Notes[edit]

  • In 1814, the Philosophical Magazine merged with the Journal of Natural Philosophy, Chemistry, and the Arts, otherwise known as Nicholson's Journal (published by William Nicholson), to form The Philosophical Magazine and Journal. Further mergers with the Annals of Philosophy and The Edinburgh Journal of Science (EJS) led to the retitling of the journal in 1840, as The London, Edinburgh, and Dublin Philosophical Magazine and Journal of Science. In 1949, the title reverted to The Philosophical Magazine.
  • Von 1788 bis 1794 gab Köhler in der Craz’schen Buchhandlung Freiberg das Bergmännische Journal heraus, ab 1792 wurde er von seinem Schwiegersohn Christian August Siegfried Hoffmann unterstützt. 1795 setzten sie die Reihe unter dem Titel Neues Bergmännisches Journal fort, die letzten Bände (3/1802 und 4/1816) betreute Hoffmann allein. 1790 und 1791 erschien – ebenfalls bei Craz – Köhlers Bergmännischer Calender.
  • Von 1803 bis 1805 war Adolph Ferdinand Gehlen Herausgeber des Neuen allgemeinen Journals der Chemie (6 Bände), dass sich an das Allgemeine Journal der Chemie von Alexander Nicolaus Scherer anschloss, dass 1798 bis 1803 bestand. Von 1806 bis 1810 gab er als dessen Nachfolger und mit um die Physik erweitertem Programm das Journal für Physik und Chemie heraus (9 Bände). 1811 übernahm Johann Salomo Christoph Schweigger die Herausgabe des Journals für Chemie und Physik von Adolf Gehlen (1775–1815). Er selbst begründete als Fortsetzung dieser Zeitschrift das Jahrbuch für Chemie und Physik, dass er später dem Professor der Medizin Franz Wilhelm Schweigger-Seidel überließ.
  • The American Journal of Science (AJS) is the United States of America's longest-running scientific journal, having been published continuously since its conception in 1818 by prof. Benjamin Silliman, who edited and financed it himself. Until 1880, it was also known as the American Journal of Science and Arts. In early years, the journal was often referred to as "Silliman's Journal", and the publication became associated with Yale University due to his long tenure there (1804–1853). The editorship long remained in the family of prof. Silliman, as he was assisted by his son, Benjamin Silliman, Jr., from 1838. On the death of the elder Silliman in 1864, he was succeeded as chief editor by his son-in-law, James Dwight Dana, and then from 1895 till 1926 by Dana's son Edward Salisbury Dana. Associate editors included the botanist Asa Gray and the zoologist Louis Agassiz.
