Abstract

The article describes the context and content of the correspondence from November 1925, so far overlooked by physics historians, on the Planck law and the Bose statistics between Władysław (Ladislas) Natanson and Alfred Landé and the effects of this interaction.
The article publishes for the first time the translations from German into Polish of two letters from Natanson and Landé.
