FIRST PRINTINGS of Hertz's articles on wireless telegraphy. "Hertz determined that electromagnetic waves were longer than light waves and showed that they were in complete correspondence with the waves of light and heat in the transverse nature of their vibration and their susceptibility to reflection, refraction and polarization. Hertz did not pursue the practical applications of his investigations, which in the hands of Marconi and others led eventually to the development of airwave technology" (Norman, p.386). This volume of the Annalen also contains articles by Bunsen, Planck, Woigt and Röntgen.
