physics at the University of Würzburg. The author explains how Rontgen discovered X-rays while experimenting with cathode rays and high voltage in a vacuum tube. He named them X-rays because they were unknown and mysterious. The book includes copies of Rontgen's papers on his discovery, including the first announcement of the discovery in 1895 and a second paper with further observations. The book also includes commentary by other scientists, such as Stokes and Thomson, who contributed to the early understanding of X-rays.
