Chemical-Physical Society

In 1869 the Chemisch-Physikalische Gesellschaft (CPG, Chemical-Physical Society) was founded by the chemist Heinrich Hlasiwetz and the physicists Josef Loschmidt, Josef Petzval and Josef Stefan. Aims of the association were to further the development of chemistry and physics and to disseminate chemical and physical knowledge. This was to be achieved by ... 

Good relations existed between VOCH and the Chemisch-physikalische Gesellschaft (Chemical-Physical Society), whieh has been deseribed above.

Hlasiwetz, Heinrich, a prominent Austrian organic chemist, was born in Liberec (Reichenberg) in Bohemia, studied in Prague and Vienna, was professor of chemistry at the University of Innsbruck since 1854 and at the Technische Hochschule in Vieima since 1867. He was one of the founders of the Chemisch-physikalische Gesellschaft (Chemical-Physical Society). For his biography see e.g. Lexikon (1988), 206 see also Rosner (2004), 250-253. 

A number of chemical journals existed even before the chemical societies were founded. Yet most of the professional and scientific associations in the world have considered publication of their own journal a top priority and the chemical societies are not an exception as displayed in Table 15.2 and Figure 15.1. Table 15.2 also provides information on the first year (and last if appropriate) of publication of the societies journals. As analysed further below, in some cases the societies adopted an already existing periodical and the first year of publication thus precedes the founding year of the society. In most cases though, the society began to publish its own journal or journals immediately or within a few years of establishment. In some societies there even was a need to issue more than one journal for various reasons discussed in the proper chapter. A society without a journal was an exception, but it did occur. For instance neither the Austrian Chemical-Physical Society nor the Danish Chemical Society started to publish an in-house journal in the period analysed in this book.

Of course, many other professional societies have played their part in this successful reaching out between specialisms. As outlined above, the big metallurgical societies have broadened resolutely, and the American Physical Society and American Chemical Society are now much more hospitable to their members in industry than they apparently were 30 years ago.

Henry Barton, who had worked in Kemble s molecular spectroscopy research group at Harvard, was an influential scientific administrator in the early 1930s. In 1931, he became director of the American Institute of Physics (AIP), the recently founded consortium of five American physics societies. William Buffum, an officer in the Chemical Foundation, was influential in providing considerable financial support for the chemical community and for the Journal of Physical Chemistry, edited by the maverick Cornell University chemist Wilder Bancroft. 103... 

Lewis and Randall s Thermodynamics and the Free Energy of Chemical Substances used a notation different from Continental notation, necessitating a standardization in notation by a committee set up jointly by the Faraday Society, the Chemical Society, and the Physical Society.

In his professional capacity, he is a member of the Danish Physical Society, serving as the board member of the Division of Atomic and Molecular Physics from 1980 to 1989, and as Chairman from 1987 to 1989. Jens is a member of The Danish Chemical Society where he was a board member from 1989 to 1992, and served as Chairman of the Division for Theoretical Chemistry from 1981 to 1985. He is also a member of The European Physical Society, The American Physical Society (fellow), and The Danish Natural Science Academy.
