Book excerpt: Excerpt from The London, Edinburgh, and Dublin Philosophical Magazine and Journal of Science, Vol. 15: January-June, 1883 The result Of the above - mentioned memoir, SO far as it regards the subject Of the present, may be summed up as follows -if 7' is the Obstacle to the propagation Of electricity which is Situated at the point Of passage between the elec trodes and the gas, the electric - resistance in a column Of gas Of unit length, and l the distance between the electrodes, 7°]7°1l will be the sum Of the resistance which the electricity must overcome in order to pass from one electrode to the other. Of these values, r increases continually in proportion as the gas is rarefied, while during the same time undergoes incessant diminution. From a judicious interpretation Of the experiments which have been made, especially those Of Hit torf, it follows that the augmentation Of the first Of these quantities and the diminution Of the other continued until the gas had arrived at the greatest rarefaction it was possible to Obtain by means Of the mercury pump employed. In the space exhausted Of air, r acquires such a value that it is im possible for the current to surmount it. If, then, the current cannot traverse a vacuum, it is not because the value T1 of the resistance has become too great, but because r is augmented to such a degree that the current is incapable Of surmounting it. Several properties Of gases with respect to the passage Of electricity show that this interpretation Of the resistance which the Oppose to its propagation is really the only true one.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The London and Edinburgh Philosophical Magazine and Journal of Science, Vol. 12: New and United Series of the Philosophical Magazine, Annals of Philosophy, and Journal of Science, January June, 1838 This work, says the author, will be divided into two parts. A The first memoir will contain a series of experiments on the determination of the temperature of the maximum density of pure water, and on the dilatation of that fluid from this maximum to its boiling point, and on the other hand to - 13° Cent. The second will consist of the results of the experiments on the maximum density of sea-water, and on the general course of the phenomenon in aqueous, saline, acid, alkaline, and alcoholic solutions of different degrees of concentration. Extract from the First Memoir. From 1832 and 1833, I have been occupied in the investigation of these subjects, and have laid some of the results before the Academy. Since that time I have repeated and modified the experiments, so that I believe I have now arrived at results more certain and general. I proved that all saline solutions have, like pure water, a maximum density. I at first only wished to know whether sea-water did or did not possess a maximum. It is known that Marcet of Geneva and Ermann of Berlin, the only two physicists who have of later date devoted themselves to experimental researches on this subject, did not find a maximum; we shall see the reason of this in the second memoir.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from London and Edinburgh Philosophical Magazine and Journal of Science, Vol. 5: New and United Series of the Philosophical Magazine and Journal of Science, July December, 1834 Having observed, whilst I was using my dipping-needle with its magnetic deflector (noticed in No. 20, Third Series of the London and Edinburgh Philosophical Magazine: vol. iv. p. 81), that the ratio of the magnetic forces was not uniform, I was induced to enter upon a series of experiments for the purpose of investigating these forces. Of the various methods I adopted, I think it may be sufficient for me to describe that only which seemed on the whole to be most satisfactory and decisive. To the extremity of a horizontal beam, delicately balanced on knife-edges, a magnetic bar was attached, with its axis in a vertical direction, and a counterpoise was suspended from the other end of the beam. Immediately under the attached or suspended magnet, and in the same vertical line, another similar magnet was placed, in a glass tube, in which it could be moved freely up or down, a graduated scale having been fixed to the tube to mark the exact distance between the contiguous poles of the two magnets; and when the poles were brought very near each other, mica, paper, card-board, &c., were placed between them, 2, 4, or 8 pieces being pasted together to obtain the duplicate ratios of the distances.
