  2. The motion
  3. Heliocentric theory (De Revolutionibus)
  4. Theory of gravitation

{\underline{\boxed{\bold{Answer}}}

Heliocentric theory (De Revolutionibus) is the name of Copernicus Theory.

De Revolutionibus :-

  • De Revolutionibus is the seminal work on the Heliocentric theory of the astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus of the Polish Renaissance.
  • The book, first printed in 1543 in Nuremberg, Holy Roman Empire, offered an alternative model of the universe to Ptolemy's geocentric system, which had been widely accepted since ancient times.
  • Copernicus initially outlined his system in a short, untitled, anonymous manuscript that he distributed to several friends, referred to as the Commentariolus.
  • A physician's library list dating to 1514 includes a manuscript whose description matches the Commentariolus, so Copernicus must have begun work on his new system by that time.
  • Most historians believe that he wrote the Commentariolus after his return from Italy, possibly only after 1510

Nicolaus Copernicus :-

  • Nicolaus Copernicus was a Renaissance-era mathematician, astronomer, and Catholic clergyman who formulated a model of the universe that placed the Sun rather than Earth at the center of the universe.
  • In all likelihood, Copernicus developed his model independently of Aristarchus of Samos, an ancient Greek astronomer who had formulated such a model some eighteen centuries earlier
  • The publication of Copernicus' model in his book De Revolutionibus orbium coelestium (On the Revolutions of the Celestial Spheres), just before his death in 1543, was a major event in the history of science, triggering the Copernican Revolution and making a pioneering contribution to the Scientific Revolution.
