摘要
著名物理学家、重要物理学事件是物理学史研究者的主要研究对象。著名物理学家的思想情感有时难以把握;重要物理事件的发生过程曲折、微妙,而世人所传往往是真伪交织。多位科学史理论家高度肯定,科学家之间信函的重要史料作用。这一观点尤其适用于物理学史研究。本文以物理学家之间的重要信函为主要依据,展示信函在解决物理学史问题时的特殊作用,有助于深入理解信函的史料价值。在此过程中,水到渠成地解决了几个较为重要的物理学史具体问题。
The famous physicists and important events of physics are the main research objects of the historians of science and technology.Sometimes,the thoughts and emotions of the famous physicists are difficult to grasp.Process of important research in physics events is tortuous and subtle,and the stories of them are often intertwined by the true and the false.Several historians of the history of science are highly affirmed,the letters between scientists have irreplaceable decisive role in solving difficult problems in the history of science and technology.This view is especially suitable for the research on the history of physics.Based on the important correspondence between physicists,the special role of letters in solving the history of physics is displayed,which could be helps to understand the historical value of these letters.In this process,some important specific problems for the history of physics are clearly solved.
