But then it will be asked why so remarkable an augmentation of the effect is produced by the increase of tension in the case of the soft iron bars. When we are able to answer this question in a satisfactory manner, we shall probably have a much more complete acquaintance with...
Page 73 - Since it appeared that the purest and densest vapour alone gave the greatest number of lines, it became of interest to examine the spectra of compounds consisting of a metal combined with a nonmetallic element. Experiments with chlorides are recorded. It was found in all cases that the difference between the spectrum of the chloride and the spectrum of the metal was that under the same spark-conditions all the short lines were obliterated. Changing the spark-conditions, the final result was that...
