Beschreibung:

Theoria motus corporum coelestium in sectionibus conicis solem ambientium Author: Gauss, Carl Friedrich Place: Hamburg Publisher: Frid. Perthes et I.H. Besser Date: 1809 Description: xi, [1], 227, [1], errata pp. Text in Latin. (4to) 28.5x23.5 cm (11¼x9¼"), original wrappers. First Edition. Important astronomical work by the noted mathematician, containing "an analysis of the problems arising in the determination of the motions of the planets and comets from a limited number of observational data" (PMM 257 note). Norman 879 notes that "In this work Gauss systematically developed the method of orbit calculation from three observations he had devised in 1801 to locate the planetoid Ceres, the earliest discovered of the 'asteroids,' which had been spotted and lost by G. Piazzi in January 1801." See Dibner Heralds of Science 114n. Lot Amendments Condition: Wrappers and spine strip lost or decaying; some very minor spotting and soiling to contents, endpaper and blank leaf torn at corner, edges of some pages uncut, with fraying and miniscule tears on edges; good internally deserving of rebinding. Item number: 314125
