Página 120 - ... manufacture of it and the residual oil I have described, on a commercial scale, I have devoted a great deal of time to the study of those conditions which are calculated to lead to the most desirable results. In this attempt I have received much help from Mr. J. Brown, FCS, which I have the pleasure to acknowledge.
Página 270 - A cup-shaped radiometer similar to the above, but having the convex surfaces black and the concave bright.

Página 101 - Respecting this colour-change, we make out : — (1) that it arises from increased structural absorption with elevation of temperature, the more refrangible increment increasing at a greater rate than the less refrangible ; and (2) that the only necessary concomitant is alteration of atomic potentiality — a change from the white towards the black end of the metachromatic scale signifying atomic recession, and a change from the black towards the white end, atomic approach. (1) In support of this...
Página 270 - ... attracted. These experiments show that the repulsive action of radiation on the convex side is about equal to the attractive action of radiation on the concave side, and that the double speed with which the fly moves when no screen is interposed is the sum of the attractive and repulsive actions.
