I have been looking for Boltzmann's papers (in english) and had no luck. Anyone knows if they were translated at the first place, and if yes where to find them?

Four of Boltzmann's prominent papers are translated into English on pages
- Ludwig Boltzmann: Further Studies on the Thermal Equilibrium of Gas Molecules (from Sitzungsberichte der kaiserlichen Akademie der Wissenschaften, Vienna, 1872)
&
- Ludwig Boltzmann: On the Relation of a General Mechanical Theorem to the Second Law of Thermodynamics (from Sitzungsberichte der kaiserlichen Akademie der Wissenschaften, Vienna, 1877)
&
- Ludwig Boltzmann; Reply to Zermelo's Remarks on the Theory of Heat (from Annalen der Physik, 1896)
&
- Ludwig Boltzmann: On Zermelo's Paper "On the Mechanical Explanation of Irreversible Processes" (from Annalen der Physik, 1897)
of
- Brush, Stephen G, and Nancy S Hall. The Kinetic Theory of Gases: An Anthology of Classic Papers with Historical Commentary. London; River Edge, NJ: Imperial College Press ; Distributed by World Scientific Pub., 2003.

$\begingroup$ If anyone is interested, some of Brush's translations are available online. For example: the response to Zermelo. $\endgroup$ May 1, 2018 at 13:05
