Page 430 - I find is due to the fact that the collodion film "frills," the mesh, however, being so small that it can only be detected with the highest powers of the microscope. Commercial ether and collodion should be used. If chemically pure ether obtained by distillation is used, the film does not frill...
Page 485 - The author wishes to acknowledge his indebtedness to the Government Grant Committee of the Royal Society for the means of purchasing some of the apparatus used in these experiments, and also to Prof.
Page 93 - An infinite mass of homogeneous incompressible fluid acted on by no forces is at rest, and a spherical portion of the fluid is suddenly annihilated...
Page 57 - ... have at any given instant a number of free electrons and a certain number of ions, but if we were to follow one electron throughout its motion we should find it associated on the average with a mass intermediate between that of an electron and that of a molecule Ultimately at very low pressures the carriers would be all free electrons.
Page 59 - ... electron will decrease as it recedes ; in accordance with the above view we may imagine a sphere drawn round the parent molecule of such a radius that the electron will be effective in forming a negative ion only for impacts within this sphere. It is probable that the circumstances of an encounter as well as the relative velocity will determine the effectiveness of a collision, so that only a fraction of...
